Working well with SmartThings and Hue
I have this set up to turn on/off my Hue kitchen lights based on motion and light level in the room using SmartThings. Working great.The unit's light sensor is helpful because it means you are only triggering the room lights to turn on when it is actually dark. SmartThings lets you include this parameter when programming the action to turn on the lights.With SmartThings, you can also program the room light(s) to turn off when motion is not detected for a period of time. This motion sensor is accurate enough to handle it.It has a noticeable green light in the upper-right corner of the front face that flashes when it detects motion. It is noticeable and brighter than typical. According to the documentation and some forums, you can access the customization parameters to disable the green light and adjust a few other parameters. I didn't dive that deep. These options aren't on the surface in SmartThings and require more advanced knowledge.Of course, you can use this motion sensor as a trigger for all sorts of things. I'm just using it for my Hue lights.I'm not using the temperature sensor but it does work.Overall, I am satisfied with this sensor. It reliably picks up motion and the light sensor makes it perfect for my application. I am getting no false triggers. Plus, it's small. The only downside is the green light on motion. It's a little bright. Minor.(photo: the motion sensor is sitting next to a SmartThings button on a shelf in front of a window)

So much better than the MultiSensor 6.
I have a MultiSensor 6 which is an ok sensor.The biggest problem i have with it is that the real world range on the MultiSensor has never been anything to be excited about.In my situation, i had it placed in a room opposite the door so that when i walked in (depending on hour and other decisions), it would start some automation, one of which was to turn on the lights. The problem i had was that it would only trigger when i was already pretty much at the sensor, even on the highest sensitivity.Based on a few reviews i decided to give the TriSensor a shot and it's so much better!The motion detection range seems to have increased considerably. So much so that i had to change its location as when placed next to the MultiSensor it triggered when someone walked by the room without entering it.Temperature sensor and lux sensor both seem consistent which is also an upgrade from the MultiSensor where the temperature always seemed to be quite a bit off despite fixing offsets.I wish the TriSensor also had a RH sensor, but it'll do.Add to that the the TriSensor also looks better (IMO) and has a diffuser on the multi colored LED, and it's pretty much a win for me.I assume Aeotec will soon phase out the current model of the MultiSensor 6 and replace it with this design, but for now, i'm happy with the TriSensor.Note that i'm using SmartThings, and the DH that Aeotec recommended on the support page was giving me issues. Once i found the DH from "krlaframboise" i started really loving this little sensor.

Very inaccurate temperature reading - 4.8 F off at room temp
I have this sensor next to a Honeywell and WH31E temperature sensor all indoors within 12 inches of each other. Both other sensors agree that it is 74 degrees F, the Aeotec sensor reads 78.8 F. Come on guys, its temperature, how hard could it be? The motion sensor works fine. I can't tell how accurate the light sensor is but it seems to reflect light and dark appropriately. But being so inaccurate on temperature is not useful to me as I need to detect freezing versus non-freezing so a 4.8 degree swing at room temperature is a non-starter.Update 3/23/2022This device is incredibly unreliable when integrated with Smartthings routines. I set a temperature alert and it sent a notification exactly once and never again. I added a battery alert and a motion alert and the temperature notifications just stopped. I've confirmed the routine is there, confirmed the device was awake, monitored all the events in debug mode and... nothing. At the very least I would not plan on using this with smartthings unless you want to spend days trying to figure out why it wont consistently do what it is clearly setup correctly to do.Update 2/22/2025Something happened with the acquisition of smartthings with Aeotec. I've got a house full of Aeotec devices that are either offline or not working properly. The whole move to Edge drivers was a disaster. Don't invest in this brand of automation. All my outlets are offline with no solution and all my Trisensors no longer report battery status or allow configuring F vs C or adding routines. Invest in some other brand of home automation. I've been totally burned by investing in this mess.
