Aqara Motion and Light Sensor P2

To connect the sensor to Aqara Home, the Hub M3 is required.

Explore the Aqara P2, a smart device with both infrared motion and light sensors, using the advanced Thread protocol. Featuring long-lasting dual CR2450 batteries with Aqara's low-power technology, it ensures prolonged use. Compatible with the Matter ecosystem, the P2 enables diverse and rich automation scenarios, enhancing your smart home experience with precise control over lighting and more.

Features:

● Native Matter Support: With the arrival of the Matter era, users no longer need to worry about different ecosystems and technical protocols, and only need a Matter app, Matter-compatible Thread Border Router and Matter Controller. This means that connections across ecosystems and platforms become simpler and easier.
● Independent Light Sensor*: your solution for unmatched smart home control and automation, designed to keep your Aqara Home app running locally, even without internet. With the M3, experience seamless device binding for Aqara Thread devices and enjoy unparalleled network robustness through hub backups and mirroring. Should one hub fail, another takes over, ensuring continuous operation. The M3, a unique Matter controller, will soon support direct device-to-device connections, making your smart home reliable even in the absence of the hub.
● High-Precision and Wide Angle**: Explore P2 featuring a Wide Viewing Angle, with a 120° detection angle and up to 7 m (extendable to 10 m with Aqara Home) range using PIR Tech. Includes a 360-degree adjustable stand for precise motion detection in targeted areas.
● Locally Convenient and Energy-Efficient: Saving energy is no longer a hassle or effort. Let P2 effortlessly and swiftly make adjustments and automate tasks. For example, it automatically turns on lights and exhaust fans in the bathroom upon detecting someone, and switches them off when no one is present. No more worries about inadvertently leaving home energy sources on.****
● Local and Remote Alarm***: Place the Aqara Motion & Light Sensor P2 in key locations at home to help detect and monitor anomalies. Receive alerts via app or speaker, and link with other smart products to create a more comprehensive security setup.****
● Easy to Install and Place in Everywhere: The sensor includes an adjustable stand***** for easy wall, ceiling, or horizontal installation, allowing precise P2 positioning for specific area monitoring, like over a desktop. The Motion and Light Sensor P2, powered by a 2*CR2450 Lithium battery, which makes its battery life one of the longest among Matter over Thread sensors.******
● Exclusive Features of Aqara Home: After connecting the P2 to the Hub M3 and integrating it with the Aqara Home app, it will gain enhanced functionalities. These include improved automations, customizable detection timeout and sensitivity settings, motion indication, a local alert system, and more.*******

Automations:
(* Please note: the automation functionalities may vary depending on the Matter ecosystem. The examples below may require connecting the device to the Hub M3 and Aqara Home app.)

1. Granular light control for more comfort and energy saving

IF THEN

IF Motion is detected at the desktop
WHEN Every day from 18:00 to 23:00
THEN Turn the desktop light on

Description

Install the P2 in each zone of the room which is lit independently, and the
lighting will follow you around the room: the desktop lights will be turned on right when you sit by your desktop, the bar counter strip will light up when you start making the drinks and more.
