Hue sensor connect via Hue Bridge or direct to HE

@SmartHomePrimer Im curious about your Xiaomi Aqara motion sensor. Would you mind answering some questions?

  • Is that paired direct to HE? Or do you need their hub as a go between?
  • Do you have it in connected direct to homekit or would it be via HomeBridge?
  • Is the ZigBee mesh not good enough to not need a repeater? What repeater do you have
  • How long do the batteries last for you generally?
  • Are you using the drivers from [Release] Xiaomi / Aqara device drivers
  • Does the light sensor need movement to track changes in light levels?

Is this the sensor that you have - 100% Xiaomi Aqara Human Body Sensor ZigBee Movement Motion Security Wireless Connection Light Intensity Gateway 2 Mi home APP s-in Smart Remote Control from Consumer Electronics on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group

Sorry for the barrage of questions - Im always curious about new kit
