R PRO-1 PoE dual mmWave Multisensor (LD2450 | additional LD2412 optional)

Great sensor. Support translating to inches would be nice to have for those in the USA

I recommend this sensor overall. It is accurate and versatile. The tools keep improving over time. Be sure to order the extra LD2412 mmWave Sensor to use it at it's best. If you are in the USA and have your Home Asistant defaulting to inches over millimeters you will need to change it back manually. It completely breaks the sensor from seeing position information. You then can create conversion helpers to inches for your dashboard if needed.

Confusing order process and poor customer service

Overall, incredibly great sensors!

I like that the sensors are PoE and significantly cheaper than the Everything Presence Pro. Seems to have a much deeper range than the Everything Presence Lite, but they should be the same sensor. I added the LD2412 to my R-PRO-1 (all of them), and they're great at detecting stillness. I remember hearing all these YouTube videos about "it knows you're breathing", but the Everything Presence Lite only has the LD2450, and while it's great at tracking targets, it's not good at all with stillness. That's where this device succeeds! Not a fair comparison, but those are the two I own. Zone Configuration is awful. Lots of weird stuff to install, requires a dashboard card that I don't want to add. The configurator settings didn't even seem to change anything, so I ended up doing it by hand instead. Seems to be very wonky. I want to define zones and exclusion zones, but it appears this device is either-or. It's not picking up my ceiling fan at least, but it also isn't something I ever wanna configure again.
