I have seen that also that is shows as an unknown device in the dev page. I solve this to start adding another sensor and the when you get to the point you want to pair close the window and refresh the dev page and it should be fine then ---

I always reboot Homey after adding another Aqara device otherwise you see unknown device. I seems that de Zigbee information only updates after a reboot… ---

Is 1.5.13 rc 14 stable enough to give it a try? I’am looking forward to see the battery status form my Aqara devices. ---

Read my comment… One post above yours. I am on the latest firmware. All seems stable, but I don’t see battery status (yet). ---

@TedTolboom is busy updating the app as we speak. Don’t know when it will be released or if re-adding is necessary. ---

Don’t know when it will be released or if re-adding is necessary. 🤣 you guys are killing me… So yes, in Homey’s Zigbee core a minor issue has been fixed resulting in that a custom Xiaomi (lifeline) report is provided (to the app) correctly parsed. This will enable, among others the battery reporting. Although the battery reporting is prepared for in most of the device driver code / capabilities, it still needs to be enabled and individually verified for all devices. So no, updating to RC14 will not give you the additional features by itself; it will require the next Xiaomi / Aqara Zigbee app update in _combination with_ RC14. _Don’t install RC14 only for this reason_. It will take me some time to verify the code updates for all devices. Adding this line to the RC14 changelog did spoil my december 5th present 😉 ---

This is an amazing idea. Can’t believe I didn’t think of that! I’m also thinking to stick it under the guestroom bed to somehow detect that we have guests for various things Another thought - if you’re using your Homey for home security, have one stuck to your homey that starts the alarm if it’s touched (in case someone trying to unplug it before that can happen) ---
