It supports real-time notifications and smart automation, enabling seamless control of your smart devices and enhanced home security. ## Description The Tapo T100 Motion Sensor offers seamless home automation by automatically controlling devices like lights and triggering security alarms, making daily tasks more convenient and efficient. It enhances home security by detecting motion and alerting users to potential intruders. The sensor can be remotely controlled and shared through the Tapo app, allowing family members to monitor the home anytime, anywhere. The Tapo Hub H100 is required for operation, providing extended battery life and wider coverage using Sub-1G Low-Power Wireless technology. The Hub supports up to 64 sensors, features a 90dB ringer with 19 tones, and ensures continuous automation even without internet connectivity. *Note: This device operates exclusively within the specified Sub-1G band. Please note that different regions support different frequency bands. Ensure that the devices or hubs you intend to use are compatible with the same Sub-1G band. Review: 3-Cheers for Tapo Sensors & Switches! Highly Responsive and Reliable - Tapo has quickly become my all-time favorite brand in home automation. The battery life on their wireless sensors is super, and the connectivity is almost always on-spot. I've had this motion sensor in a high-traffic area for over a year and have not yet received a low-battery notification. I haven't had anything fail yet and as long as the network connection is solid, they're very responsive!! These are Chineese-owned, so whatever telemetry data they're sending over seas can be questionable.. Especially at the pricing point most Tapo devices sell at. It just seems like a high quality, great value for your money! Review: Works very well - Use to turn on and off Tapo smart plug for a water heater recirculation pump. Works very well. Easy setup in the app. ## Features - REQUIRES Tapo Hub- To utilize Tapo motion sensor T100, a Tapo hub H100 (sold separately) and a secured 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network connection are required. Tapo T100 communicates with the hub via the Sub-1G Low-Power Wireless protocol, which provides extended battery life for the sensor and a wider coverage area compared to Wi-Fi. The Tapo Hub H100 can connect up to 64 sensors simultaneously and includes a 90dB ringer with 19 different ringing tones. The Tapo Hub also enables the use ofSmart Action for sensors and other Tapo devices even when the network is disconnected and is highly responsive. - Wide Range Detection- The device is capable of detecting motion within a 120 degree angle and up to a range of 23 feet (7 meters). - Adjustable Viewing Angle and Sensitivity- Its compact size makes it effortless to install, and it comes equipped with an adjustable body and customizable detection range options of 3m, 5m, and 7m. - Smart Action- Smart Actions incorporate Tapo T100 as a common precondition. Control your lighting or other Tapo smart devices by deploying a motion sensor. - Long-Lasting Performance- Using only a single CR2450 battery (included), the device can operate for up to 2 years, assuming that motion is detected less than 100 times per day. - Real-Time Notification- Using the Tapo App, it is simple to establish a custom time frame, and the device will activate the Hub alarm and send notifications via the Tapo App whenever motion is detected within the designated time period. - 3M Adhesive or Magnetic Mounting- Using the 3M adhesive and magnetic base, the T100 can be installed indoors in almost any desired location. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BYH66C3S | | Antenna Location | Walkway, Terrace, Garden, Sidewalk, Lawn, Driveway, Garage | | Battery Average Life | 2 years | | Battery Description | Alkaline or Lithium | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,709 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #22 in Motion Detectors (Electronics) | | Brand | Tapo | | Built-In Media | Tapo T100, Quick Start Guide, Battery CR2450 x 1, 3M adhensive | | Color | White | | Compatible Devices | Tapo-compatible products and devices with Alexa integration | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 507 Reviews | | Item Type Name | Motion Sensor | | Item Weight | 0.03 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | TP-Link | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer | | Maximum Range | 7 Meters | | Mfr Part Number | Tapo T100 | | Model Number | Tapo T100 | | Mounting Type | Wall Mount | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Metal batteries required.

Highly Responsive and Reliable *by S***L on December 28, 2025* Tapo has quickly become my all-time favorite brand in home automation.

Works very well. Easy setup in the app. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great *by E***S on June 2, 2024* Edit: Looks like geofencing was turned on in the Tapo app today :) Edit2: I really love these things. I have 3 of them now. My oldest one is a year and a half old and no issues with the battery even though I walk by it many times a day. It's great. I have always liked Kasa products for my smart home. In the past I was not able to find good motion, humidity and temperature sensors for the Google Home side of things. I think this Tapo line is fairly new and i only noticed it recently, however, the Tapo line appears to fill in some holes that existed in their lineup. Important note, this device does require a Tapo hub, sold separately. I have a bunch of quite old Kasa bulbs and switches that were integrated in the old Kasa app. I was worried that this new Tapo app would not talk to the legacy Kasa app but that worry was unfounded. The Kasa app and the Tapo app linked to each other seamlessly. I can see all my legacy devices now in the Tapo app and it brought over all my automations. Connecting the motion sensor to the Tapo app was straightforward. Important exception, the Tapo app doesn't have geo-fencing yet. So be aware if that's a major selling point for you it isn't enabled in Tapo, yet. The motion sensor works pretty much the way you would expect. It's quite sensitive, I can activate it just by waving my hand at it from 10 feet away. It also comes with a stick on pad and a nifty ball and socket connection that lets you aim it just the way you need. It's a nicely implemented little motion sensor. On a side note, I used to have all kinds of issues with my smart devices and recently I specifically created, on my router, a separate AP that only uses 2.4ghz. Then when I connect devices that require 2.4ghz I use that AP (I named it router2.4 to make it easy to identify). I recommend that and most routers support doing it. ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link Tapo Motion Sensor, Requires Tapo Hub, Long Battery Life w/Sub-1G Low-Power Wireless Protocol, Wide Range Detection, Adjustable Sensitivity, Real-Time Notification, Smart Action, Tapo T100 - TP-Link Tapo Door Sensor Mini, REQUIRES Tapo Hub, Long Battery Life w/ Sub-1G Low-Power Wireless protocol, Contact Sensor, 15mm Wide Gap Allowed, Real-Time Notification, Smart Action (Tapo T110) - TP-Link Tapo Smart Temperature and Humidity Sensor T310, White, Requires Tapo Hub, High-Accuracy Swiss-Made Sensor, Real-Time Notifications, Free Data Storage, Long-Lasting Performance --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/519851887-tp-link-tapo-motion-sensor-requires-tapo-hub-long-battery](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/519851887-tp-link-tapo-motion-sensor-requires-tapo-hub-long-battery) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
