I was looking at main brands but there's barely anything out there in the zigbee protocol Most are tuya on aliexpress etc. I'm a but weary of those. Does anyone have recommendations? Real world experience with any, good or bad? I have a lot of smart devices, cameras, door switches, lighting, door locks, bell, plugs etc. Not found anything in an brands I already have or an unsure of them... Philips hue, Google home, Alexa, zemismart, tuya, switchbot, meross, and more. I want a reliable product with no issue with a smoke alarm. submitted by /u/NectarinePositive599 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Idk if that's even a thing? But I'm Interested in the idea and I'd like to gather data about but it's so hard to find info. I'd also prefer to not have to start from scratch. Basically I'd like to set up a network so the devices could communicate, but I don't want to expose them to the internet. If that makes sense? submitted by /u/ResultForward4292 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I have a outdoor gate that I (and many other redditors judging by a search I did) want to install a weatherproof waterproof outdoor smart lock but it doesn't exist. All the ones on the market are waterproof for the exterior side (keypad side) but not the other side. I installed a Schlage and caulked around it but during a rainstorm water still got in and broke it. This was 5 years ago. I did another search now thinking for sure some major company made one but NOPE. What a HUGE void in the market. I'm looking for one that also has a key option as well (for backup). Please don't post DIY option ..read more

Has anyone used iblinds to control Norman SmartPrivacy faux wood blinds (marketing term, they aren’t smart in the home automation sense)? They appear to meet the iblinds requirements, except the tilt rod exits the blind header at an angle on the side bottom, and not flat. I’m not sure why iblinds says that won’t work. submitted by /u/lucidrenegade [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Looking for external temperature monitor so it can monitor the temperature near my couch rather than by the plug. This external temperature monitor would connect to the smart plug to auto turn on the plug when temperature goes above a specific temperature. My AC doesn't have remote capabilities, but it's just knob based. It has this plug https://i.imgur.com/Rmj0D6U.jpg submitted by /u/ThrivingLight [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Any recommendations for a Zwave leak sensor that works with the Ezlo hub? Many of the ones they recommend are discontinued, and those that aren't, are really designed for sump pumps (long leads with probes). I've tried the Zigbee ones, but they are simply not reliable around my WiFi, even after adjusting channels. Ideally, it would be small, without a lead / probe (just contacts on the bottom), similar to the Aeotec Zigbee one, just Zwave. submitted by /u/RawMaterial11 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello World! I have am starting out in my Home Automation Journey. Currently I have HomeAssistant Proxy Server Overseerr Google Home Speakers 1x Speaker 1x Nest Seedbox (Hosted Externally) Plex Radarr Sonarr SmartLights across my house My question is, would switching across to Apple Home kit be better for handling requests from a Voice Assistant/ Streaming Music from Apple Music vs Spotify. I have looked at a few different Reddit Posts and most of them are a year old so I was wondering has there been anything improved in that last year.
