Hey guys,
Was super disappointed to learn that Wyze stopped churning out new door/motion sensors. I’d love to find something comparable in price that I could use with my HA setup. Right now, I’m running a handful and went to buy more last month only to be saddened by the news :(.
Does anyone have good recommendations on replacement options? No preference on Zigbee, Zwave, or other RF - I’d love to keep it as low cost (and aesthetically pleasing) as possible.
Thanks!
If you want to stay cheap then my advice is the Kerui door and motion sensors. They operate on the 433mhz spectrum.
I replaced my door/window sensors with Ecolink Zigbee sensors. They work great! And, ended up costing less than the Wyze sensors.
Wyze has a new version of such sensors, but they’re not selling them individually. In fact, you have to buy a 1-year subscription to their monitoring service, and you get a multitude of devices for free ($50 value). That in itself seems like a good value. One can add few sensors and the prices are rather reasonable. For example 3× windows sensors for $20, PIR Motion Sensors for $8.00 a piece. If one can make them work with 3rd party hardware, this package looks rather promising.
Thoughts?
