Zooz Z-Wave Plus Q Sensor ZSE11 | Beweging, temperatuur, vochtigheid, licht (Hub vereist)

Works really well with smarthings. Make sure you add the correct edge driver before adding it to smartthings.

Another high quality Zooz product. Purchased several of these to monitor temperature and humidty in a house with three HVAC zones. Used a calibrated hygrometer/thermometer to adjust each so that reliable readings were provided room to room. Very sensitive light sensor allows for automation of lighting. Motion detector can also be integrated with lighting or other routines via your Z-Wave hub. Highly recommend vs. the Aeotec sensor which is more expensive and, in my opinion, less attractive in the home.

I have two of these sensors and was hopeful they would meet my objectives. Unfortunately, the majority of the measurements suffer from poor accuracy and limited resolution.Motion:Motion detection is the most reliable of the ZSE11 features and works quickly and with good range and vertical and horizontal field of view. With ST device type handlers installed, there are options to raise/lower sensitivity as well as enable/disable an LED indicator light when motion is detected. I rate the motion detection solid 5/5. It's as good or better than several other z-wave motion detectors I have.Temperature:Out of the box, my sensors' temperature readings were consistently 3-4 degrees above actual air temperature. This in itself is minor and correctable by applying temperature offsets in the settings. But another limitation is that the frequency of the measurements is limited to 1 hour intervals or temperature changes of at least 1 full degree. Consequently, the data collection will not reflect temperature readings with high resolution. This is surprising given that temps are reported with precision to 1 decimal point. If actual temperature fluctuates +/- several fractions of a degree several times within a 1 hour period but never exceeds a net 1 degree change, then the ZSE11 will record NO change in temperature during the 1 hour period. Every other z-wave device I've owned for years is able to gather temperature changes at a much finer frequency/resolution. So it's shocking that the ZSE11 is so limited. Rated 3/5.Humidity:The out of box humidity readings for my two sensors were a stunning 15% above actual humidity. This was observed in a variety of settings within my home from the basement to the second story floor. The ZSE11 would even report humidity readings that were *higher than the outdoor ambient humidity* (during Summer which should be impossible) all while my home was being continuously air conditioned. Likewise, in a closed room with a 500W dehumidifier running, the ZSE11 would report higher humidity levels than other sensors reported in adjacent non-dehumidified rooms. To its credit, the sensor would detect actual changes in humidity seemingly fine, but it's just very disappointing that the accuracy of the measurements was so incorrect. No factory-new measurement instrument should ever be 15% off calibration. Also, as with the temperature readings, humidity measurements are only reported at 1 hour intervals or for changes of at least a full 1%. So again, humidity is measured to 1 decimal place, but the granularity of the readings is very limited. As with temperature, I find the ZSE11 to perform below average in measuring and reporting humidity as compared to other z-wave products. Rated 3/5.Illuminance:Of all the functions I wanted the ZSE11 to perform, this was the most anticipated but sadly most disappointing. The range of light detection is apparently from 0 to 100,000 lux. The light reporting threshold can be set from as low as 1 lux to as high as 30,000 lux. And the light measurement can be offset anywhere between -20,000 lux and +20,000 lux. I want to draw attention to the scale reaching into the tens of thousands of lux. Because I can't understand what type of use case or environment would involve such absurd levels. In case it's not obvious, I'm deeply frustrated by the poor performance of the light sensing capability of the ZSE11. It seems to be designed to monitor stadium lights, nuclear explosions, or solar output, things that would possibly involve thousands upon thousands of lux. HOWEVER , THIS SENSOR IS NOT ABLE TO DETECT SMALL LEVELS OF LIGHTING. More specifically, it cannot detect when a completely dark room transitions to a dimly lit room when natural sunlight arrives during the day. In fact, it consistently under-reports light levels even with normal artificial lighting fully turned on. Rooms with light levels well above 100 lux according to light sensors on various phones and cameras all produce lux levels below half their actual values when measured with the ZSE11. Most significantly, any low light levels which would normally register at or below ~40 lux are reported as 0 by the ZSE11s. This renders the light sensors nearly useless for any kind of illuminance-based automation (i.e. "activate lights only if room is too dark"). A little research will show that it's not unusual for homes to have areas with lux levels ranging from 50 lux to 300 lux. So it stands to reason that these sensors should be calibrated to handle light levels in those low ranges, rather than in the tens of thousands of lux. Also, unlike with the temperature and humidity issues, the light level inaccuracy CANNOT BE CORRECTED with an offset setting. This is because the sensor physically cannot differentiate below a certain level. Any offset adjustment will simply result in that value being falsely reported as the new minimum value (e.g. an offset of 50 lux will cause pitch black rooms to appear as being lit to 50 lux). I had such high hopes for the light sensing capability of the ZSE11, but I cannot imagine there are any worse performing z-wave light sensors available. Rated 1/5.Other:Despite the above criticism, the ZSE11 does offer some redeeming qualities. The support for micro-USB power is especially welcome as it eliminates the chore and annoyance of replacing sensor batteries. For me, this on its own justifies keeping the sensors as replacements for battery-powered motion sensors. Additionally, the ZSE11 will act as a z-wave repeater when configured with USB power. Setup went very smoothly for me although I have extensive experience with z-wave and ST device type handlers, so other users may form a different opinion.

Work great, a little sensitive, but can work around. Use with Hubitat hub.

Unfortunately it doesn't detect consistently in very good conditions in a hallway, and with loads of zwave nodes to connect to. Unfortunate as I love my zooz switches
