What's the difference between motion sensors with part number MS3 and MOS301?

It appears that there are two part numbers for motion sensors for the current generation - the MS3 which is the orange and brown cardboard box and the MOS301 which appears to be a sealed black and white box. Is this just a difference in packaging (direct from vendor vs. retail) or are there differences in the product?

Hi @worthing,

You're right - the different SKU numbers are just a difference in packaging, not product. Motion Sensors with the MS3 SKU are sold internally, while the MOS301 SKU is sold by our retailers.

Bump. It's been almost a week and the forums aren't this busy y'all. Can someone please give me an answer to what I assume is an easy question for y'all to answer? :)

How Can I Tell What Motion Sensor I Need ?

I Tryed To Buy Another Sensor From Amazon But It Did Not Work.

I Have A Gen 3 System ( I Think ) I Bought It September 2022.

Any Help Would Be Great.

Thanks,
