Aqara U200 Overview - Apple HomeKey Retrofit Smart Lock!
I like your kitty.
I'm so confused. Mine only came with one mounting bracket. :/
Which country are you in? From various videos the accessories vary depending on your location
@@MarksTechVlogs I’m in Australia. But I’m not sure where the lock was sourced from.
Ah, I’m guessing they only include one in Australia…maybe to do with lock types
@@MarksTechVlogs which isn’t that helpful if I need the other mounting plate. There’s also a video on their official UA-cam for an adjustment plate but no mention of where or how to get it. It’s all incredibly confusing. I just want to install the device.
I’d drop switchbot support a message as I’m sure they’ll send one out. I think they even have a WhatsApp support which they usually reply pretty quickly to
Do you know what diameter the exhaust hose is? I know I need to order a longer one but dont know what size to order. Great video, I've brought one off of the back of this video. Cheers
Hey, it’s around 14-15 cm.
@@MarksTechVlogs thanks so much! Couldn’t find anything online about it.
its 4 chanel. Dies it save every chanel seperatly or is it all saved in one file?
Yes, 4 different clips
@@MarksTechVlogs okay good, thanks
Can you please tell me the height with lider? You said 92 mm but does that include the lidar section?
Yes it does
I have my devices set up and followed the home kit set up. I am unable to see it on the home screen but can find it as a hub only with the detectors. Have a missed a step?
Nope, it doesn’t appear as a block in the home app like a bulb does but if you go to the room and look across the top where you see sensors you should see a smoke sensor
@@MarksTechVlogs thank you, just keep seeing images even on the advertising that show on the home app and I was not seeing it that way. I have found them using your method though thanks
Thanks, I bought this because of your video and it’s pretty darn good. Loud, sure, but the noise is comforting to sleep to. Only question I have is how much does it cost to run? I’ve been putting it on for like 20 mins at a time but would like to sleep with it on when next week’s heatwave hits. Any experiential wisdom welcome 🙏
I was using it last night for a couple of hours and thanks to Octopus’ tracking it looks like it was only costing about 20p an hour but will keep checking as I use it this week some more!
@@MarksTechVlogs thanks, super helpful 🫡
Is this stereo compatible with a 2010 mk6 Golf?
I don’t know huge amounts about comparability but as long as you have space for a double din connector and can get the stereo wiring adapters then you should be able to use it with one
Hi - what electric underfloor heating mats are compatible with this thermostat?
I’m not sure with this one, Meross do one for underfloor heating so the spec might say amzn.to/4cymFMn
@@MarksTechVlogs thanks - Yes this is the one that I have purchased, but it doesn't say or recommend any compatible mats
I see, I don’t have underfloor heating and know nothing about it so I’m guessing the best thing to do will be to contact Meross support
If I've already chosen carplay device, how could I understand if it's going to fit my Smart 451 MHD? I'm pretty new to this kind of things so want to be sure before spending money? Stereo in question is Incar ARN-7710-6.
I can’t actually find a link to that stereo. Your best bet might be to look up the measurements of the Pioneer one I’ve linked in the description and see if the dimensions match the one you’re looking at
I have a Chubb 5 Lever mortice lock. It doesn't have a handle and the keyhole isn't like one of those modern euro ones. Can I use an Ultion Nuki?
Probably not an ultion Nuki but I’d contact Nuki to see if it’s compatible…or even switchbot about their lock pro
Wow, this video is packed with useful info! Your clear explanations and thorough demo of the features really set this apart. I'm definitely getting these smoke detectors now
Very helpful video thanks!
I have since bought a new fingerprint lock and it's superb... Ruveno Weatherproof Smart Door Lock with Handle: Fingerprint
I am interested to know that if I dont want to use the hub how many phones can I connect to the Fingerbot at once? Can it only be paired with one device? I want to use it to push buttons on the garage remote fob and give bluetooth access to various colleagues.
I’m not sure if you can pair to multiple phones unless you have the app and same login on them but you can use it without the hub as long as you’re in Bluetooth range
tried to install this at the weekend, and found that it stops the door handle going all the way down and preventing from actually opening the door
as in the handle catches on the lock? That's interesting...I wonder if you can change the handle to one that sticks out more?
@@MarksTechVlogs yeah as the handle goes down, the box of the switchbot gets in the way. its probably has to be getting a new handle that has more of a gap between it and the door
Do you know of any smart multi locks that work with apples home key?
At the moment no but the Aqara U200 which is now due out in July should be compatible and have Apple home key. I will be reviewing one as soon as it’s out
Do you still need to life the handle to lock?
If it’s a multi point lock then yes
I already have A roborock S8. But would been even more fun with a small one swiping the tight spaces 😂
the fingerbot doesnt connect to alexa
It might be worth reaching out to them as it’s still listed as supported on their website

Hi Mark - really informative videos thank you! Like you I have a door which requires an extra little turn on the key to gain entry from outside. Does this mean that I would be forced to use the Nuki app to unlock my front door with HomeKit currently only supporting “locked” and “unlocked”?
