YOLINK LoRa Smart Door & Window Sensor: Up to 1/4 Mile Open-Air Range, Door Left-Open Reminders, up to 5 Year Battery Life, Alexa, IFTTT, Home Assistant

Convenient and useful, works great.

Easy to install. I made my own bracket Connects easily and is reliable

Best contact open/closed sensor on the market. New strong signal to hub, utilizes two alkaline AAA battery batteries, runtime of batteries is 2 years,. I have six in service and have not had a dropped signal from any sensor. Also can utilize multiple programming possibilities and notifications.

So I got into the YoLink LORA to get notifications from a mailbox about 200-250ft from my front door. Its a direct line of sight from there, but I started with putting the hub in the basement at the equipment rack. I figured if it didnt work there I could move it closer to the front of the house. I had no issues with range. The sensor will reliably work through a handful of walls, across the open field, and even from within the all metal mailbox. I have no doubt that without walls and a clear line of sight, 500ft would be simple. I actually think that the 1/4mile (1,320ft) advertised range might not just be marketing fluff. So far Im very pleased with YoLink. The app is easy to use, setup is dead simple, and the range is unparalleled.

This is an excellent product, but it is a bit hard to configure. For example, my freezer is in the garage and I sure don’t want to be told every time I open the freezer door, but I do want to be told if the door is left open for more than five minutes. Configuring the 5 minute alert was quite the chore and yet I’m certain that’s quite a common request? so they could’ve given a real example. Also, once you register your email address with the app, you are forced to register a second time on their website. That second registration is really not obvious. Nonetheless, I have bought additional sensors from them

Easy to install and reasonably priced.

So far so good. Linked with google assistant and hue. Working well.

Great Product!!! You can used on door, windows. Super easy to setup(just scan the code bar). The integration with the HUB its a piece a cake(be sure to buy the hub separately or a combo). You can also buy a siren alarm from this same company if you want any noise for any who tries to enter your place.

I bought he leak sensors and a window/door sensor. The hub and sensors were very easy to install. I plugged the hub into my wifi router and it activated within a minute, I paired the leak sensors and tested them, they alarmed as soon as I put them in water. The door sensor on my garage doors gives me peace of mind when I am not home, it sends an alert to my phone every time the door open and when it closes.

I was cautious to order because there were not many reviews, but I am SO glad that I did. I cannot recommend the yolink products highly enough. They are incredibly easy to setup, and work flawlessly. Setup: The only issue I had during setup was the wifi did not want to connect. I connected the hub via ethernet to the router and it connected without issue. Once it was connected, I simply disconnected from the ethernet and moved it to the location I wanted the hub and it stayed connected to the wifi. Range: They arent kidding about the range on these products! Our chicken coop is over 400ft from our house, across hills/trees/brush and I have had zero issues with connection. Customer Service: I emailed customer service with a question and received an answer within the same day. Very quick, polite, and helpful. IFTTT Integration is very easy to use and works well, though I have found that I prefer the in-app automation since it there is no delay. I am using the yolink wifi plug to turn on/off a heat lamp for new chicks in the brooder based on an alert from the yolink temp/humidity sensor. If the temp gets too high, the plug turns the lamp off - if the temp gets too low, the plug turns the lamp on. Its working very well. I have had zero issues with the app and have found that it has all the functionality that I need.
