On Z-wave I find the best fit with batteries, Fibaro FGMS-001. Fast, never misses a bit after the [Homey antenna mod](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-antenna-mod/2928/26) .  
Expensive on batteries but I get some good ones from a local shop and depends of the location of the sensor and how accurate I want the Lux reports, some go over one year on before require to be replaced.

Second on batteries that reports lux reliable is Aeotec Multisensor 6. However, this one I personally find it the BEST if continuously powered by USB. Else, it used 2x batteries than Fibaro and boy, it eats them for breakfast.

I have some Aqara, too. Cheap sensors, battery last a lot haven’t changed mines for over a year now. But if you want lux reporting, then you need to trigger them for motion.

Sure other members here have their own opinions, too.
