Review on πŸ”‹ GE Bluetooth Battery-Powered Wire-Free Detection by Brittany Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No light switch required!

I recently installed a closet light for my mother and decided to give her a small smart home. The light bars are driven by C by GE connectors and I decided to try this to power them on. Setup was fairly painless and shouldn't be difficult to set up going forward, but be aware that if you really want to change the settings, you'll have to press the physical button on the sensor for the app to find it, which can be annoying , if you mount it on the ceiling or in an inaccessible place. The only issue I have with the sensor is that you can't manually select which devices you want to turn on. It powers everything in the room it's assigned to in the app, meaning you can't turn on items in different "rooms" or just select multiple items in a room. An easy workaround by just creating a new room/area in the app and moving the items you want to control with the motion sensor there, but that wouldn't be as ideal as selecting devices manually. Either way, it's probably a matter of personal preference. Overall, the sensor is as advertised and easy to recommend.

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
