The Ring Alarm Motion Detector (2nd Generation) has a sleek, modern design that seamlessly blends into various home interiors. It is compact, measuring approximately 2.6 x 2.6 x 1.5 inches, and lightweight, making it easy to mount on walls or corners. The build quality is robust, with a durable plastic casing that withstands everyday wear and tear. The device also features an adjustable angle mount, allowing for flexible installation to cover a wide range of motion detection areas.
### Installation and Setup
The installation process is straightforward and user-friendly. The device comes with all the necessary mounting hardware, including screws and adhesive tape. The Ring app guides users through the setup process with clear, step-by-step instructions. Most users can complete the installation in under 15 minutes. The motion detector connects wirelessly to the Ring Alarm Base Station, and the setup process includes a test mode to ensure proper placement and functionality.
### Performance and Reliability
Over the long term, the Ring Alarm Motion Detector (2nd Generation) demonstrates consistent performance. The device employs Passive Infrared (PIR) technology to detect motion up to 30 feet away within a 90-degree field of view. It effectively distinguishes between large and small objects, reducing the likelihood of false alarms triggered by pets or minor movements. The sensitivity settings can be adjusted via the Ring app, allowing customization based on the specific environment and user preferences.
The motion detector integrates seamlessly with other Ring Alarm components, such as door/window sensors and cameras, providing comprehensive security coverage. Notifications are prompt and reliable, with minimal latency between motion detection and alert delivery.
### Battery Life
The device is powered by two AA batteries, which are included in the package. Under normal conditions, the batteries can last up to three years, a significant improvement over the first-generation model. The Ring app provides battery status updates, ensuring users are informed when replacements are needed. Long-term users report that battery life is consistent with the manufacturer’s claims, contributing to the device's low maintenance requirements.
### Integration with Ring Ecosystem and Smart Home Systems
The Ring Alarm Motion Detector (2nd Generation) integrates smoothly with the broader Ring ecosystem. It works in tandem with Ring cameras, lights, and the Ring Alarm Base Station, creating a cohesive and responsive security system. The device is also compatible with Amazon Alexa, allowing users to control and monitor the system using voice commands.
For smart home enthusiasts, the motion detector's compatibility with third-party systems, like Z-Wave, enhances its versatility. This interoperability allows users to incorporate the device into a more extensive smart home setup, leveraging automation routines and triggers to improve security and convenience.

Very good
I'm loving these in my Ring alarm setup.These aren't your typical PIRs for house alarms, you can check the app and see when movement was last detected at any point.This has a multitude of uses, such as monitoring elderly I can clearly see my independent living dad is up and going about his day without invading his privacy with cameras or routine phone calls 'checking in'I also have one in my shed so it turns on a smart light via Alexa, and after 5 minutes of no motion detection to turn it off again & it works brilliantly.Can also setup Alerts etc while ive not set it up personally, a scenario like if you had a private area of your house perhaps in the west wing of your country estate - you can set it to alert you if motion is detected.And of course, you can arm your alarm system and trigger sirens etc, it also has settings for small/large pets which seem to work quite well, or you can disconnect the sensor from triggering the alarm all together and just use it as a smart sensor like I previously mentioned,Battery life is also excellent, mine are detecting movement many times a day and have been running for a year non stop and battery (according to indicator) is slightly below half.Only issue I've had is one using the adhesive one of my 3 sensors fell off the wall after 6 months, so I've resorted to fixing them with screws.So overall, a great bit of kit, big fan of the Ring alarm gear!

I'm loving these in my Ring alarm setup.
These aren't your typical PIRs for house alarms, you can check the app and see when movement was last detected at any point.
This has a multitude of uses, such as monitoring elderly I can clearly see my independent living dad is up and going about his day without invading his privacy with cameras or routine phone calls 'checking in'
I also have one in my shed so it turns on a smart light via Alexa, and after 5 minutes of no motion detection to turn it off again & it works brilliantly.
Can also setup Alerts etc while ive not set it up personally, a scenario like if you had a private area of your house perhaps in the west wing of your country estate - you can set it to alert you if motion is detected.
And of course, you can arm your alarm system and trigger sirens etc, it also has settings for small/large pets which seem to work quite well, or you can disconnect the sensor from triggering the alarm all together and just use it as a smart sensor like I previously mentioned,
Battery life is also excellent, mine are detecting movement many times a day and have been running for a year non stop and battery (according to indicator) is slightly below half.
Only issue I've had is one using the adhesive one of my 3 sensors fell off the wall after 6 months, so I've resorted to fixing them with screws.
