I have been scouring the boards looking for motion/occupancy sensor options. It seems like there are lots of good options, which I had listed but the computer crashed . I don't remember them all, but the BV500 was recommended to me by the fine folks at automated outlet. I like the fact that it has a glass break built in, which is something I need anyway.
My concern is that it won't be sensitive enough for occupancy detection in a room where someone is sleeping. I'd like to use them for keeping the fan on. If I were to set a timer on the Elk that restarts every time it sees motion, which turns off after 5 minutes of no motion, is it likely to keep the fan on by detect people rolling over in bed and with general sleep movement? Also, will the ceiling fan interfere with it (I'm guessing not).
