I've just added a Sonoff snzb-03 to my HE. The first thing I've noticed is that the detection angle is much smaller than that of my Aqara sensors, 110 Vs 170 degrees. For those with the Sonoff's, I was wondering what you found the best positioning to be, eg ceiling downwards, wall mounted high or low etc.
I have both Aqara and Sonoff too and while it might technically be less, its detection distance range is much longer (around 20 feet) versus Aqara (around 13 feet). I have my SNZB-03 up high (7.5 feet) pointing toward my back door and that covers nearly my entire living room/dining room (I live in a small house 
).

Yes. I use ceiling mount in a closet and a hallway where I don't care about pet triggers. In the hallway outside the bedrooms and in the kitchen, I position them high on the wall.
I don't know what you hope to detect or ignore, so not sure if I can offer much more guidance.

Has anyone found an ingenious way to mount these motion sensors in a corner
Have it printed, adapting the size, or make it out of wood.

yeah I was thinking wood.
I was hoping there would be something to buy, like this but cheaper/smaller!
I'm actually using that Aqara motion sensor mount at the moment but I only have one of them, I didn't realise you could buy them separately. Thanks!
