I bought 6 of the new Room sensors that connect up to the Thermostat. These things look REALLY good! [image] [image] [image] The magnets in these things are REALLY strong! The batteries were really strongly attracted to them (both in the sensor and the sensor stand). You can easily decide whic…

Yes and no, the motion sensor on the Room Sensors will not trigger a home/away state like the motion sensor used to on the thermostat if thats what you are referring to. This would be a cool feature though as having multiple sensors around the house would greatly decrease false Away triggers.

Oh boy. So the “feature tip” mentioning “motion-sensing comfort” doesn’t trigger Home from Away? Dud. I’m also curious how, per the feature tip… “Only the occupied room will be heated/cooled”. I’d call it a challenge from my thermostat to do anything room specific…no matter how much is understan…

[image] Brewcam: “Only the occupied room will be heated/cooled” Agreed, that is a very misleading statement. I could see it spun if the system allowed you to only use the temp from one sensor, but it will always balance with the thermostat so not even true from that perspective. Misleading m…

Can anyone explain the purpose of these room sensors? I’m assuming Wyze Thermostat doesn’t automatically control any dampers, so even if it detects one room is hot vs others, it can’t actually fix the imbalance. All it can do is blast more cold air into all rooms; which simply reduces all the temp…

[image] petschke: Other than monitoring the temp, how is this worth the money when I can just go into thermostat and force it to cool because I’m in a room that’s warmer than I want. Because some people do not want to have to monitor this constantly and manually change things all the time dep…

Sorry @carverofchoice …this just doesn’t compute. Are you telling me the Wyze folks created a whole new device because “some people want that”?? I don’t really see this being much more than something else to see the temperature on. If I have a room on the 2nd floor that tends to be warmer in the …

@Brewcam , commenting ONLY on the motion sensing State Change feature you mentioned. I am still testing other features, or lack thereof. Suggest you get confirmation on my findings from others before making a decision: [image] Brewcam: The original firmware allowed one to set Away mode. When t…

[image] SlabSlayer: To my surprise, the motion detection to switch thermostat state works with the sensor. I have one sensor, Included in Comfort Control, Auto Comfort on, Home Mode only, Balanced. I manually set my Thermostat to Away State. I then walked in front of the sensor and it immediate…

So let me get this straight…the built in motion sensor has been disabled, but now we can buy a new external motion sensor…is that what you are telling me?
