Hello, do you know if this Door Sensor, which is Wi-Fi, can trigger Alexa routines? I am positive that same can be done with its Zigbee alternative. I have added mine (Wi-Fi) to Alexa and created my routine. When I manually push the button to trigger the routine, the routine works fine. But automatically same cannot be done.. Can you please help?!

I think you can with a bit of trick. eWelink and Sensibo should talk via IFTTT. Your eWelink account needs to be upgraded to a premium account and after that you can set up a rule in IFTTT that if the DW2 unit senses window opening, it turns off the AC via Sensibo. This premium account if new for me, I have not actually tested in before.

To be honest, I don't see a difference between the two. Functionality is the same. I do not have a full lifecycle test, but I would assume that the DW2 will go through the batteries much more quickly. Zigbee sensor may reach to places where your wifi is too weak. But that is pretty much all.

Hello Varga, I have bought multiple sonoff dw2 devices and I haven’t been able to connect any of those. I get the error code 6304 - what ever that stands for. I have tried connecting them through my iPhone, my iPad and an android phone. All with the same disappointing result. I find the devices in the ewelink Bluetooth list, but after it tries to connect to the WiFi it bails our after just 20 sec with that error code (6304). Since I can’t set the device to compatible mode, which usually works around every problem with sonoff, I really don’t know what to do. So you have any tips or ideas on what the problem can be?
