Simple Motion Sensor Switch Reviews

4.2 Rating 187 Reviews
I recently purchased a second set of Deako switches after using my initial order for six months in my new home. The motion sensors have been a game changer and are now a must-have in my garage, kids' bathroom, kids' closet, and master closet. I love the versatility—you can choose between two different timing settings or disable the motion sensor entirely to use it as a standard light switch. Just keep in mind that since these switches automatically turn off after the preselected time, they aren't managed through the app. Highly recommended!

Purchased 6 sensors for different areas. When installed in a multi-switch panel, they work seamlessly and I love them. However, they do not work at all on single switches, which is where I need them the most (e.g. pantry, closet, etc.). I've done all the troubleshooting noted on the Deako site and have tested and confirmed the motion switches do work. They just don't work on my single switches. So disappointed.

Thank you for your review! The Simple Motion Sensor Switches should only work in single pole locations, not multiways. We like to make sure that when we refer to single pole, it's one switch controls the light, not multiple (like a hallway). That can get confusing because light switches can be grouped with other switches in the same panel, known as a one-gang, two gang, three-gang, etc. If you haven't already, feel free to give us a call! There may be something going on with the wiring if the Motion Sensors aren't working as intended, as they need the neutral wire connected, so they won't work if that's disconnected, and the hot-in/load needs to be in the right places as well.

Great switch. The only wish is that there was a way to turn it off without turning off the motion sensor.

My first Simple Motion Switch was experiencing some issues with turning on without any movement. I contacted customer service to see if they had any advice as how to fix this or troubleshoot the issue. Customer service immediately sent me a new switch. Thank you for such outstanding customer service!

Works well, plug and play. But there are only 3 options for the on/off. 5 seconds, 5 minutes or 20 minutes. I wish there was a more customizable time
