The Aqara SP-EUC01 gives Home Assistant local switching and energy readings through Zigbee2MQTT. It uses Zigbee rather than Wi-Fi, so the plug does not need an Aqara account or an IP connection to the vendor. Below are the pairing steps, metering entities, Energy dashboard setup, and two automation examples. The troubleshooting section also covers a…
The Aqara Camera Hub G2H Pro combines a 1080p indoor camera with an Aqara Zigbee hub. You can bring its HomeKit video into a local go2rtc and Frigate setup, but the RTSP address in that arrangement belongs to go2rtc, not the camera. This guide follows the practical route: provision the camera’s Wi-Fi, pair it to…
Pair the Aqara SJCGQ11LM or SJCGQ12LM to Home Assistant locally via Zigbee2MQTT — no hub, no cloud. Full setup, automations, and placement guide.
Aqara Cube T1 Pro: Home Assistant Automations via Zigbee2MQTT The Aqara Cube T1 Pro gives you physical controls for Home Assistant: shake to toggle a light, rotate to change brightness, or turn a numbered face upwards to select a scene. The useful part is choosing a small set of gestures that people can remember. This…
Aqara contact sensors can tell Home Assistant when a door, window, drawer, or cupboard opens. With Zigbee2MQTT they pair to your own coordinator, so you can build local lighting and household alerts without an Aqara hub, Mi Home app, or Aqara account. This guide covers the older MCCGQ11LM and the MCCGQ14LM E1, known as 门窗传感器…
The Aqara Hub M3 can run supported automations on the hub and expose devices to Home Assistant over Matter or HomeKit. Those are separate connections: a local HA integration does not make every Aqara app feature work offline. This guide covers both HA routes, the M3’s separate Thread border-router role, IR options, and an offline…
A robot vacuum’s app can depend on a vendor account and cloud connection even when the vacuum is on your home Wi-Fi. If you want its controls and map available locally, Valetudo is an option for specifically supported models. Valetudo replaces the cloud service used by the robot; it is not a replacement firmware. It…
The Aqara P1 (RTCGQ14LM, also sold as MS-S02) lets you adjust motion sensitivity and the interval between reports in Zigbee2MQTT. It runs on two CR2450 batteries and reports movement and illuminance to Home Assistant through your Zigbee coordinator. An Aqara hub or account is unnecessary for this route. There is one setting worth understanding before…
The Aqara Hub E1 bridges supported Aqara Zigbee devices to Home Assistant over HomeKit. The hub manages the Zigbee network; HA receives the accessories exposed by its firmware. That gives local control without turning the E1 into a ZHA or Z2M coordinator. If the E1 is already in Apple Home, remove that HomeKit binding without…
Many Xiaomi and Aqara Zigbee sensors work with Home Assistant through Zigbee2MQTT. Pair them with your own coordinator and HA can receive their readings without a vendor hub or account. Check the supported-device entry for the exact model first. The local path is device → Zigbee coordinator → Z2M → MQTT → HA. Your automations…
