YOLINK LoRa Smart Door & Window Sensor: Up to 1/4 Mile Open-Air Range, Door Left-Open Reminders, up to 5 Year Battery Life, Alexa, IFTTT, Home Assistant

Deceits in its product description. This listed in products that support TuYa/ Smart Life app. Now it says I have to use their hub and app. I cannot use 10 different apps for 10 different sensors - I’m using Smart Life and it’s sensor ecosystem is pretty good. Why do I need loyalty to this new kind?! I don’t.

So I got into the YoLink LORA to get notifications from a mailbox about 200-250ft from my front door. Its a direct line of sight from there, but I started with putting the hub in the basement at the equipment rack. I figured if it didnt work there I could move it closer to the front of the house. I had no issues with range. The sensor will reliably work through a handful of walls, across the open field, and even from within the all metal mailbox. I have no doubt that without walls and a clear line of sight, 500ft would be simple. I actually think that the 1/4mile (1,320ft) advertised range might not just be marketing fluff. So far Im very pleased with YoLink. The app is easy to use, setup is dead simple, and the range is unparalleled.

Great Product!!! You can used on door, windows. Super easy to setup(just scan the code bar). The integration with the HUB its a piece a cake(be sure to buy the hub separately or a combo). You can also buy a siren alarm from this same company if you want any noise for any who tries to enter your place.

Long battery life, Ive had it for two months +

Very easy to install. The kids never close doors. Now, I get a text if the door is left open too long!

Product itself is great but not getting timely push notifications when door is opened or closed. Only received them when clicking on the application itself. Have sent an email to the company requesting assistance but so far no response. I also have the SmartThings Hub and inotifications are instant and problem-free. I just received an email from the company and they said that there is a bug in the app and theyll be releasing a new one within 7 days Ill keep you posted as to the progress and update my rating as necessary App released this morning and now push notifications coming in just fine. They need to work on their English translations for the alert, but thats a minor issue. I hope this company succeeds they have awesome products!

So far so good. Linked with google assistant and hue. Working well.

Easy to install and reasonably priced.

Best contact open/closed sensor on the market. New strong signal to hub, utilizes two alkaline AAA battery batteries, runtime of batteries is 2 years,. I have six in service and have not had a dropped signal from any sensor. Also can utilize multiple programming possibilities and notifications.

This is an excellent product, but it is a bit hard to configure. For example, my freezer is in the garage and I sure don’t want to be told every time I open the freezer door, but I do want to be told if the door is left open for more than five minutes. Configuring the 5 minute alert was quite the chore and yet I’m certain that’s quite a common request? so they could’ve given a real example. Also, once you register your email address with the app, you are forced to register a second time on their website. That second registration is really not obvious. Nonetheless, I have bought additional sensors from them
