Motion Sensor TP-Link Tapo T100

Smart Motion Sensor automatically turns lights and other Tapo devices on when it detects movement, providing hands-free control for hallways, bedrooms and other rooms. It works with the Tapo app to create Smart Actions that activate multiple devices, and can send immediate notifications or trigger an alarm if motion is detected while you are away.

Advantages

The sensor offers adjustable sensitivity and a 120° field of view with detection up to 7 meters, reducing false triggers and allowing customization for different spaces. It supports magnetic mounting and includes adhesive for flexible installation on shelves, walls or ceilings. With up to 2 years of battery life (based on 50 triggers/day) the device ensures long-lasting operation without frequent battery changes.
