Just buy one. I was in the same boat with ST, it feels great just thinking "screw it".
Lack of time in general, but very excited to re-do some old projects. Central Heating is next on the list, never quite had it 'completely' wife-friendly under ST. Hubitat? It's going to be mint!
Yes they do..
I was asking about the On/Off buttons..
They are now natively supported in ST, so i was wondering if this could be possible in HE too..
(They didn't at first, but now they do)
About the buttons. They're actually not certified for any Zigbee version, rely on inbound group messaging that's not supported by Hubitat. The Hubitat guys are not interested in supporting them, at least as long as they're not certified. They're blaming IKEA, which seems technically correct (but you know, if there's a will, there's a way). From what I understand there's no way to create a custom driver for them either, so they're basically out.
It's a shame since as a user they're the nicest buttons I've seen. I keep mine connected to SmartThings and use HubConnect to get them into Hubitat. Works fine, but is obviously not optimal if you want to migrate off SmartThings.
I see.. I was just puzzled why they could work that good in ST with a official DH, and at same time be an absolute No Go here on HE..
Does anyone know of another small 2-button Zigbee remote to replace my Ikea's..?
I think the Xiaomi Opple comes close, but i don't think "small" is a fair description..
A BIG thank you to all of you who took the time to help me with my questions..!
I have just pushed the "Buy yourself a Hubutat Elevation hub" button based on what i've been reading on this forum.. A lot of nice, fun and helpful people here..
It also seems that the recent Z-Wave problems have been (mostly) solved with the latest firmware updates - would you agree that it would be ok to start moving (Z-Wave) devices from ST to HE at this point?
If there is one thing i hate more than problems with outage on cloud based HA systems, it would be the waiting time for new gadgets to arrive..!!
I wonder what the estimated delivery time to Europe (Denmark) is..
As another person who left ST recently, Ill say it didnt take me too long to replicate almost everything on the HE side. Decided to learn RM instead of setting up WebCore, and its not too hard of a transition once you figure out how it likes to be formatted. That and it seems that there are good community apps that took care of some of my need for WebCore anyway, which is nice having things somewhat built in.
I received my c-7 last week with the new firmware already, and had no issues pairing or keeping alive the z-wave devices. that said i only have a handful of z-wave devices active right now (mostly zigbee in use), and my only issue has been limited z-wave range, which should be resolved this week when i add some more repeaters.
Things will go perfectly for you, all devices will join w/out issue and operate flawlessly, your hair will become thicker and lusher, and everything you eat will taste better. Seriously, it's right there in the C7 EULA.
id start with Hubitat Package Manager and see what you can install from there as it has version control and ability to update easily.
Average All - i have it averaging temperature sensors for each level of my house, garage, and outside.
Hub Watchdog - just to see if there are performance dips after i change something
Simple groups - show single status for all my external doors, open if any are open and closed if all are closed
tile master 2 - can include way more useful info on a dashboard tile if you use the built in dashboards
mode manager - helpful if you make use of modes to control states in your house
ecobee suite manager - if you have ecobee thermostat
i also use HubDuino (ST_anything on ST) to run some esp8266 devices with various sensors.
looking at other apps to add features/ease of use, but the rest ive been able to manage with RM
