We agree!! Everything Presence One for bedrooms, Everything Presence Lite for multi-zone applications. Apollo MSR for discrese location - bathrooms. Have you seen the new molded cases on the Everything Presence sensors and the new setup application? Takes the game up a notch.
Great review, Aaron! The Apollo and EP sensors are easily my favorites. It continues to be frustrating that adding a device via Matter often (always?) results in reduced functionality or customization.
Great review Aaron! Glad to see that the Apollo MTR-1 & MSR-2 were top picks as I'm using both. I'm using an MSR-2 in my bathroom and it even senses through the glass shower. This is really great as it won't turn off the lights while taking a shower. Using the MTR-1 in my garage with the zone detection to control the lighting based on location. I've got LED overhead lights for the entire garage area and I've also got an LED task light over my workbench.
A lot of people do not realize that some the new 5G equipment emit Millimeter waves. I believe that the MMW power of these is a less than those of other equipment. It would be a good subject to research.
@@MrSupersidewinder Can you elaborate on why not? I have a pretty precise EMF/RF meter, and it doesn’t show elevated levels (at least for Apollo) if that’s your concern.
@MichaelBurko Nothing good can come from exposure to these mm waves, do the deep dive research... I'd bet that if you could hear them you would understand...🤠 Automation is not worth health risks imho.

Yeah, I think a molded case is on the way! I looked through the docs for the setup, but never tried it yet
Apollo sensors are great! They are very affordable and reliable - I have six and have never had any issues with them.
Agreed - really solid devices!

Thanks! Yeah, I had a long rant about Matter in here, but decided to cut it out haha

I need to do that in my garage - that's a good application. I was using an Aqara motion sensor for a while, but not anymore since the battery died
I just watched the original the other day! Great timing.
Perfect haha
Great video again, Aaron!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, xiaomi affiliate link is broken
Thanks, I'll check it

Interesting, I didn't know that!
Why would anybody bring mm waves into their home🥵

I stood in front of 18 active sensors for quite a while for my last video 😬
