How It Works

1
Plug in via USB-C
Connect the included USB-C cable to a wall adapter (or any USB power source). LED on top blinks to indicate pairing mode.
2
Pair with Zigbee Bridge
Open eWeLink → Zigbee Bridge → "Add subdevice". Sensor pairs in 20 seconds.
3
Place it on a desk or wall
Use the magnetic base. Aim it across the room - 4 m range, 90-180° cone. Avoid pointing at heat sources.
4
Build automations
In eWeLink: "If presence detected AND room is dark, turn on smart switch. If no presence for 60 seconds, turn off."

Product Details

Sonoff Zigbee Human Presence Sensor (SNZB-06P)

Unlike regular motion sensors that only detect movement, this presence sensor can detect someone just sitting still – even if they’re barely moving. It uses 5.8GHz radar technology to sense breathing and tiny body movements, so it knows when someone is in the room even if they’re reading, watching TV, or sleeping.

It also has a built-in light sensor, so it only triggers automations in the dark – saving energy.

Key Features:

  • True Presence Detection: Detects stationary people – not just motion. Lights stay on as long as someone is in the room.
  • Built-in Light Sensor: Only activates when the room is dark – saves energy during the day.
  • Fast Response: Detects presence quickly and keeps lights on until the room is truly empty.
  • USB-C Powered: Plug it in with the included USB-C cable and any USB adapter – no batteries to replace.
  • Smart Automations: Turn lights on when you enter, off when you leave – automatically.
  • Voice Control: Works with Google Assistant and Alexa (through a Zigbee hub).

Pro Tip: Install this in the bathroom – lights turn on automatically when you walk in and stay on while you’re inside (even if you’re not moving). The lights turn off only after you leave. No more waving your arms to trigger a regular motion sensor.

What You Get

Detects sitting still
Radar-based - knows you're in the room even when you're reading on the couch or sitting on the toilet. PIR sensors don't.
Built-in light sensor
Only fires automations when the room is dark. No turning on lights at noon for nothing.
USB-C, no batteries
Powered by the included USB-C cable. Plug into a wall adapter or even a USB outlet - no battery swaps.
Perfect for bathrooms + hallways
Lights on when you enter, stay on while you shower, off when truly empty. No more arm-waving at PIR sensors.
Fast response
Detects presence in under a second. Lights are on before you take the next step.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between this and a regular motion sensor? ›
Regular PIR motion sensors only detect movement - if you sit still, they think the room is empty and shut off the lights. This is a radar presence sensor: it detects you even when you're sitting still. Perfect for bathrooms, offices, or anywhere you want lights to stay on while you're not moving much.
Do I need a hub? ›
Yes - Zigbee device, not Wi-Fi. Needs a Sonoff Zigbee Bridge Pro, NSPanel Pro, or iHost. The sensor itself reports presence over Zigbee; the Bridge converts it to automations.
Is it compatible with Google Home? ›
Direct Google Home integration for the presence sensor isn't supported, but you can still use it in eWeLink automations to trigger Google-Home-compatible devices indirectly. Alexa exposure also depends on your hub version.
Can I install it myself? ›
Yes - no electrician needed. Plug the included USB-C cable into the sensor and any USB power source. Stand it on a desk or shelf, or fix the magnetic base to a wall with the 3M pad or screws.
What's the detection range? ›
Up to 4 meters. Coverage is roughly a 90-180° cone depending on mounting angle. Adjust sensitivity in eWeLink to fine-tune for your room.
Where should I mount it? ›
On a desk, shelf or wall, facing the area where people sit, within about 4 m. It is not made for ceiling mounting. For bathrooms or hallways, a spot on the wall facing the room works well. Avoid pointing it directly at a strong heat source (AC vent, heater), which can cause false triggers.
Why does the light sensor matter? ›
It means automations only fire when the room is already dark. No turning on lights at noon when there's plenty of sunlight - saves electricity and avoids the "why did the light just flicker?" moments.
Does it work during EDL cuts? ›
It needs USB power. If the sensor's adapter loses power, the sensor stops reporting. Plug into a small UPS or a USB power bank to keep it running through outages - and make sure your Zigbee Bridge has power too.
