Created a MMWave/PIR presence sensor with temp and humidity and luminance

Yeah, I forgot to post a follow up to my earlier post

I bought it for € 14 (€ 8 electronics & € 6 housing), you have to add € 7 - € 20 for a 5V USB power supply & 3mtr USB-C cable. I bought 5V1A PSUs

Here’s some details:

HA device + device settings:

Homey:

It’s just a motion sensor, which keeps ‘in alarm’ as long as the sensor detects presence. It can be excluded from zone activity. This is a device from the HA community app.
I did not find a way yet, to get adjustable MaxDistance and SensitivityThreshold entities to Homey

It’s pretty small:

This is my kitchen ‘scanner’. Hidden from view inside a (fake) flower pot on top of the fridge :wink:

The temp/humid sensor had to be outside the housing (or drilling multiple holes in the housing will do).

There’s also a webpage (from the ESP8266 unit) for monitoring the detection to finetune things
