A SMART START! Everything you need to start your smart home security system: one YoLink Vibration Sensor (shock, glass break, tamper, movement detector) with one YoLink Hub. Supports 300+ devices from our full product line. Add more hubs for large homes, high-rise condo buildings, etc. Two replaceble AAA batteries are included!
WHY PAY A MONTHLY FEE, when you can protect it for free? Self-monitor and save when you take advantage of our many ways to be notified of alarms and off-normal events in and around your home or business. See the “Know Now!” section below for more info!
DETECT & MONITOR: Attach to equipment like a generator, pump, or washing machine, to monitor and be notified of activity. Attach to windows to detect glass breaking. Please in or on objects like storage boxes or drawers to detect theft or attempted access to your possessions.
DEVICE-TO-DEVICE PAIRING allows for two or more devices, like your Vibration Sensor and a Siren Alarm, to be paired together, so they will operate when needed, without WiFi, internet, even without AC power (battery-powered or backed-up devices)!
LONGEST RANGE, BY FAR! YoLink devices use a new wireless technology called LoRa. Boasting an open-air range of up to 1/4 mile, and superior obstruction penetration, you can put sensors in places, like basements, outbuildings, several floors away, not possible with WiFi or older wireless systems.
REQUIREMENTS: Android or Apple smartphone, wired ethernet port or stable WiFi connection (2.4 GHz band, only).

Simply Amazing!
I have experience with multiple IOT platforms, including YoLink, Aqara, Lutron, VOCOLink, etc… and countless sensors for each, but until now I never had or tested a vibration sensor.My use case is around the need to monitor a pool pump and ensure it comes on-line each day. As the pump is variable speed and internally computer controlled it has to be connected to power all the time so a high-power contactor is not going to work. I thought about installing a CT probe in the power panel to monitor power usage and while that would have worked there are issues with WiFi reaching inside the metal box as well as the lack of software logic to alert proactively when there is no power usage.Anyway, I tried to simplify solving the problem by just installing a vibration sensor on the pool pump, to be able to tell and be notified when the pump comes and goes off. To hedge my bets I ordered both a YoLInk and Aqara Vibration Sensors and attached both to the pump in the same location for testing.The YoLink sensor is about 3 times larger than the Aqara one but has the advantage of using 2 x AAA batteries that are easily replaceable and since they provide more power the YoLink sensor will last longer. The YoLink sensor also has a much more customized device configuration in the YoLink app with great options that allow me to setup an alert if the pump (vibration) does not occur in the AM when the pump starts! Lastly, the YoLink sensor proved to provide 10 levels of vibration sensitivity straight in their App, whereas the Aqara sensor only provides 3 levels and for changing each one you have to also press the button on the sensor. Not very practical on Aqara! Lastly, the YoLink sensor uses LoRa long range technology and has a much better connection all the way to my pool pump.I must say I am thrilled with the performance and features of the YoLink Vibration Sensor and it has solved a very frustrating problem for me which is why I wanted to recommend it.

Fantastic Vibration Sensor & Very Easy to Setup/Install (using on my furnace/HVAC)
I was struggling to come up with a way to automatically turn on/off a sanitizing UVC light I installed on my HVAC ducting. I had installed the “REKO Lighting R2000 Air Purifier Whole House Uv uvc Light” (purchased on Amazon) but the unit itself has no switch. The way the unit comes, once it’s plugged in, it’s always on, which shortens the life of the bulbs and wastes electricity. The light itself isn’t serving any purpose if it’s on while the furnace/AC is not running (since no air circulation means no air is being sanitized). I had looked high and low for a smart vibration sensor that works with Alexa but didn’t find much. I finally came across this YoLink unit and purchased it right away. I’ve been super impressed with Yolink’s products, and this vibration sensor certainly didn’t disappoint. If you already have a YoLink hub, adding this unit takes about a minute, and can then run off the YoLink App or Alexa (including routine trigger). If you don’t have their hub, you’ll need another 5 minutes or so to set one up. Once I added the unite to the App, I simply set it on top of my furnace, and now when the furnace turns on, an Alexa routine triggers a smart outlet to turn the UVC light on. When the furnace is not running, the routine triggers the outlet/light to turn off. It could hardly work more perfectly. I’m now dreaming up what else I could with these units.I have since bought several other YoLink products and they all work wonderfully, and they have some of the easiest setup I’ve experienced from any smart products. I called their tech support a few times to run a few different scenarios by them, and I always reached a person within 5 minutes. I hope they keep it up.Yolink products have excellent range and low power consumption due to the type of wireless tech they use (LoRa). Read up on it. YoLink, if you read this, please give your tech support person a raise. I spoke to the same person each time (which is amazing) and he really knew his stuff. Message me if you want to know who it was.

