Wyze Labs has introduced a $20 home security sensor kit to pair with its highly regarded $20 Wyze Cam. The Wyze Sense starter kit bundles two contact sensors, a motion detector, and the Wyze Bridge.
Wyze Cam and Wyze Cam Pan are still 2 of the great and inexpensive connected cameras on the market.
Adding the sensors to detect doors and other things being opened without requiring motion detection is a great improvement since you may have lots of foot traffic by your front door, but not need to see the footage unless the door is actually opened (eg: dog walker arriving and a dog running around your house all morning).
Wyze maximizing battery life by utilizing the Wyze cam WiFi is a great feature as well.
Hardware is hard, so great to see some new innovation. I think there's a lot of room for innovation in cameras in particular so this is perhaps just the beginning.
Killer product guys. I recommend adding moisture sensors. Water damage cost is huge, and common. People can put them near their washing machine, under sinks, waterheater. A must for property (and Airbnb) managers.
