Amazon Echo Skill not showing devices from 1 of 2 hubs

I've got a Hubitiat hub in each of my 2 homes, but am only seeing and controlling hubitat devices via Alexa at one location. The amazon alexa skill is loaded as a app on both hubs.
Any ideas? Or am I limited to using voice control at one location?

This - one Hubitat hub per Alexa account. You have two choices:

  1. Use different Alexa accounts in each house.
  2. Use HubConnect to share devices between your two hubs over the internet, and then use the Amazon Echo skill on one of them to expose the devices you want to Alexa.

Thanks - I'll check into HubConnect. I've not used that before...
Any down side to using it ?

Before Hub Mesh, I was using it to share devices between my two hubs. But both of mine are on the same LAN, so everything was very fast. I imagine using the cloud will add some latency.
