Oh thanks! That's great news. Every box I've read says it needs the Aqara hub or doesn't work with 3rd party hubs. Especially on Amazon.

Yeah, it threw me at first too, but its nonsense. I have about 20 Aqara sensors and switches without the Aqara hub. I use the Sonoff USB coordinator.

I always use this great resource to check compatibility:

I can confirm their light switches and door/window sensors work as well.
