Model: Tapo T110  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.10.0 Build 250226 Rel.142806

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!

Hello, 

 

Did the problem reappear later, and did you find an explanation? 

 

One of my sensor did exactly the same last night, and it was not a pleasant experience having my 3 alarms blasting at 5am. 

 

Also closed status, great signal, no notification of low battery. 

 

Did you try resetting or changing the battery? I can't find anything else regarding this problem. 

 

Thanks

Happened to me today around 5.30am with my front door sensor. What is remarkable, there is no log record about this false alarm, though normally triggered alarms are always logged.
 

Seems like this is current wider issue with Tapo as a service provider. Hopefully some updates will fix the issue, it’s not nice to be awaken by the intrusion alarm…

@Jall  Which sensor do you have? Is it also the Tapo T110?
