Description

The TP-Link Tapo T100 is a smart motion sensor built to enhance home security and convenience by detecting movement and triggering automated actions. It integrates seamlessly into the wider Tapo ecosystem, giving households an extra layer of security and hands-free control at home.

Delivering wide range detection, the TP-Link Tapo T100 captures motion up to 23 ft (7m) away and through a 120° view, ensuring reliable coverage across most rooms, hallways, and entryways without leaving blind spots.

Adjustable sensitivity is a defining strength of this sensor, letting users tailor detection coverage with 3 different levels to satisfy the needs of different occasions, helping filter out false triggers while still catching genuine movement.

Flexible placement adds further customization, with a rotatable sensor offering a 120° view that lets users adjust the detection zone and avoid accidental activations—useful for households with pets moving around the home.

Motion-activated automation is central to the T100’s everyday value, letting users control smart lights based on movement and schedule so hallway or bedroom lights turn on automatically without flipping a switch or saying a word.

Energy saving is built into daily use as well, automatically turning on connected smart devices when users come and go, while instant alerts and app notifications keep homeowners informed in Away Mode for anything they want to know.

Security is enhanced through Smart Action integration, letting the motion sensor trigger an alarm to deter intruders if anything is detected while the home is unoccupied, combining with the Tapo Hub for added audible alert coverage.

Battery-powered convenience rounds out the design, with a compact CR2450 battery supporting up to 2 years of use, and easy installation through attached 3M adhesive or the built-in magnet, requiring no wiring at all.

A Tapo Hub is required to unlock full smart features, acting as the bridge that connects the T100 into the broader Tapo smart home ecosystem alongside window/door sensors, smart switches, buttons, and temperature/humidity sensors.

Altogether, the TP-Link Tapo T100 combines wide-range motion detection, adjustable sensitivity, and effortless battery-powered installation, making it a smart, affordable choice for households wanting reliable motion-based automation and security.
