I need a better vacancy detector

To answer my own question. Looks like you have to resolder 3 pins in the sensor. Will check it out later when I have time.

I’ve got the kb5noeto version one. Detection works quite well actually, but it takes forever (sometimes up to 5 minutes) before it clears “Presence” to false" and “Motion state” to none.

I’ve given up on these things. Detection is far too sensitive and wide. No matter what I set the detection settings to it sees through my Gyprock walls and triggers on movement in adjacent rooms. I’m going back to PIRs.

I have the same one (kb5noeto) and this configuration has been working perfectly after long battle.

{
    "fading_time": 10,
    "indicator": "ON",
    "motion_detection_mode": "only_pir",
    "motion_detection_sensitivity": 4,
    "static_detection_distance": 5,
    "static_detection_sensitivity": 4
}
