Why LWR01 is different

Lafaer – a smart home sub-brand of networking innovator GL.iNet – delivers next-gen presence detection that outperforms traditional PIR motion sensors.

  • Battery-powered flexibility: Up to 1 year on AA batteries, or use USB-C for permanent power. Install almost anywhere.
  • mmWave precision: Detects micro-movements with a 3.5 m presence range (up to 6 m for motion), so lights stay on while you’re there.
  • Light-aware automation: A built-in ambient light sensor helps reduce energy use by triggering lights only when needed.
  • Matter-certified: Works with Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and other major ecosystems when connected through both a Thread Border Router and a Matter-compatible hub.
  • Privacy by design: No camera, no microphone—motion sensing only.
