About this item
- All you need: dependable motion alerts, quick light reports, real-time temperature readings, and vibration notifications sent straight to your z-wave hub. Use them to automatically trigger smart lighting, security sirens, or your connected thermostat.
- And more: all data is transmitted to your system using encrypted signals, protected by tamper alerts. With the multifunctional led, you can access temperature readings and test your z-wave signal straight from the device. Plus you get over 20 advanced settings to customize the sensor and make it your own!
- Hub required: this sensor will work beautifully with any open z-wave system like smart things, Vera, nexia, home center lite, or home seer. It is not supported by wink or alarm panels ( pulse, alarm, and others). this is the z-wave version, not for apple home kit.
- Ultra small: install the smallest 4-in-1 sensor anywhere without ruining the view. It attaches to any flat surface with a single screw or a piece of adhesive (both included). hide it well or show it off using the flexible mounting bracket and customizable led indicator.
- You're covered: this is a z-wave plus certified and ul listed device created and built in Europe from quality materials. Support portal and documentation are available on the Fibaro website so if you ever need help, just ask!

Product Description
Inspired by the beliefs of the ancient Egyptians, Fibaro has designed the world's smallest, wireless motion sensor shaped it like a cat's eye. The Fibaro motion sensor combines four useful functions into a tiny, wireless Z-Wave motion sensor! It functions as a motion sensor, temperature sensor, light sensor and a vibration (accelerometer) sensor, thanks to its built-in accelerometer. The multicolor LED Pupil of the Fibaro motion sensor informs family members if it has detected any motion or the current temperature of a room. Set the color and its intensity to your liking and, as soon as you enter a room; you will know immediately what the temperature is. It can also trigger pre-set scenes such as lights turning on when you walk in the room. Please note that some of the advanced features of this device may require the Fibaro home center 2 (HC2) or HC lite controller. Our motion sensor is compatible with most Z-Wave controllers such as HC2, HC lite, Vera, Nexia, urc, Clare controls and home seer.

CHOKING HAZARD -- Small parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

As far as setup and general easy getting the Fibaro connected to my z-wave network, the instructions in the manual proved to be extremely accurate and helpful. There was no issue getting it linked up and it showed up in my home automation hub (home assistant) without issue.
As a preface I've actually bought 5 of these little guys, and for those wondering they're about the size of a golfball, maybe a tad bit smaller. The CR123A battery included in the packaging seems to have given me a good battery life, in my case using default settings the one I bought over a year ago is still going strong without issues. For those who have battery issues, I'd suggest ignoring the battery percentage values reported by your z-wave hub and only bother to change the battery if you're actually experiencing issues with the device not sending motion events.
In my extreme case I also sat the settings so that it would detect and send a z-wave motion detection signal every 2 seconds, that way I could more accurately represent in my software if I was actually in a room or not and track movement throughout my apartment. So far the devices have lasted ~45 days on battery and show no signs of failing.
The only wish I have is that these sensors had humidity detection, but if it means keeping them small and having a decent battery life I do enjoy them the way they are.
I'm not sure what the definition of 1 Lux is, but I can see a whole lot of variation in human detectable light between what this sensor reports as 0 Lux and 1 Lux. And at higher light levels, I can't humanly tell the difference between what's reported as 200 Lux and 1500 Lux. It's sensitive enough for what I'm using it for, but I really wish I could find a light sensor that was far more sensitive in the extreme low light range.
Pros: compact shape- Spherical device makes for infinite positioning, which is super helpful when trying to fine tune where\when you want this to trigger. Adjustibility- this device does have a significant set of parameters accessible through the ST app. COOL: The eye of Sauron look is neat. BUT
CONS: 1) setup- is a NIGHTMARE. Whatever you do, DO NOT deviate from the steps. If anything goes wrong, you'll need to completely remove the device from the smart things app. Then reset it. Then try and add it again. Once I got it set up, it worked... For about 3 days. 2) power mode- apparently this device enters a "low power mode." When this happens, it loses connection with the ST hub, app. I couldn't get it to reconnect no matter what I did. It continuously showed as "working" but didn't work. 3) reconnect is nearly impossible- to effectively reconnect the sensor to ST, one must completely remove the zwave device from the hub, which requires one to move the item code to the hub (now that it worked just fine in the room I had it, but refused to be removed until I moved it closer). So, I removed the device and reconnected it. 4) connection- when connected, the ST hub all too often didn't register any changes to the device, if made in settings, or even that the device was working. For example, the motion sensor blinked to show motion detection, but never reported this to the ST app. Sometimes the app would show motion detected when none existed. 5) support: This was the ultimate deal breaker. The documentation for the device needs some translation help. The support website requires a login and then isn't especially helpful. I read through all the FAQs and information pertaining to ST (and z wave). Most of the items were 2 or 3 versions out of date. I get it. These guys don't work for Samsung. That's cool. But it HAS to be one of the most, if not THE MOST prolific integrations they have. Good think sorry for this would be fairly up to date. Nope.
Summary: I like the IDEA of this device, but the execution, to paraphrase Saturday Night Live, is "not ready for prime time." If you have ST, or don't like tinkering to try and get things to work, move along.
HUGE shout out to Samsung for discontinuing their ST sensor. \S I'll keep looking for a decent replacement, but this one ain't it.

Reviewed in Mexico on October 18, 2019
Temperature detector works fine, motion detector, with all fine tuning possible of configuration items, was not performing as well as the spec say, the range is short (about 12 ft) , and not very wide angle.
The shock detection function is just annoying. I disabled it.
The color feedback is fun but not very useful....
