Zigbee MINI Motion Detector – ZHA, Zigbee2MQTT & eWeLink support

The Zigbee MINI Motion Detector 808YZ is an ultra-compact PIR sensor with or without a stand, ideal for discreet mounting with the included adhesive pad; it offers a wide 120° detection angle for reliable motion triggers in small spaces such as hallways, closets and toilets. In ZHA, this model reports occupancy and battery status (not lux) with a short detection pulse of approximately 1 second, allowing light scenes to react quickly; in automations, add a custom stay-on time to prevent lights from switching off immediately. The sensor also works with eWeLink via a Zigbee hub (e.g. SONOFF ecosystem) and with Zigbee2MQTT for open-source integrations; available settings may vary by hub/firmware.

Key features and benefits:

• Super compact and lightweight: can be installed discreetly; available with or without a stand.
• 120° detection angle with fast 1s detection pulse, ideal for smooth lighting and notification automation.
• Integrations: ZHA (Home Assistant), eWeLink via Zigbee hub (SONOFF), and Zigbee2MQTT (open source).
• Easy installation: stick or screw; suitable for indoor use.

Compatibility:

• ZHA (Home Assistant): occupancy + battery; no lux or advanced parameters in the default profile.
• eWeLink: Works through a Zigbee hub (e.g. SONOFF Zigbee Bridge/iHost/NSPanel Pro); features may vary by hub/firmware.
• Zigbee2MQTT: Supported for pairing in open-source setups; features may vary by firmware.

Disadvantage:

• No lux in ZHA; the short 1s detection pulse requires a software-defined "hold time" in automations.

Automation tip:

In automations, use a custom off timer (e.g. 30–120 s) that resets with each new detection, so that lights stay on as long as there is motion.
