Smart Home Automations Will Never Be The Same (Aqara FP2 Presence Sensor)
The new Aqara FP2 Presence Sensor is an absolute game changer for your smart home automations. The FP2 is a mm wave presence sensor that can detect even the smallest movements. No more false triggers! Plus it features zone configurations, fall detection, a light sensor and so much more.
**UPDATE**
The Aqara FP2 sensor already sold out on Amazon stores. It is expected to be back in stock in early May. Once it’s available to purchase, I will update this description with a new discount code (check back and follow me on my other social channels for updates!)
Thanks to Aqara for sponsoring this video.

Make Your Existing Blinds Smart!
Finished installing the SwitchBot Blind Tilt. I got mine into HomeKit using Homebridge. You do need the SwitchBot Hub mini to use these in Homebridge.
There is a lot to like about this little device including an included solar panel, a light sensor, the fact that I don’t have to mount anything to the wall, and I can still use the tilt want and raise the blinds manually if I want.
