Today I want to talk about the Aeotec Multipurpose sensor and explain why it should be your sensor of choice for your Aeotec/SmartThings hub. Aeotec replicates the devices that were previously manufactured by Samsung SmartThings. They are the exclusive hardware producer of the SmartThings devices. Aeotec devices include the Multipurpose Sensor, the Motion Sensor, the Water Leak Sensor and the SmartThings Button.
Aeotec also produces their version of the former SmartThings Smart Plug which features power monitoring capability, just like the former SmartThings plug. They produce a 360 degree indoor Security Camera, a Z-wave Range Extender, plus may more sensors that are directly compatible with the SmartThings platform.
