Damn, there's a typo in manufacturer specific xml (my mistake). I'm gonna provide an update to ozw, but it's gonna take time.

If you want to test drive, please edit your manufacturer specific xml and replace the 0 to 1 in the following line (the id should be 1083):

Code: Select all

<Product type="0003" id="0083" name="Battery Powered PIR Sensor" config="shenzen_neo/nas-pd01z.xml"/>

To bad the NEO stuff is now about the same price as the original Fibaro.
I got one plug for $25.00 but now the prices skyrocketed to $55.00 and if you put some effort in finding cheaper the cheapest is $37.50.

But it was clear (and they even noted on Ali), that the cheap price is just a promotion.

Could be, i just found out about them when it was too late and prices went up again.
I did get one cheap, but wanted to know the quality first before ordering more, and by then it was to late.

FYI, de door sensor was just 28 EUR today - still, it's way cheaper than any other door sensors.

Was? Or still is?
If it still is, do you have a link?

Still and it's a mobile only deal on Aliexpress (you can get it from their app). Also, it's on the official Neo Coolcam Store, think it's easy to find it. Pro top: put the items to wish list, then you can easily check the price drop, as the Ali app will notify you :)

I got no money back on the version with the T instead of the Z, I can not even trade them in. Useless paperweights.
Another 50+ euro out of the window. I got various other products disputes with ali, and their buyers protections means seller protection. (not delivered, wrong items). I never see any of the money back. Never got this problem with ebay.

Just installed the Aliexpress App and searched for "NEO Door Sensor"
Found one, but that is useless, it's part number NAS-DS01T, the T makes it useless, it needs to end with a Z for it to be the z-wave version.

EDIT, searching for "NAS-DS01Z" did show the correct one.

That's not true, I've had several disputes (mostly item not arrived) and always got my money back.

Then you where more lucky then me :cry:

The last items i did not receive, where send back to china due to failure of delivery, the seller already knew 3 weeks, he got it's items back,... do you know what I got back after complaning for a while?

The items that where 1 and 2 euros... alas not the expensive ones... same package :? I stick to really cheap stuff 5 euro or less... since the extra cost rate is now more then 33%....

Personal experiences differ... lucky you

Thx for the link, ordered one.
It's cheaper then the Fibaro offer on Amazon.de (€44,99), i hope the quality is the same (or better)

The build quality is cheaper (more plastic), there's no luminating led ring, and a you can't get that many parametering options (IMHO Fibaro has so many), but otherwise it's the same. So if you want to monitor the power consuption/switch on/off the device you won't regret the order.

Can it measure the temperature as well? (Like the Fibaro motion sensor can)
