GE CYNC Wireless Smart Motion Sensor, Battery-Powered, Bluetooth Motion Sensor with Ambient Light Detection, Works with CYNC Smart Plugs, Switches and Bulbs, White

This is about the fifth GE Cync product Iv purchased and I love their products because of their great phone support. Support is great I recommend GE Cync products and a good value too!

I bought this item to turn on the lights in my basement. I often head down the steps with a full load of laundry in my hands so motion detection is ideal. and I have to say it has worked flawlessly. It took a little fiddling to align the sensor so that my feet on the steps turn on the lights before I'm more than 3 steps down, and I had to set the time before the lights would turn back off a little longer in the app so the lights stay on long enough, but now its perfect. The light sensor keeps the lights off during the day. Great product. I can also turn them off and on with voice command via Google Home if desired

I bought this sensor and a Cync smart bulb for my entry way light.After trudging through the remarkably unintuitive app (I have lots of smart devices and have used many of these types of apps, so I generally know what I am doing). I had both devices installed. Both were seen by the app and working.BUT.... the motion sensor would not show any indication that it was detecting motion and it most certainly wouldn't turn on the smart bulb....After resetting and re-pairing both devices several times and even going so far as to buy another sensor (assumed the 1st one was faulty). I realized that something was up...I spent over an hour on the phone with their tech support. Then another 30 minutes with their 'senior technician' They could not figure it out...Incidentally, I did discover during this call, the motion sensor has no led to indicate that it is on. Nor to show that it is detecting motion.. (something that pretty much every motion sensor I have ever seen, has).The tech support guy sent me an email to let me know that he was passing along the issue to the technology team... (along with all of the logs from my app.)I heard nothing for almost 3 weeks. Then I got an email: "We have identified the issue you are experiencing as a currently known issue. Our technology team is working toward a resolution that will restore the intended function."WOW!! So they sell me a product (twice) that they know doesn't work and then waste hours of my time on it. Then wait 3 weeks to tell me that it doesn't work... If the tech person had told me this at the beginning of the 90 mins I was on the phone, at least I wouldn't have wasted that part of my life....Suffice it to say - I have no interest in using any of GE's 'smart' products....

The product seems to work exactly as designed. I'm using it to turn on a Cync wall switch when I open my closet doors instead of needing to turn the light on manually. It turns the lights on with motion and then light goes off after a minute of no motion.I didn't intentionally purchase this motion sensor for this purpose though. I wanted to use it to turn on lights only when I had motion in my garage and not turn off when motion wasn't detected. Since it wouldn't do that I decided to keep it and replace the light switch on my closet.If this switch showed up in Alexa I could have got around the problem, but it doesn't.

I was skepical at first, but these ge sensors have really grown on me. I got one as a gift, then ended up buying two more. I use them outdoors, and they're all survived a Colorado winter so far. Batteries are still going strong and the network and alexa connections for both the sensor and bulbs seems strong and less troublesome than other brands. There are three motion sensor settings. The mid setting is perfect for me. It actually detetcts what I want, but it doesn't go off for ghosts or wind. Having a seperate sensor might not seem like it's necessary when there are other bulbs out there that have a motion sensor on them already, but if your bulbs are in a fixture, then the seperate sensor makes a ton of sense because you can point in the right direction much easier than one that's fixed in the base of the bulb. I recommend this product.

Setting up the motion sensor is a breeze and a cost-effective alternative to Phillips' offerings. However, pairing them with GE light bulbs can be a bit tricky. It often takes two to three attempts to connect each light bulb to the motion sensors successfully. To make it work, I had to reset each light bulb and update them before they could be paired with the sensors. There is a slight latency when it detects motion and turns on the lights, and the field of view is not as wide as I hoped for. The field of view is probably about 90 to 95° wide. Overall, it does the job but doesn't exceed any expectations.

I got this for my Mom for Christmas. Her garage does not have a light switch for the light inside the garage at the outside door. She has been keeping a flashlight at the entrance so when she comes in and it is dark, she can walk through to the inside door, where the light switch is.I paired this with the C by GE 3-Wire On/Off Toggle Style Smart Switch (no neutral required). The install was simple, download the C by GE on your smartphone, install the light switch (listed above) and configure the light switch (you will need bluetooth for the initial configuration of the light switch. Then go to where you want to have this sensor, ours is about 20 feet from the light switch and mount the magnet that holds the sensor in place to the wall. Again, using your bluetooth on your smartphone, you will pair this and configure the sensor (in order to make any changes to the sensor, you will need your bluettooth and the application). You can set how long the light will remain on, how sensitive the motion sensor is, and what kind of light condition you want it to trigger the light.All in all, works great and Mom is happy that she does not need the flashlight anymore.

Esta excelente el articulo funciona muy bien.Saludos

malfunctions terribly. perfect place for this is a garbage bin where it bellongs
