Hi guys, I was wondering if I could use the KS200 Smart Switch with a motion sensor only for motion detection.

 

Why the KS200?

At 25CAD, it seems to be an affordable motion sensor and I'm okay with giving up a switch or outlet to do what I need. Finding a Google Home compliant motion sensor is proving to be difficult or expensive and then there's the question of installing a sensor, powering it and also making it fit in with the rest of the room without having a box stuck/mounted awkwardly on a wall somewhere.

 

Basically I want to install a KS200 on a switch centrally located in my apartment to a light I do not use. I would like the KS200 to activate other smart lights in my apartment, but not the switch to the lamp itself. Also will this work with Google Home?

 

Basically:
1. KS200 replaces a room light switch- detects motion AND ambient light detects low-light.

2. KS200 runs Google routine "Turn On All Lights".

 

I need it to be Google as I have only one basic lamp on a HS103s. Every other lamp has Amazon sourced Smart Bulbs that work on Smart Life with dimming/colors. So basically I need the KS200 to turn on 4x Smart Life bulbs and 1x HS103.

 

-------------

 

Next, I'd like to replace a GFCI Outlet in my kitchen with a KS200 and a standard switch with a HS200 for similar reasons (the kitchen switch is outside the kitchen angry):

1. HS200 replaces my kitchen light switch.

2. KS200 replaces a GFCI outlet inside my kitchen- detects motion.

3. KS200 turns HS200 aka Kitchen Light on.

 

-------------

 

I've never done anything beyond basic Google routines, so please tell me if I'm being too ambitious and if none of this is possible at all.

 

Thanks

I guess you want to consult the model KS200M? Unfortunately, the motion sensor on this smart switch cannot be used as an independent device. The sensor function integrates with switch features.
