can smarthings hub v2 talk to Lutron Maestro sensor switch MS-OPS2?
That’s a nice device (I have one in my own laundry room), but it’s not smart device. No radio of any kind. So it doesn’t work with SmartThings or any home automation system. It’s just a dumb switch with a built-in motion sensor. That’s why it costs so much less than the smart switches.
I suppose theoretically you could add an in wall micro further upstream and cut the power to the circuit all together from SmartThings, which is essentially the same as throwing the circuit breaker, but it’s not really giving you much functionality and you’re never going to have access to the sensor in the switch. And I’m pretty sure just turning the power back on at the switch won’t actually turn the light on, it would still need the motion trigger. Cutting the power to the switch would turn it off. But still it’s a pretty limited use
Most people just use a separate sensor device with a regular smart switch.
GE did come out with a smart switch with a built-in motion sensor about a year ago, and some people are using that.

Thank you!. I guess I will use this in area/rooms where i don’t care for it to be smart. ( laundry/pantry/Garage) and use the GE one that you suggested in main areas. do you know off the top of your head if this GE Swich is dimmable switch?
To be clear, I’m not personally recommending any of the GE switches as I don’t use them, but they are a popular budget brand. ( I use Lutron Caseta switches at my own house. )
The GE zwave motion switches come in both an on/off switch and a dimmer model.

You can talk to the people using them in the following thread:
This is for the regular GE On/Off Motion switch 26931. The DTH for the motion dimmer can be found here. This device handler supports all of the options of the switch with the exception of doubletap, which has yet to be implemented. Some examples of what you can do with this dimmer/switch include: Occupancy only during certain hours, vacancy mode other times. (in a bedroom, occupancy during the day, vacancy or manual mode at night) No need for cloud processing smart apps. Use the device’s own motion sensor to turn on the light - or other zwave lights with association groups. Virtually no delay. Key features: Control Occupancy/Vacancy/Manual modes - Exposed to webCoRE/CoRE Control timeout duration (If in occupancy/vacancy modes) Motion Sensitivity - High Med Low Light Sensing (does no…
