Hubitat C8 Zigbee 3.0...will Aqara, Linkind, Ikea, etc work now?

What's the odds that their oddballs will work now? I don't claim to understand why they didn't but with the upgrade from Zigbee 1.2 to 3.0 can we finally dig out these devices from the extra box? Would love to retire my Home Assistant instance.

Are you sure your devices are zigbee 3.0?

They should work fine with a ZHA 1.2 hub like the pre-C8 Hubitat models.

Older Aqara devices, for example, use a non-standard zigbee profile, which is why they cause problems. Newer Aqara devices that are actually zigbee 3.0 compliant aren’t known to be problematic as far as I know.

Ikea blinds are no problem either.

Will the C8 support Zigbee greenpower devices as that is part of Zigbee 3.0? If it will work with the battery-free switches that would be a reason to upgrade for me. No more changing batteries :slight_smile:

Green power is currently not supported in the hub code, it is something that we are talking about.
