So I went ahead and ordered some PIR sensors, found a script that works pretty well (through limited initial testing) here and I think I am pretty happy with this two-for-one setup. The mqtt pir sensor is quite quick to respond (I have some battery powered Zwave PIR sensors and they have a 3-5 second lag, whereas this is within 1 second) The only thing I need to figure out now is how to get this python script to always run. I am sure it is a stupid question and I don’t mean to hijack the thread, just thought someone in this thread might know the most efficient way. Could it be added to the ‘presence.service’ file? Still new to all this.
