I use them to automate my bathroom lighting and entry way lights. In most cases, I have them operating Lutron Caseta smart switches, but also tied in a wifi plug for an LED strip. This is just a really nice "quality of life" thing to have. These units can operate as either a basic motion sensor or as a motion sensor and a z-wave repeater. The instructions on how to join them to your network as a basic motion sensor are provided in the supplied manual. I noticed my units weren't repeating and learned that I had to join them in a slightly different way to get that. (Press & hold button for 5 seconds for repeater mode, press 3x for basic motion sensor.) If you want to use them as a repeater, it's absolutely necessary to use USB power as it will kill your batteries quick. I haven't used battery operated mode, I bought these specifically because they used USB power. My units came with the CR123 battery, I think older models may have used a different battery. This is generally good for longer lifespans. Unfortunately for you, I haven't tested it much so I can't really offer much insight into battery life. I really dig the magnetic mount, it's so useful! In both my bathrooms, I was able to mount them on my vanity, which was fairly unobtrusive & discrete, as opposed to mounting to sheetrock. There's a fair bit of flexibility in the sensor's general direction too, thanks to the creative cup-like mount. The size is quite satisfying, I don't think "gawd that huge sensor" at all. I've had issues here and there with my z-wave network, but these have generally been reliable. As for cons? They aren't pet immune, my cats will frequently trigger the lighting when they enter the room. I also wish it had USB-C instead of micro-USB, I just find USB-C more physically reliable. (That said, this device will see infrequent plugins so it's less of a concern I guess.) I also found them slightly slower when I had them in regular motion sensor mode, but as a repeater they are almost instantaneous. (We're talking sub-second in both cases, though.) I do sort of wish they had a multi-sensor (i.e. temp, humidity, light, motion) in the same form factor as it might have saved me another sensor that I needed. On the other hand, having another sensor closer to the shower (for humidity detection) has also been beneficial. I've heard rumors that future firmware updates may add light detection capabilities, but that hasn't yet been confirmed. Overall, I'm glad that I've invested into this particular model. It has some unique things that you just won't find in other competing sensors. Zooz support is pretty good and they are active in the home automation community. It's always good to see a US based support system, too. Overall, I think this motion sensor should be up for your consideration! Review: Simple, works! - Simple device and works reliably. It's design is actually kind of cool and is unobstrusive, people really don't notice it. It's not rated for outdoor use but I have it mounted on our front porch facing towards the guest house door and out the side of the porch to the far side of the house. Sensitivity turned up all the way so it senses movement when people leave turning flood lights on after sunset and before sunrise and it will catch some movement outside of the porch area if someone approaches. It is under the porch roof so it's well protected from the elements and we live in SC so it gets cold but rarely below 20 degrees. Have not broken 28 degrees yet, curious to see how it will work on those rare 10-15 degree days we get every few years. Range is limited outside of the porch since it's partially blocked by the roof and handrails. ## Features - FAST DETECTION: Reports motion to your Z-Wave smart home system reliably. Great solution for light automation and security monitoring. Z-Wave hub required, sold separately. NOT supported by Wink, ADT, Vivint, or Alarm.com. - EXTRA FEATURES: Adjustable motion sensitivity and retrigger time. Built-in Z-Wave range test tool for easier network troubleshooting. Vibration reports on select hubs only. - 2 POWER SOURCES: Runs on a single battery for up to a year (depending on traffic and settings) OR on micro USB cable (NOT INCLUDED). Acts as signal extender when included with USB power. - FLEXIBLE DESIGN: Extremely small and light, the sensor sits in a perfectly shaped magnetic mounting base for precise and firm positioning. - CERTIFIED SECURE: Uses the latest authenticated S2 Z-Wave protocol and AES-128 signal encryption. 800 Series Z-Wave Plus chip for longer range and increased battery life. This device is Long Range ready with extra 1300 feet of coverage if your hub supports this feature. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07FHL7J11 | | Antenna Location | Walkway, Garage | | Battery Average Life | 365 days | | Battery Description | Lithium | | Best Sellers Rank | #30,719 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #130 in Motion Detectors (Electronics) | | Brand | ZOOZ | | Color | White | | Compatible Devices | SmartThings Home Assistant Z-Box Hub | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 265 Reviews | | Frequency | 908.42 MHz | | Manufacturer | ZOOZ | | Maximum Range | 100 Meters | | Mfr Part Number | ZSE18 | | Model Number | ZSE18 | | Mounting Type | Wall Mount | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Metal batteries required.

It's design is actually kind of cool and is unobstrusive, people really don't notice it. It's not rated for outdoor use but I have it mounted on our front porch facing towards the guest house door and out the side of the porch to the far side of the house.

Range is limited outside of the porch since it's partially blocked by the roof and handrails. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A reasonably priced Z-Wave motion sensor *by O***E on January 5, 2022* yup! it's only indoors. And it's sensing range is pretty limited (though, I have to admit, I haven't tried to change the sensitivity yet.) And the battery was dead when I received (Amazon made me whole on that) It's basic, it works and it's pretty much the only one out there. I think Zooz did a good job. I really liked the little length of white 14 AWG for the neutral connection. I didn't have to make one up. My controller is a Universal-Devices ISY 994i with Z-Wave. Yeah, that took a little fiddling around. So I left a How To on their forum. My stars aren't really fair because It may very well have good range and good battery life, but that was my experience so I have to go with it. I think you'll like it. Caveat. I think Z-Wave is second rate and I'm really disappointed that Smarthome (Insteon) has totally dropped the ball. They could have owned this market. ## Frequently Bought Together - Zooz 800 Series Z-Wave Long Range S2 Motion Sensor ZSE18 800LR with Magnetic Mount, Works with SmartThings, Z-Box, and Home Assistant - Zooz 800 Series Z-Wave Long Range S2 On Off Switch ZEN76 800LR, White | Simple Direct 3-Way and 4-Way Solution (Works with Regular Switches, No Aux Switch Needed) | Z-Wave Hub Required --- ## 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/75300011-zooz-800-series-z-wave-long-range-s2-motion-sensor](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/75300011-zooz-800-series-z-wave-long-range-s2-motion-sensor) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
