Tapo T110 sensors triggering false intrusion alarms at night
Hi everyone,
I experienced something strange last night with my Tapo window/door sensors and wanted to check if anyone else has seen this.
I’ve been running my setup for over a year without any issues. Nothing has changed recently — same sensor positions, same hub location, same network.
I currently have 7 Tapo T110 window/door sensors installed in total.
However, last night:
- One sensor triggered an intrusion alarm at around 03:53
- A second, different sensor triggered a similar alarm at around 04:43
- In both cases, the status showed something like: “Closed and intrusion alarm triggered”
- So 2 out of 7 sensors were affected
Both sensors are installed on closed windows, and there was no actual movement or opening.
Important details:
- No prior false alarms in over a year
- No changes to installation or setup
- No battery warning in the app
- Both events happened during the night
- Different sensors, same hub
This makes me think it might not be a mounting issue, but something like:
- temporary hub or connection issue
- firmware glitch
Has anyone experienced similar behavior with multiple sensors triggering in the same night?
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks!
