Sam_Bam:
I have a V1 motion sensor in the back of my mailbox, but it just shows “MOTION” it never clears. It shows “normal” battery, but only one bar of signal. Did you place a mirror or something in the box to help it trigger better (how is it mounted)?
I have a V1 door sensor on the lid that works fine, but I always worry about the battery (tiny CR1632 battery) running out, and would love to go motion sensor that has that bigger battery (lasts MUCH longer). When they open the box I have a wyze bulb that lights up to tell me there is mail. Thanks for your help!!
Update:
This thread kind of describes my problem with the motion sensor:
Seems like it is probably a distance problem from the mailbox to the Wyze v2 camera that has the bridge in it. The mailbox is about 55 feet from the bridge. The door sensor on the lid seems to function properly to the same bridge though. The old V1 door sensor used to fail frequently too till I put the bridge on a short USB extension cable and moved it a couple of feet up from the camera itself.
