 | [Aqara Vibration Sensor](https://amazon.com/gp/product/B07PJT939B) | This was a pita to add to my HA.<p> Once your HA is scanning for new devices, press and hold the button on the sensor for ~5 seconds until the lights flash, then you have to press it again (but don't hold it, press and release) every second or two until HA finds it.<p>Even when I did manage to add it, it kept falling off of the Zigbee mesh, even though other devices within 10 feet of it maintain stable connections. At least it was cheap. | 2025-08-07 | |
 | [Aqara Water Leak Sensor](https://amazon.com/gp/product/B07D39MSZS) | Minuses - <p>The manual was unclear on how to put it in pairing mode - press the water droplet icon firmly until the hidden light flashes three times, then let go.<p>After two months of usage I don't recommend it - it drops out of my Zigbee mesh a lot, even though it's five feet from a Smartthings motion detector that has no problems.<p>Pluses - <p>These ship ready to go - no messing with the battery, just press the button and you can add it to your Zigbee mesh. | 2025-08-07 | |
