Hopefully no more battery draining issues with MYGGBETT. The parasoll has only lasted about 2 weeks on average. Today I thought the battery died but noticed the red light was on. I repaired it and was able to get it working on the same battery. ---

Ordered a few of the new ikea matter devices online yesterday. Couldn’t get every new matter device. Only missed out on the buttons, water leak sensor and the scroll wheel control. Hopefully there’s another forum post on the new ikea matter devices. I wonder if anyone has had any issues or not. ---

I’ve also bought some of the Ikea devices for testing. - 1 KAJPLATS (E27 bulb) - 1 MYGGSRPAY (motion sensor) - 2 MYGBETT (door/window sensor) - 2 TIMMERFLOTTE (temp. / humidity sensor) - 1 ALPSTUGA (air quality sensor) - 1 BILRESA (button with scroll wheel) Overall I have a mixed experience, which might also result from a not so big Thread mesh network. I have “only” four Thread router devices added to Homey for a, what I would rate, a normal sized German house. My basic test setup: Homey Pro on the ground floor. Ikea devices on the first floor across the house. On the ground floor there are three Thread router devices distributed and working fine. As with a lot of houses there is a reinforced concrete ceiling in between the ground and the first floor. KAJPLATS - not able to connect on the first floor, but working fine on the ground floor. What I find quite interesting and I would have thought a powered device has stronger RF capabilities. MYGGSPRAY - not able to connect on the first floor, but working fine when closer to a Thread router. Reliable and fast. MYGBETT - not able to connect on the first floor, needs to be closer to a Thread router device. Battery lifetime: Pffff… mixed experiences. One sensor which is partially covered (hidden in the window frame) gave up after approx. two weeks. The other, in the open, but not as close to a Thread router is still working. Now and then it triggers wihout the window beeing opened. Maybe due to a poor connectivity to the Thread network? Don’t know. I now want to put the other sensor closer to the router and not covered to see if I experience the same false trigger alarms. I have four Aqara Matter over Thread door sensors that work much more reliable with better connectivity even on the first floor, partially covered. TIMMERFLOTTE - able to connect on the first floor. Working fine and reliable for now. I like the design and the fact that the temperature / humidity is displayed when the button was pressed. ALPSTUGA - not connecting to the Thread network on the first floor, needs to be closer to a Thread router. BILRESA - not connecting to the Thread network on the first floor, needs to be closer to a Thread router. The design of the scroll wheel is questionable. Trying to turn it can be sometimes difficult. My plan is to buy one GRILLPLATS per room to build a stable Thread mesh network once they are released. Reading through forum posts It seems that the Thread network implementation from Homey is not the best (as with Zigbee). The Ikea devices are great for the price tag, but with Homey it seems a pretty dense Thread mesh network is needed. Looking forward to the experiences from other users here. ---

> [@Jumpingtrees](#): > > What I find quite interesting and I would have thought a powered device has stronger RF capabilities. That wouldn’t help, in fact when _some_ devices have different signal range it would cause unexpected and undesired effects. Let’s say we have - device A with increased transmission power and - device B with default TP on 30m distance Device A can reach device B easily: for device B to send a confirmation signal, or to send an event, or to relay an other device’s message as hop, it never can reach the device A. The system won’t work as expected. ---

```auto After a slightly painful start with myggbett in homey they lost connection, repair connection and they ran again, a few days later everything looked right in homey but when the windows were opened nothing happened they still looked as if they were closed... one more time repair then they ran again.... they have now run for a week now whit out problems, have tested the windows several times during the week and so far they run perfectly. To early to say anything about can't battery drain. ``` ---

Have now added 4 Myggbett sensors (a fifth one didn’t want to ‘thread’) to Homey. They work fine, but if you change the battery of these sensors, they need to be repaired, otherwise they keep the contact alarm continue at active. ---

It is mentioned here as being supported: [IKEA Home Smart | Homey](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/com.ikea.tradfri/IKEA-Home-Smart/test/) You need to switch the device to Zigbee mode. ---

No, that’s why I wrote that the device needs to be switched to Zigbee mode. ---

Okay, thank you for the explanation. I’ve checked the [IKEA Home Smart app page](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/com.ikea.tradfri/IKEA-Home-Smart/test/), but I can’t find any information on how to put the sensor into Zigbee mode. Do you happen to know how to do this or where I can find a manual for it? ---

Hi everyone, The new IKEA **MYGGBETT** door/window sensor is officially marketed as a **Matter-over-Thread** device. However, I’ve been researching online and found several reports suggesting that newer IKEA Matter products (like the _Kajplats_ bulbs and _Bilresa_ button) might have “hidden” Zigbee compatibility. Since IKEA often uses similar chipsets across their range, there is a theory that the MYGGBETT might still have a Zigbee stack that can be manually triggered. I’ve compiled a few methods found across the web and would love for people with a Zigbee sniffer (Z2M/ZHA) to test these out. **Methods to test for Zigbee pairing:** 1. **The “4-Click” Standard Reset:** 2. **The “12-Click” Hard Reset (Successful on Kajplats bulbs):** 3. **The “Long Hold + Multi-tap” Sequence:** 4. **Battery Induction Reset:** **Why test this?** If we can confirm a Zigbee fallback, this sensor becomes much more versatile for those without a Thread Border Router. However, there is a possibility that IKEA stripped Zigbee entirely from battery-powered sensors (like MYGGBETT and the _Badring_ water leak sensor) to save power. **Please let me know if you manage to get a “Join Request” in your Zigbee logs!** Any feedback or logs from ZHA/Zigbee2MQTT would be greatly appreciated. * * * ---

> [@robertklep](#): > > It is mentioned here as being supported I just saw it’s only mentioned as being supported using Matter, even though the page says that the app is for _all_ Homey Pro’s. So there’s a good chance that these don’t support Zigbee anyway… 🙄 ---

That’s a shame. Perhaps people on this forum can try it, or others who have a MYGGBETT door sensor. Hopefully, we’ll get a response from them. ---

I"ve read the Matter enabled Ikea devices only have zigbee built-in to keep backwards compatibility. Like, controlling Ikea smart stuff directly with “classic” Ikea zigbee remotes by zigbee “binding” or “grouping” (without need for any controller). ---

Good afternoon @Peter_Kawa, just to clarify: is it possible to control them with Homey then? Or are you saying that it isn’t possible that way? Sorry for the confusion. [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/ikea-myggbett-door-windows-sensor/149461.md?page=2)