The simple answer is yes… The more complicated answer is that if your door is locked then unlocking from the home app will also do that little extra turn but if all you need to do is that little extra turn then you’ll need to use the Niki app…I usually trigger that open from a Niki widget on my home screen The ‘open’ feature has actually been added to Matter 1.2 so at some point for the 4th gen Nuki locks it should make it into the Apple Home app but I have no idea when Apple will add it!
@@MarksTechVlogs gotcha - I wonder whether this is what’s holding back Nuki from offering Apple homekey support :( So in the meantime, if I understand correctly, if my door is fully locked, say when I come back from work, the lock will Auto Unlock using Bluetooth. But if I nip out to the car and shit the door behind me I use the app like you say.
@@stugedwards Yes that's right, I think it's to do with how Apple verify Homekey and at the moment there's no retrofit Homekey lock available however, the Aqara U200 is due out in July and does have Homekey so whether that will open up the door for Nuki to implement it will be interesting to see
@@MarksTechVlogs great - thanks for your help - much appreciated 👍🏻
Can this Dashcam be hucked up to a portable apple carplay android auto screen that has the capability of a reversing camera 🤔
I don’t think it can be as there’s no video out
For How many days internal 4GB Storage by recording the whole day?
is it adjustable as in moving it upwards and downwards?
No, only tilting
Thanks for the discount, looking forward to trying.
I’m still using it and think it’s great, hope you’re just as happy 😀
I have used Nuki 2 and 3 and also Yale Linus in several Holiday Rentals that I manage. I switched all of them to Switchbot, for several reasons : Price, Battery Life and Functions. Battery life is 50% better than Yale and 40% better than Nuki. The Mini Hub (I also have the Hub 2 in several houses is cheap and had a at least a 5 x longer range than the hubs from Nuki and Yale, which enables me to pair 3 locks in certain houses with 1 hub. Besides that in many Holiday Rentals the hub now also pilotes the airconditioning from a distance, which means big savings for the owners. In certain house I have lights at the entrance coupled to the switchbot, so that when the lock opens the door a light goes on as well. The Switchbot lock allows temporary codes which can be set for 15 minutes minimum and also unique codes that can be used only once. You mention that the Switchbot Pro Lock does not have that ? I will find that out tomorrow when I will install 4 of those for a new listing. The Switchbot helpdesk is super reactive and offer great service. I am sure that the functions of the old Switchbot lock will (soon) be available for the Pro Lock if that is not already the case. We use wifi for all our locks and Switchbot costs half the price of Nuki, offers more functions, and is sooo much quieter than the loud Nuki lock. The only thing for which Nuki is ‘’better’’ is that Nuki has integrations with more rental software companies than Switchbot. But I don’t use that functionnality, we welcome all our guests personnally and then let them choose their code for the duration of their stay until their check-out time. Switchbot also is more compatible with more keys and knobs than any other smartlock.
Awesome to hear about your setup, I do love the Switchbot lock Pro 😀
this monitor is perfect Ive js got it the other day nd have no complaints
I have the same one but my is hella slow idk why any help ?
@@Anonymous--123why slow wdym?
@@renjuh nvm my dumbass pluged the cabel in the wrong place this shit a NASA monitor 🔥🔥🔥
Hi, what does it not do that the previous mini does?
Essentially it’s just the addition of Matter support. There’s a handy table on this page comparing the old and new mini’s alongside the Hub 2 uk.switch-bot.com/products/switchbot-hub-mini-matter-enabled
I see some people in the Kickstarter program have received their U200s and yes Homekey is included. I’m looking forward to your review when you get one 😊
I think it's pretty loud
Hi. Useful vlog thank you. I have Apple phones but I have no idea what the apple HomeKit is that you refer to. Do I need a hub or apple tv or does this work on my phone? You mentioned having apple tv but is this necessary? Thanks.
Hey, so HomeKit is Apple’s name for devices that work/appear in the Home app on your iPhone. If you get the Ultion Nuki Plus which has WiFi built in you don’t need anything else for out of home access but if you get the base model then you’ll need something like a HomePod Mini or Apple TV which will act as a hub so you have out of home access
How to reset from account I get builder hand second
The person who sold it to you should have reset it from their account. You may need to get in touch with them
my door has a split spindle (door locks when u close it becasue the outside handledoesn't pull the lock back - they key does that
I think that's the same as mine although mine only has one actual spindle but even if the door is unlocked from the outside I still need to put the key in and give it an extra turn for it to open from the outside, is that the same as yours? If so either the Nuki or Switchbot Lock Pro would work
@@MarksTechVlogs yeah I need to put the key in to open it. One though is I need a lock with a keypad
You can get external keypads for both the Nuki and the Switchbot which go on the outside of your house
they say you need a gpu to run on 240hz is that true?, i have it on display selection
I’ve just double checked the AOC website and I think you’re right

Hi, is the Locks touch discontinued, I can't find it anywhere?
