Ecolink 800LR Timetable

I wrote a note to Ecolink asking about a timetable for rollout of 800LR contact sensors.
I should have included all sensors in my request, but maybe this response covers them:

We are actively developing those sensors.

There are a few final details needing attention.

We are hoping for this first quarter, or early next quarter.

This is good news. We need more LR contact sensor options. I really like Zooz stuff but their LR contact sensors do not live up to the hype.

The form factor is nice, and they're good for in the house, in my case at least.

On the other hand, their tilt sensors have been a disappointment.

I'm tempted to try a Zen16 800LR for my mailbox application. It has a dry contact input for a dumb contact sensor, and it's powered by usb or 12-24v ac/dc. Maybe this power input will allow it a better range.

Of course i will then have to figure out a battery/solar charging solution to power it.

I have an 800 long range zooz motion sensor ZSE18 in my mailbox.