Great useful sensor.
Fies of all, like all Yolink devices, these are extremely easy to set up.Open the Yolink app, select scan from the top menu, scan the QR code on the device. At this point you are basically done. I like to give each device its own name to more easily identify it within the Yolink app and alexa. For example,bwith these sensors, I named them Washer sensor and Dryer sensor. Easy and straight forward of what and where they are.I was looking for something to let me know when my washer and/or dryer ended their cycle. This vibration sensor does the job. I have one on each machine. Yes my washer and dryer plays a little tune when they stop. The issue is, my washer and dryer are in my utility room. Walk out the kitchen door into the garage, then open the utility room door and there they are. There is a solid, insulated cement block wall and two doors between the living area of my house and the utility room. So I do not hear the washer or dryer running, let alone the ten second tune they play when they stop.These sensor solved the problem. Linked to an Alexa routine, when the washer ends its cycle, I hear: “Washer is done”, when the dryer is done I here: “Clothes are dry”. These are custom saying you can place in an alexa routine.There are setting to adjust the sensitivity, how long to wait to enter no vibration state. If detecting vibration, how often to notify you.I use this sensor to notify me when vibration stops, not starts. That is the other thing, you get to decide how YOU need to use this sensor.

This sensor has many uses – from detecting when the washing machine is done to seeing when the sump pump is running to detecting when a window is opened or broken and many many others. I actually use it in my car to see if the car has been turned on – it’s that sensitive (adjustable though).Like all Yolink products, the range is incredible (several blocks away) and the quality is excellent. It uses a standard AAA battery and lasts for months which is a bonus.Many electronics these days use built in lithium batteries that eventually fail, essentially making the device a consumable. I appreciate that Yolink uses standard batteries. You can use a rechargeable NIMH if you’d like.Would absolutely recommend for any of the above uses.

Achtung: US VersionIch habe dieses Set gekauft und eingerichtet. Alles funktioniert aber ich kann keine weiteren Sensoren hinzufügen, da es sich um eine US Version handelt. Sensoren für die EU lassen zwar koppeln, werden aber als offline angezeigt und übertragen keine Daten. Mit dem Support habe ich versucht das anzupassen aber ohne Erfolg.

I was looking for a way to know how many times my sump pump runs every day. So I thought this might be good … and it is perfect! I installed it on top of my check valve. So every time the pump runs, it makes the valve vibrating and the device detects it instantly and informs me through the app (or email). Great tools as always for all the YoLink products I bought!

Amazing Product!I just jumped into the YoLink ecosystem and am pleasantly surprised.I purchased two vibration sensors for my clothes washer and dryer to notify me when they were done their cycles and they work flawlessly. I reached out to support because I originally didn’t know how to set this up so I would get notified when the cycles stopped and they were quick to respond and guided me through how to setup an automation using the app. The app btw has an automation section resembling that of IFTTT and Samsung SmartThings.I also purchased the gate contact sensor, Power Failure Alarm, and hub products which I’m equally happy with.While some of the products advertised on Amazon don’t mention a hub is required I found that having it was a must to take advantage of all the features, and the instructions recommend having one as well.

This is a 18 month usage review. Purchased 2 vibration sensors and a hub for protection on the man doors for shed and garage. I attached them next to the door and have them on the lowest sensitivity setting with I would say around 98% detection rate. The email notifications worked perfect but recently noticed they have SMS notifications available (could have missed it)….tried it for several days and decided to subscribe to get enough monthly allowance for my usage. My doors are reinforced so it will take more than a few kicks to get in…..vibration sensor will give a heads up way before a door open sensor would alert me.
