Model: Tapo T100  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.12.0

The Sensor keeps raising false positive even when their is no motion in room, nor their is light interference. I had purchased 3 motion sensors and the issue is only with one, the other two are working as expected in the same condition.

Try to change a new battery, factory reset the sensor and reconfigure it.