Yes, unfortunately they announced a couple of weeks ago they were filing for bankruptcy
Please tell me how to achieve those electrical connections, parts and tools to use.
The hard wiring is easy, you just need a small Philips screwdriver and the wires with the hard wire kit just wrap around the connectors and you tighten the screws. The manual has instructions for this too
@@MarksTechVlogs i mean the fork or rounded type connectors on your doorbell, I guess you need some kind of crimper to do that.
@@MarksTechVlogs 5:52 here
@@GabrielLuna81 The hard wire kit I got had the cable pre-crimp so I could wrap them round by hand with no extra tools
Could you add an extra one to your hot water?
I’m not sure if it would be compatible. Best to contact the company to check
wherever I search not 1 person mentions the exact size (DIAMETER) of the extraction flexi hose pipe???? Can you tell me this? as I don't have a window in my office... or at least a window with an opener... so I am drilling a hole through wall... and I cannot find the size of this pipe anywhere.......
Just measured it for you...the distance from one side to the other of the pipe across the centre is roughly 14cm
@@MarksTechVlogs Mark - YOU ARE A STAR!! to get this info is like drawing feckn teeth you know!! haha,.. no sellers seem to give it!! which is fine if you have a window etc etc...This seems an odd size though... I was hoping it would be standard 150mm (15cm) flexi hose... and I had put all this into my shopping trolley (as I am trying to do a pro job at my lass's salon) So I will be drilling a 150mm hole through concrete walls... then I'm putting on a louvre vent with the 150mm flange to connect the flexi hose to... I'm maybe guessing here... but maybe the 14cm pipe will stretch over onto 15cm???? whatya thinks Mark?? (thanks again for a super quick reply...am in Mallorca btw!! - a Scot stuck on Mallorca!)
@@martintramuntbikemallorcak481 It is a flexible pipe so I think you'd get away with a 15cm hole and it should be fine

No problem, always happy to help people out 😀
The main problem with the remote is it doesn't have a keypad. Before I enter 3 numbers with the wheel, the channel has changed.

voice recording in dash camera ????
Yes it does record audio but you can turn it off too
Hi There I would like to order the smart lock, but i am wonder will it fit for the foront door, i have a mulit-point lock in the front door, which is a wood door
I think it will fit but you may have to drill some more holes. If you contact Simple’s support they will be able to help more and tend to reply pretty quickly
@@MarksTechVlogs Do you suggest SImpled or the Nutrion ?
Personally, I think the ultion Nuki, Nuki or switchbot lock pro are better because they’re more secure and Apple HomeKit/matter compatible
Although I like the capabilities of this remote is has MANY draw-backs! I use the SofaBaton U2 remote and here's why I like it over the XS1. First, rechargeable battery over conventional AA batteries! The X1S remote is rendered USELESS when dead and CANNOT be used until it has enough of a charge to use it. The U2 you can simply swap in NEW batteries in seconds and you are up and running without the wait. Second, the LACK of physical buttons FORCING you to use the scroll-wheel and on-screen menus vs. the buttons of the U2. With the U2 you can program macros using a single button press eliminating all the scrolling and dicking around with the scroll ball to do what you ACTUALLY need. I absolutely HATE rechargeable remotes cuz when they are dead so are YOU! You can't do DICK without a remote and if it's dead and takes 15min to get enough charge to actually use when totally dead it's WORTHLESS to me in the "real world". The high-end Logitech Harmony remotes were notorious for this and HATED it! Not too simple to replace the dead rechargeable battery in most of these remotes either and their charge decreases rapidly too because they all use cheap cells. The U2 is pretty simple to setup and does EXACTLY what you want without the EXTRA price and hassle of having to CONSTANTLY having to charge it and are shit-out-of-luck if you forgot to charge it! Just a "real-world" opinion and actual day-to-day user!
Thanks for sharing 🙏
Nuki already has all of this except for homekey
little bit late, but im wondering if you NEED speakers to have decent sound quality with this record player, i know speakers would obviously be better but just wondering if I could temporarily use the turntable with no speakers attached until i get speakers. Once speakers are bought, what speakers do you recommend? not looking to spend a load of money.
You 100% need speakers as it doesn’t have any built in. These are the ones I use which sound pretty good (in my opinion) and weren’t expensive amzn.to/4ayubFW but I’m by no means a speaker expert!
@MarksTechVlogs thank you so much, just confirming, do the speakers I use need to be wired or is Bluetooth an option with this record player?
They need to be wired speakers as the model of turntable I reviewed doesn’t have Bluetooth, I think there is a Bluetooth modal though and it should be linked in the description although I think you’ll get a better sound quality from a wired connection
