Actually, the most important question is: when does Athom run out of funding. What is their burnrate and how long can they sustain not going to mass retail? if there's no money coming in, and money flows out, there is an end to that. And then there'…

Somehow the 'normal' backers are quiet. Aren't you guys anxious to get better communication from Athom?

I have pleaded for a weekly update of status some weeks ago. Also, not everybody is reading the forum or willing to read through all topics to gather bits of information. @Emile started a topic a while ago but it hasn't been updated for 10 days now.
-
*bump* Time for an update.
-
It might work... If the Arduino library is there and you are able to hook up an Arduino to your Homey, and use a 2.4 GHz radio to reach the IKEA module. You can already do that with a standalone Arduino that uses the REST-API of the Homey. However, …

@Uranday Doing Scrum does not mean you do 2-3 week sprints. It's the most used timebox, but it's not a rule. At this moment, in the project I'm in, we have 1 week sprints and this works for our project.
-
All that said, I think it is very much time for an update on progress @Emile !
-
@MarcoF Z-Wave devices don't need an app perse, they need a user to RTFM... and set group associations. And yes, that's different dan on Vera of HC2 but not necessarily *BAD*. Calm down .
-
My 2 cents: I understand Athom's approach here. With a Vera we sometimes have to wait MONTHS before a new product is supported. With the Homey EVERY new device should work right away, since it is generic. This is nice in theory but does bring some …
-
Also very nice site for this kind of projects: www.mysensors.org

I wouldn't mind having it now either, helping finding bugs. But I do understand Athom's choice really. They have to be able to cope with it. Adding another 1000 Homey's in the field might overwhelm them. I understand Athom's approach. However, I d…

Click on the 'Z-Wave Command Classes' card in the 'Features we are working on' list. It will tell you thermostat command classes are not supported yet. The flow chart is nice, but I guess it is more stating the ambition than reality at this point i…

Guys, give them some slack. They're obviously working very hard and they are releasing new updates very quickly. Definately continuous delivery at this moment . I'd expect .18 coming out within days.
-
No, this is not supported yet. See: https://trello.com/b/aYBmd9Ru/athom-s-public-timeline-for-homey It should be supported soon I guess.
-
Shall we stay on topic a bit...?
-
@dclrcq Depends on your definition of showstopper . For me, the Z-Wave issues are showstoppers. Fortunately there is an update out now which should solve quite a lot of that. I'm curious how the next coming days will evolve. I must say however tha…
-
Judging the amount of issues coming in at the moment from the GeekBackers I assume it will take another 2-3 weeks at least for the rest of the Backers to get their Homey. Wild guess? Patience is a virtue...
-
Just my 2 cents, but I would rather have guarantee from a supplier and thus buy locally instead of from some Amazon guy.. These prices are around or below wholesale prices.... Dubious IMHO. Dutch: van de vrachtwagen gevallen..?

MarcoF said: Don't dare to say a Java developers is a JS developer, it will probably end in a .... Even more fun: start a debate on wether vi or emacs is the best editor (of course the answer is vi, unless you want carpal tunnel syndr…
-
@Taco but does the device itself (and it's 6 sensors) work? And how about the older 4-in-1 from Aeotec? With the Vera this little thing is quite a pain in the ***... Inclusion into Z-Wave is a hit-and-miss game really. If it works, they are great, b…
-
Good luck Geek Backers, enjoy! Hopefully we will see more pics and vids now!
-
Ad 1: creating flows in Java? Guess not. Homey uses NodeJS, so JavaScript. Entirely different thing.
-
Nice, also shipping address confirmation mail today.
-
First of all: congrats Athom, great! And of course congrats to those lucky Geek Backers, you bastards . But... Apparently Athom made a new decision: first let's see how many support calls we get from the Geek backers before we will send out more un…
-
@tunf You need a thermostat instead of a relay switch because it can do modulation. This will save you quite a lot of gas...
-
My guess is they won't give out anymore estimates .

MarcoF said: Could you turn my Vera3 into a Homey?! Yeah. Did that months ago with my Vera3 .

These will work: http://shop.brighters.nl/schakelaars-n-dimmers/dimmers You can basically use the Z-Wave.me ones, they are fine and work great.
-
I wasn't really meaning precise locations *within* a room. It would be nice if Homey would know in *which* room I am, for instance to switch on lights, or play music there. I still think iBeacons are usable for that... Oh and @MarcoF I prefer to re…
