Zooz Z-Wave Plus 700 Series XS Tilt | Shock Sensor ZSE43 User Manual (PDF)
I attached this to my garage car door. This has been working great to monitor when the garage door is open or closed.
I had issues similar to others - paired fine, in the house near controller, but on garage door it dropped signal. Finally realized it was not the z wave network signal, but instead the proximity to the metal of the garage door. Simple fix: grab a plastic takeout container (4 inches tall worked), screw the lid into garage door, connect base to lid, and attach sensor to base. This small standoff made the sensor quite reliable and fixed connection issues.
I have a simple "dumb" garage door opener and sometimes I forget if I closed my garage door for the night or not. I can, of course, point a camera to the door and check it this way, but this inexpensive sensor helps making it a little less cumbersome.
It takes some experimenting to find a good position on a door for it to show "open" even if the door is just a few inches up, but once properly set up and mounted, it works flawlessly.
I deducted one star because it looks like the vibration sensing capability (at least in my sensor) is pretty spotty - I had it randomly showing vibrations even with door closed, no wind outside and no sources of possible external vibration. However this does not impact my use case at all as I only needed tilt sensing, thus I am pretty happy overall.
I had two of these that had intermittent signal problems in an area flooded with signal. My discussion with Zooz support (lifetime support!) felt very much like them trying to prove that my configuration was wrong or that I didn't know what I was doing. After about 10 email exchanges I gave up - no amount of evidence was going to persuade them these are just not very good. Ecolink's seems fine.
We're sorry to hear about the issues you experienced! The environment where a battery powered Z-Wave device is installed can influence the signal strength (locations where there are a lot of metal or glass elements, thick walls, etc.). We are glad to hear that another brand works well for your set-up.
I purchased a number of new Zooz 700 series sensors to replace old CR123 powered devices from another manufacturer. I love their compact size and the z-wave button makes pairing and waking up the sensor very easy.
At the suggestion of another user, I did update the firmware before including in my network. This tilt sensor is very quick to respond and works perfectly with my openHAB 3.4.0.M6.
