Aqara FP300 - Will this work in Home Assistant ?
In this video I test the Aqara FP300 presence sensor in Home Assistant and compare all integration methods:
ZHA, Zigbee2MQTT, and HomeKit.
I show you what really works, what fails, and which integration gives you the most features.
• Aqara FP300 - Will this work in Home Assis...
I tested:
Zigbee mode via Aqara Home
Home Assistant with HomeKit integration
Direct pairing with Zigbee2MQTT
ZHA integration issues missing detection entity
Distance, sensitivity, and AI learning behavior
#homeassistant #aqara #homeautomation
If you’re planning to buy the Aqara FP300 and use it in Home Assistant, this video will save you time and frustration.
From my testing:
Zigbee2MQTT gives the most control and exposes all features.
ZHA is missing important entities.
Thread / Matter behaves the same as HomeKit with only basic sensors.
