Great Device That Needs Tweaking
I’ve been incredibly excited for this to come out. I was able to purchase an FP1 model from Alibaba a few months back, which was never sold in the US, and it had promise but the motion detection capabilities were very lacking. I had to pair it with an Aqara motion sensor to get the best results. So when they talked about this version I was excited to see the updates made. Overall I really like this product but be warned, it’s not perfect and definitely needs to be tweaked, hopefully future software updates will fix some of the things I ran into when setting it up. You really need to set up your zones in the Aqara app before you start messing with it in Homekit. I was able to purchase 2 of these, one for my kitchen/living room and the other in my master bathroom to replace the FP1 and Aqara motion sensor. For the kitchen one I’ve set up 4 total zones to control my Homekit devices, the main one being in the kitchen where I have 2 NanoLeaf lightstrips under my cabinets. When you walk into the kitchen the lights will turn on and when you walk out they’ll turn off. Took a bit of time to get the zones worked out correctly but after messing with it I was able to get a good result. It’s not perfect as it sometimes doesn’t register that you’ve entered the kitchen or left but I’d say since tweaking everything in the beginning it works 90-95% of the time as I’d expect. In the master bathroom I set up 4 zones with 2 primarily being used to control devices. The bathroom area turns on the main lights from my Meross dimmer switch and the shower area turns on the shower light and shower fan with both regular Meross switches. Initial placement didn’t work out very well as the bathroom mirror seems to mess with the sensor so I moved it to be over the mirror to get it out of the sensor’s view and that seems to have fixed a lot of the initial issues I was having. The glass shower door seems to mess with it a little bit but overall like the kitchen one it’s working 90-95% of the time as I would hope. I think after some more software updates this will be even better over time. The motion sensing actually works really well when it’s functioning properly. It’s incredibly fast, even faster than the regular Aqara motion sensors. The design of the FP2 is better than the FP1 as it’s flatter and you can remove the cord from the sensor itself which uses USB C. The mount is very smart in my opinion as it is magnetic. So you get an adhesive sticker that you put the included metal disk on and your sensor sticks to the magnet which makes it so much more convenient to take off if needed. All in all I’m happy with the purchase but I will say it’s a bit overpriced. I was hoping for this to cost around $50 so when I saw $82.99 I was in shock, thankfully at launch they did have a 15% coupon that helped a bit but I’d say if you can wait I’d wait for the price to drop a bit.

Not very accurate.
This thing detects everything, but just people. Fans are people. Electronics are people. Even just air are people. And those things move around like ghosts. I have to keep using the app to remove new imaginary people.The set up is ok unless you need it for home assistant. The webkit only integration is garbage. It will just stop working and then you have to reset the whole thing, set up your zones, and start over.It would be nice if they had matter or anything other than homekit. You can’t rediscover this device once lost. It does work locally after setup. The app is not great since i have to manual search for the device each time. It’s a hassle and not worth the price.

Je suis très satisfait de l’Aqara FP2, notamment grâce à son excellente intégration avec Home Assistant via HomeKit. La configuration est simple et les zones de détection définies dans l’application Aqara fonctionnent de manière fluide pour détecter l’occupation. Le capteur est très précis, et il s’intègre parfaitement dans des projets domotiques avancés.Cependant, il y a quelques points à améliorer. Par exemple, il n’est pas possible de récupérer le nombre exact de personnes occupant une zone, ce qui pourrait être une fonctionnalité utile pour optimiser les automatisations basées sur la présence multiple.En outre, il est important de noter que ce capteur nécessite une alimentation continue, ce qui peut parfois rendre son intégration plus complexe si l’on souhaite éviter les câbles apparents. C’est un point à prendre en considération lors de l’installation, notamment dans les espaces où l’esthétique est importante.Aussi, les différents modes de détection (détection classique, détection de chute, et analyse sommeil) ne sont pas combinables et fonctionnent séparément. Bien que chaque mode soit efficace dans son propre contexte, pouvoir les utiliser simultanément serait un réel avantage.Malgré ces quelques limitations, c’est un excellent produit pour ceux qui recherchent une solution avancée de détection de présence et d’occupation. Je recommande vivement cet appareil pour sa fiabilité et son efficacité, surtout pour les utilisateurs avancés en domotique.

Eins vorweg, dieser Sensor ist Top 👍, wenn man erstmal verstanden hat wie man alles einstellt, dann ist der Sensor eine Bereicherung1. Der erste ist in der Küche und mit Homeassistent verbunden um komplexere Automationen mit fallback und Rückkehr Funktionen durchzuführen was wirklich sehr zuverlässig funktioniert momentan sind wir fünf Personen (Besuch über zwei Wochen) alle gehen kreuz und quer durch diesen Raum trotzdem hält er immer die letzte Person in dem Raum wichtig ist Kanten zu nehmen um den Raum und Arbeitsfläche, so entsteht auch kein ghosting, der Sensor entscheidet zusätzlich ob auch die indirekte Beleuchtung aktiv wird oder das Haupt Licht unter anderen ist auch eine Bedingung für tagsüber Musik abzuspielen oder zu stoppen.2. Der zweite ist für Keller (Fitnessstudio) und auch da wir kurz vorm betreten das Licht ein und ausgeschaltet und Musik abgespielt oder gestoppt.Für mich war es wichtig die KI aus zu lassen da kamen immer wieder Störungen manchmal wurde eine Person als Saug Roboter bezeichnet
