Hey , Drop a few fun DIY hacks I’ve been playing with using Aqara sensors lately. Nothing fancy, just some creative tweaks that made my setup way cooler and actually more useful day-to-day.
So first off, I stuck a vibration sensor on my mailbox out front. Now every time the mail drops in, I get a ping. Super handy because I’m lazy and it’s freezing outside lately.
Then I used a door and window sensor on the fridge. Yeah, weird I know—but it alerts me if the fridge stays open for more than a minute. Let me tell you, it’s already saved my groceries once when my kid didn’t shut it properly.
Also tried using a motion sensor in my bathroom—not for lights, but to trigger my Spotify playlist in the morning. Totally changes the vibe when you’re half-asleep.
Anyone else doing weird or fun stuff like this with their Aqara gear? Would love to hear! Always looking for new ideas to geek out on.
