Hi quick question that I can’t find an answer to. Will lights on smart plugs and bulbs set of the ring second generation motion detectors?

    Hi @JamesE. That's a great question. Generally speaking, this shouldn't cause your Ring Alarm Motion Detecter to be triggered. However, if a lightbulb is left on for an extended amount of time and is in close proximity to the Motion Detector, this could cause a false alarm do to the heat from the lightbulb. Any visible heat source should be moved away from the Motion Detector for this reason. I hope this helps!

      Thanks Tom, You may know the answer to another question I have.. When using ring cameras (indoor and outdoor) in home or away mode. If motion is detected in the house by these cameras in the above modes, will it set off the ring alarm?
