I wonder if the size of the room plays a part in the delay. For me its very quick to wake up but its only in a small room where i'm probably 1.5-2 metres away from the sensor. If I had it in the living room which is larger I wonder if it would be a different experience.

@@techwithdavidolding I had one in my living room and after 3 days of testing and switching positions I returned it. It’s a wonderful device when it works as advertised. Zone detection would lag sometimes and other times it would detect quickly. I found myself tinkering with it instead of it making my life easier lol . I searched for solutions and watched couple of KZfaq videos but in the end it wasn’t reliable enough for me to keep it. I figure this device works more accurately and faster in a bedroom, hallway or garage. Large living areas not so much.

I had device configured to detect 3 zones, lights would have to turn on . everything off when I left living room area and back on when I returned. I only had issues with it triggering lights on (designated zones) I tried everything and it was random, sometimes it would work and sometimes it wouldn’t. What did work without errors is when I would leave and come back, response was quick.

@@techwithdavidolding so I have one set up with a zone at the foot of the steps leading upstairs. At the foot of the steps is also a half bath, sometimes if you walk out of the half bath and quickly go to the steps the lights won’t trigger. The FP2 sensor is about 20’ away. The reason I was thinking it was the delay is because the issue is inconsistent. 9/10 times it works fine.

A global version of the FP2 device? I'm not sure. I ordered it directly from a local retailer called JB HiFi -- who typically stock either global or Australian specific variations of devices.

Yep I've updated my device. I haven't set the corner mounting option as its not in the corner but the center of the wall. (but I'll give it a try) Yeah I found the edges helped.... I haven't heard of an exit zone. That's a new concept to me.. I'll see if I can configure one that could explain why.

Yeah I need to order a Zigbee USB Dongle first so that my raspberry Pi (which is running HA) can detect the devices.

@@techwithdavidolding my point is: if you have a Hue bridge (which I assume), you don’t need a zigbee stick. Just add the bridge to HA and the lights will be added.

@@Girbie1973 Ahh yeah I don't have one of those. When I purchased the lights I didn't do enough research. I didn't know what Zigbee or bridges were and assumed it would connect over wifi like all my other lights 😅

@@techwithdavidoldingif you have a lot of Zigbee devices, perhaps you can look into smlight slzb-06(they have multiple variant)

Yeah I haven't been blown away by this product. It works most of the time.. but there's still that 10-20% where it gets it wrong and detects ghosts. Is there a better sensor you think I should check out instead? It's fine for my home office and a bit of novelty, but really I want to install sensors all around my house. I'm yet to find a sensor which works 100% of the time and can detect you even if you're sitting at a desk or on the couch for hours with little movement.
