  • banipal753 on 16/08/2018 - 13:36

    Does this connect to an Australian plug?

    • bdl on 16/08/2018 - 13:48

      Yes

    • walaj on 16/08/2018 - 16:29

      yes but…

      A) the hub wont plug into a socket with a power switch - it is too big.
      B) the zigbee power switch /may not/ plug into an australian power socket depending on where the switch is.

      Both devices have chinese prongs - same size as australian, but no insulation on the prongs, and are upside down (hence get in way of switch.

      I have the hub powered by an extension cord.

    • PlasticSpaceman on 16/08/2018 - 16:40

      Yep - it comes with a standard Chinese plug which is basically an Australian one upside down so it will go into an Australian socket just fine. Be aware that there are some Chinese plugs where the earth pin may not fit our sockets, but in this case it's fine. the only issue I've found is:
      1. With the gateway, depending on the wall socket, it might cover the socket switch itself preventing it from being turned on. To solve this, plug in a double adapter first.
      2. With the "smart socket" used to control a light/appliance, it has a safety feature that prevents a two pin plug from being inserted into it ie it needs an earth pin. If the light/appliance you ant to control doesn't have an earth pin, just put a double adapter into the 'smart socket' first.

    Guys, how easy is it to configure it for a novice?
    I have never done it before and want to give a try once.
    Please suggest. Ta

    • bdl on 16/08/2018 - 13:48

      Easy. Install the app on your phone/tablet and it works.

    • Terocket on 16/08/2018 - 15:02

  • noone on 16/08/2018 - 13:56

    What battery does the sensors use? Are they internal rechargeable batteries?

    • No on 16/08/2018 - 14:03

      They all have different batteries. They use the small watch type batteries, not rechargeable.

      • banipal753 on 16/08/2018 - 14:17

        Any idea how long the batteries last?

        • bbtlovebbt on 16/08/2018 - 14:49

          @jackwoz: I have used them for more than 2 years in a shop environment and don't know how much life left for all those sensors…..

        • MightyAtom on 16/08/2018 - 15:03

          I've had some of mine for up to 3 years haven't had to change the batteries yet on door/window sensors, motion sensors or buttons. I have had to change batteries in temp/humidity sensors, they seem to last about 18 months.

  • tryingtohelp on 16/08/2018 - 14:00

    I got this working with apple homekit and set rules. Works like a charm. Willing to add more accessories from Xiaomi but barely see them on sale. This one is the cheapest i have ever saw.

    • t3chshopper on 16/08/2018 - 14:31

      It used to be really common. I bought a tonne of door and motion sensors, as well as buttons. Gearbest and Banggood seemed to have really pulled back on those coupons lately.

  • [Deactivated] on 16/08/2018 - 14:16

    I bought this last time, very useful & a great product. I need a extra Power socket now.

  • DaddysBelt on 16/08/2018 - 14:22

    Great price

  • Frozensage on 16/08/2018 - 14:30

    I can't get my to talk to any servers other than the mainland one. Be great if it can talk to the Nas I got downstairs.

    • t3chshopper on 16/08/2018 - 14:33

      It talks to Home Assistant. If your NAS can run docker, then load Home Assistant (or throw Hass.io on a Raspberry Pi 3) and you'll be all set.

  • Jenus on 16/08/2018 - 14:30

    Does this allow notifications on multiple phones?

    The reason I ask is because I have a Mi Home camera with motion detection turned on and it can only notify one mobile phone at a time (depending on which is turned on etc).

    • tighytighty on 16/08/2018 - 14:36

      Well for the last 6 months my cameras nor the door sensors send any notifications to the mobile which is quite annoying. Any ideas guys?

      I am afraid to reinstall the app just in case one of my cameras which is the DAFANG will stop working.

      Any thoughts?

      • PlasticSpaceman on 16/08/2018 - 16:29

        Apparently it is a known issue (either it doesn't work at all, or works for a while then stops, etc) - saw a few people with the same issue when I tried to get it to work myself. I solved it by using Home Assistant instead. Now I get alerts via a dedicated twitter feed.

    • tryingtohelp on 16/08/2018 - 14:38

      If you bridge it to Apple Homekit, then it can be shared with quite a good number of icloud accounts and they can set the notifications in their phone as per the requirement.

      Got my kitchen yee-lights (Xiaomi) voice activated with my Alexa and this kit.
      ;)

      • batrarobin on 16/08/2018 - 15:10

        That sounds great. I also have this kit, do you know if it's possible to operate yeelights through voice commands from a Google Pixel 2 phone?

