By request we're back again with another deal on a Xiaomi Smart Home Sensor. As usual Priority Shipping has been made free for this deal and will automatically be selected at checkout for Australia.
This sensor is designed to detect movement when there is a vibration, tilt or drop. It requires a Zigbee hub like the Aqara Gateway, works with the Aqara/Mi Home app, Apple HomeKit, has adjustable sensitivity and can be linked with other sensors for more advanced tasks.
For example when a vibration, tilt or drop is detected the Vibration Sensor can be set to trigger an alarm to the Aqara Hub with a notification sent to your phone. It could be put behind a cushion so that when you sit down the TV or fan turns on, or send a notification when a partially opened window is opened or closed further. It's also a good alternative to the door/window sensors as the sensitivity can be adjusted.
