These are pretty good. Kind of larger than some other options, but you also get a lux sensor and temperature.

Connected straight to home assistant with zha, you get lux, occupancy, motion, temperature, as well as the ability to adjust sensitivity and led on/off.

Magnetic mount is a also nice feature. And it's hue, so it just works 😂.

Via Home Assist I used these to create a "timed motion sensor" but only when the dark in the room. Basically turn some smart lights on for e.g. 15-minutes but only when the room is dark.

alias: Motion Light
description: ""
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id:
- binary_sensor.hue_motion_sensor_1_motion
to: "on"
for:
seconds: 1
condition:
- condition: and
conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: light.living_room
state: "off"
- condition: sun
after: sunset
before: sunrise
- condition: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.hue_motion_sensor_1_illuminance
below: 8000
action:
- data:
brightness_pct: 15
target:
area_id: living_room
action: light.turn_on
- entity_id: input_boolean.livingroom_lamp_auto_off
action: input_boolean.turn_on
- delay:
hours: 0
minutes: 5
seconds: 15
milliseconds: 0
- condition: state
entity_id: input_boolean.livingroom_lamp_auto_off
state: "on"
- data: {}
target:
area_id: living_room
action: light.turn_off
mode: single


And with an override so if you press the Hue Switch it stops it turning off after 15-minutes:

alias: Disable auto-off on switch press
description: ""
trigger:
- platform: event
event_type: hue_event
event_data:
id: living_room_switch_button
device_id: 973323fbdfed73c57cc32696a407a81c
type: initial_press
action:
- entity_id: input_boolean.livingroom_lamp_auto_off
action: input_boolean.turn_off
mode: single


This is using a helper of input_boolean.

Occupancy?? You just blew my mind. Is it reliable, or on the slower end of updates? I haven't messed with zha yet but now I'm tempted to move all my hue devices that aren't lights to it.

I have them configured through hue hub and they turn the connected lights on in less than a second 99% of the time

These are amazing to automatically turn on lights by stairs when you're renting, or if the light switches are placed at locations where a sensor wouldn't work well.

As a motion sensor, this is one of the most reliable (and super efficient with its battery life) motion sensors I've owned. I am using it with Zigbee2mqtt and it updates the motion status almost instantly when it detects motion.

Occupancy is just a term they use, this is motion sensor at the end. If you want true occupancy, look at presence sensors (one popular choice is Aqara ones), but there are many affordable yet reliable options out there using mmwave radars and esp boards, which can be diy for less than $10. You just need an esp32, a radar sensor (ld2450 for example). They detect still presence very well. I put one in each room and never care to turn on/off the light anymore, light will stay on as long as I'm in there.
