Smart Home Sensors

Smart sensors detect environmental changes like motion, door activity, temperature, humidity, or even water leaks, then send alerts to your phone or trigger automated responses. Sensors are an efficient way to monitor and automate your home giving you added peace of mind and convenience.

Smart thermostats with room sensors detect temperature and humidity in specific areas, allowing for custom automations and adjustments. If the temperature is too high, you can activate your Tapo plug to turn on the fan, or space heater if temps are too low. If too dry, automate your humidifier to ensure balanced levels for comfort.

Smart water sensors detect leaks and flooding in real time, sending instant alerts to your phone or activating an audible alarm on your Tapo hub, so you can act quickly. Ideal for busy families or small business owners, placing them near water heaters, washing machines, or basement areas helps prevent costly water damage and gives you peace of mind when you're away from home.

Smart door sensors monitor when doors or windows open and close, alerting you instantly to unexpected activity. Perfect for monitoring entry points while you're at work or sleeping, they pair seamlessly with video doorbells and security cameras to create comprehensive protection for your family and property.

While most Tapo smart home products do not require a hub, Tapo sensors do require a hub to operate. Tapo sensors operate on a sub-G frequency, allowing for maximum distance in placement and significantly increased battery life.  Tapo hubs also double as chimes to provide alerts when sensors are triggered.

Yes, Tapo smart sensors integrate seamlessly with Alexa and Google Assistant. Your Echo or Google Home device can act as added alert systems when sensors are triggered.

Tapo smart sensors deliver up to 2 years of battery life based on TP-Link laboratory tests, making them ideal for low-maintenance monitoring. Ideal for busy households that require reliable protection without the need for frequent battery changes. Actual performance may vary depending on usage and environmental factors.

Tapo offers smart sensors suitable for sheltered outdoor areas, such as covered porches or garages. While models like the Tapo T100 motion sensor aren't waterproof for fully exposed environments, they work great under covered spaces for monitoring deliveries or detecting activity around entry points. For comprehensive outdoor protection, Tapo's weatherproof security cameras provide motion detection and person tracking that withstands the elements year-round.