        • walaj on 16/08/2018 - 16:31

          if you just have yeelights, then use the yeelight app, and you can then add that to google home (but you still need a google home I guess)

        • batrarobin on 16/08/2018 - 16:36

          @walaj: I have the gateway as well (However no Google Home…yet)

    Can you use the window or door sensor to monitor the garage door?

    I get paranoid that our garage door may open automatically and I won't realise. E.g. pressed the button accidentally in my pocket.

    • tryingtohelp on 16/08/2018 - 15:11

      Yes you can

    • PopCounty on 16/08/2018 - 15:45

      Got this for exact same reason. Other features are bonus for this price.

  • jiancoek on 16/08/2018 - 15:15

    Is this International version or have to use China server ?

    • pinkybrain on 16/08/2018 - 15:28

      If it doesn't say international then you need to use chinese server.

      Also review indicates this.

  • bylife on 16/08/2018 - 15:49

    I bought this set last month, plug with three pins standard.
    I have an issue to connect to my home router(Asus), so I could not feel this product function at all. The netserver device can connect to the mobile with connection successful notice, but cannot link to the home wifi. Tried iphone and android phone both no working.

    • Jason-Vic on 16/08/2018 - 16:11

      From searching the internet and a lot of frustration with the kit; it seems to have issues at times with 5Ghz WiFi Networks. If your router supports it (or adjusting your current network depending on needs), try to create a (separate) WiFi network with just 2.4Ghz enabled. This is of-course dependent on settings/googling steps relevant to your model.

  • webtherapist on 16/08/2018 - 15:56

    • PlasticSpaceman on 28/08/2018 - 10:41

      Nope - I got a message the day after I ordered it that it had been shipped (from Sweden of all places!)…… I ordered it not long after the link was listed so maybe I was lucky. Then again, shipping from Sweden seems weird and it hasn't turned up yet so who knows!

      • kongkee on 28/08/2018 - 17:41

        Lucky you. They say I'd have to pay another 55 dollars just for shipping. I asked how is it so expensive, but the support can't explain himself, he just sends the same thing he told me the first time. He can't clarify. Anyway, thanks for replying!

        • PlasticSpaceman on 28/08/2018 - 18:22

          Ouch! Well, I haven't got mine yet so will see. I guess at least you can get your money back…..

        • kongkee on 29/08/2018 - 09:28

        • kongkee on 07/09/2018 - 11:17

          @PlasticSpaceman: Thanks for that. They cancelled mine even tho I told them some people ordered on the same deal didn't have to pay 55 USD for shipping. Told me if I can get their order number, I told them that was private and won't do that. So decided to just refund. I got the refund which was good, but really wish I had this item. Anyway, have fun with the purchase!

  • Dream-cast on 03/09/2018 - 15:21

    Anyone recieved theirs yet? Shipping its taking ages. Postnord sweden tracking shows it was dropped off for shipping on the 20/08/18. Second update shows it's left the country of the sender on the 30/08/18. Not sure if the origin is Sweden or China.

    • thatfreak on 05/09/2018 - 12:00

      Experiecing the same. Postnord sweden shows order departed on flight from origin 23 Aug. 30 Aug shows order departed from sorting hub?!

      • Thatbargainhunter on 06/09/2018 - 08:52

        And the same for me.

        Lightinthebox sucks. It's like how gearbest used to be, before they picked up there game.

        They need a cheap fairly fast shipping option like gearbest, geekbuying and Banggood.

        • PlasticSpaceman on 07/09/2018 - 07:47

          I've ordered a few things from them, but this is the first time there has been a delay. Got an email from them saying they had noticed the package hadn't been delivered yet and to contact them if it hadn't arrived after a few more days….. The tracking number is 'not trackable' according to AusPost. Sigh….

        • Thatbargainhunter on 07/09/2018 - 08:44

          yeah same email.

    • PlasticSpaceman on 07/09/2018 - 09:44

      • Dream-cast on 07/09/2018 - 10:51

        Mine also arrived today.

      • pomchu on 07/09/2018 - 13:09

        mine did too.

  • pomchu on 07/09/2018 - 13:29

    Not so sure about it coming from Sweden though. I think it is just the post service they used. The packaging is the usual white plastic, the writing next to Australia is in Chinese and there is a CN22 code which is likely to be Chinese too. Plus I have received parcels in the past from Bgood, DD4 and so on where Dutch, Deutsche post etc have been used. The return address to Malmo is part of Swedish Post I'm guessing.

  • Thatbargainhunter on 07/09/2018 - 13:39

    Apparently mine scanned through Melbourne yesterday - I am in Brisbane. Should be early next week.
