Product notes
Aqara Thread portfolio / Matter positioning same family as P2 contact. Specs: Thread + BLE. Illuminance + motion together — type matrix motion_occupancy does not separately score light sensor.
Merged the duplicate CSA import record `aqara-aqara-motion-and-light-sensor-p2` (+1 source).
How it differs from the type answer
- Illuminance/light level is a SKU add-on vs motion_occupancy type row.
- Aqara Home configuration extras may need Hub M3 (same pattern as Door/Window P2).
- [light_sensor v0.20] Combo device: occupancy_sensor + light_sensor endpoints.
- [light_sensor v0.20] Alexa: illuminance not available at launch (Aqara) — Alexa light_sensor trigger may be absent.
- [light_sensor v0.20] Community reports ~1,500 lux reporting cap; lux reported on motion or poll (battery saving).
