Yeah, I have read many comments regarding ZHA vs ZLL which is why I left my ZLL bulbs on the hue bridge. However I understand it only applies to bulbs and mains connected device (i.e. stuff that repeats) so the battery devices shouldn't be an issue as they are non repeating. My samsung contact sensors and hue motion sensors have been solid on hubitat. It's just the hue dimmers that are not playing nice on hubitat and from the sounds of posts in the forum, its quite a common issue. Gonna have to look into a conbee2 i guess.... another rabbit hole to run down to

FYI
I completed my C4 to C7 migration over a week ago and I’m really happy with how it went and how it’s been functioning.
I allocated 2 days, followed the accepted practice of building outwards from the hub with repeaters, restoring the backup onto the C7.
I did the Zigbee mesh first (day 1) and it picked up 98% of my devices with only a couple which needed a battery pull for them to be detected and one that was detected as new device, as if itd been fully reset.
Zwave (day 2 but really only 3-4 hours) was just as easy, but I have less than a dozen Zwave switches, contacts and repeaters, following @bravenel’s guide.
The two days allowed plenty of time to test and confirm, each device’s operation with the hub, without stressing me out.

I've got a couple of the Shelly dimmers. They're great. A bit of fiddling to get the settings right to stop flicker but happy with how they're working now. I initially thought I'd Tasmota them but they are natively supported in HE so no need. I like the web interface on the Shelly. I'm guessing you'd lose that if tasmotised.

Oh nice, I didn’t realise they had native support.
Can someone help me out with who I would tag to get the attention of official support? I have sent 2 emails to the official support address over the past 3 weeks, as well as posting a message on the official FB page, with no response so far (as far as I know}. I say as far as I know as my email messed up over 3 days coving the weekend just gone, and I didn't receive all my messages. So it is possible they responded then, but not as far as I know. My hub has been stuck on 85% initialising for 3 weeks and I just want to hear from someone.
@bravenel is one I think, who are the others?
@bobbyD Check post above.

Hi there, if it's more convenient, you can send me a private message, here. I didn't notice any messages in the Facebook group and didn't see any emails coming through from you.

All sorted. Back up and running after a soft reset.

Ok, I'm preparing myself for a lynching here. I own a smartthings hub I bought from RACV in one of their sales while I was buying some door contacts. It's still in its package. I think my reasoning at the time was to update device firmware and native support for Ikea tradfri gear doing a hub to hub wth HE. I'm thinking about flogging it off. Any good reason I should keep it? Anyone else use an ST hub with a HE?
I keep the one I bought second hand for Zigbee firmware updates.

Are there many brand ZigBee devices that can update via ST? I didn't think there were that many really.
I used it to upgrade my Zen Thermostats and for me, that was worth the $50 my ST v2 cost.

I should dig deeper into the firmware update ability and see if any of my devices would benefit.

My ST hub hasn’t been switched on for over a year. When was the Zen firmware update? What version number? I vaguely remember one maybe two years ago…
I can’t recall, one only had mine for ~4 months.
Hi all,
FYI, I have had some luck with the 3 speed fan light switch after a tip from 3A smart home. Simply configure the switch as a Nue Zigbee switch, press the configure button which seemed to update the configuration in the device list and presto.... i had a switch with 4 sub components.
EP01 - Light
EP02 - Fan High
EP03 - Fan Medium
EP04 - Fan Low
Another piece of useful info was the capacitor that comes with the Zigbee switches for fan speed control are a general size that fits most fans. My fans were struggling with low speed and cutting out, so was advised to change the capacitor to the one that cane with the fan. The capacitance values were different and swapping them seems to have fixed the problem.

I’m going to try mine again with our lounge room pedestal fan. I got a Shelly dimmer working with it but removed it as it added a horrid whine noise to the fan.
Hi Nic. Why did you choose that driver in preference to the generic driver? Is it for the presence capability? Do they report power correctly with the custom driver? Have you noticed a difference between this and the generic driver in terms of performance? I ask because I just scored a few of these outlets secondhand on eBay and am yet to set them up, so curious to know what people are experiencing.
hey y'all.
After some wall switches that do power monitoring please. I have 3 aeotec ones but not really happy with them. Would like to avoimd tp link if i can.
