  • jjtbsomhorst said: Hi, I have a small question about the door/window sensor. I have attached it to the front door and seemed to work for a bit bit but for a couple of hours now the sensor is reporting a contact alarm but the door is closed.  …
  • For what it is worth, I noticed that deactivating several flows had quite some influence on my average load. I have a hole bunch of variant flows for my screens. Different ones for different periods through the year. Since we are in fall and winter…
  • danone said: Wow! That is bad, even if the whole story finished well, it is bad. What an irony, a device that supposed to help you know when there is a fire... ended up on fire caused by itself. (well, by its batteries) My company imports from …
  • mruiter said: Every Z-Wave battery powered device is a mini bomb. They dont go off that often but any small surface damage can make the package weak. Even a tiny scratch will let air in the package eventually causing a chain reaction. Did you …
  • zshf said: Had similar issue few days ago when my daughters battery powered (regular AA 1.5v) decorative light went bananas. Same thing there, it was a small "bang", hissing noise and some kind of fluid coming out of one of the batteries. No f…
  • Rocodamelshe said: But to be honost: It's all about ALL battery powered devices. Not just the Z-wave devices aye? As from what I understand at this time, not all battery powered devices only the ones that use Lithium Ion or LiPo. I have…
  • mruiter said: Dont forget you are using small miniture bombs as power for the devices. The package did exactly what it was designed to do and tested for. It containt the explosion from the battery and kept the fire containt. So mission well do…
  • I have just checked and your app has been updated. I had to add all 4 yeelights again as expected. The process itself seems to work a lot smoother. Unfortunately there seems to be some kind of bug when homey is asked to add new device; it keeps sayi…
  • I have 4 Yeelights working nicely with the current driver app. When the update hits I will let you know.
  • Not a real big deal, but did someone ever found an answer for the 3rd question? >>3. Add more icons than the default icons. For example: washing machine, computer, toys, garage, car, etc.<<
  • lubbertkramer said: Zones is already working just like in your Homey, you need to press the door next to the search at your devices tap to switch rooms You are correct. The door icon looks dimmed; probably overlooked it. Th…
  • For an alpha version it works quite nice, I had it only crash once  The sequence of all devices is a big secret to me... The grouping per room is not (yet) there. Switching on a alarm siren worked perfect; switching off didn't... Fortunately the …
  • caseda said: You can't put 2 trigger cards in the if column, even when they are the same. There is now a trigger (in the "devices" card) card which has a card called "alarm triggered", and you then can select a zone and alarm type Altho…
  • Peet91 said: Ik heb in totaal twee gordijnrails hangen van Forest met een z-wave interface. Het is een investering maar tot op heden nog geen moment spijt van gehad. Gordijnen gaan fluisterstil dicht en de intergratie met Homey werkt goed. Ik b…
  • lubbertkramer said: From the menu drag devices/apparaten to the IF and you can flip through the multiple trigger cards.  Modbreak: Merged above question with existing topic Why doesn't this work with me? I select 2 (the same…
  • ingmar said: Eternity said: What I have learned is add permanent powered devices first while keeping your homey at its base location. That is not possible... To include a mains powered z-wave device, I have to have Homey with…
  • mruiter said: z-wave is having a nasty bug issue in homey 1.5.x series.  a group of devices can not be controlled anymore but do report in power usages for example. A pull the plug can help when the state of the plugs or dimmers hang. or when y…
  • luisfpinto said: Hey I don't know if you are still looking for an app that controls Yeelight but maybe, this could work:  Yeti: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netbeast.yeti https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/yeti-smart-home/id1…
  • JBenjamins said: Is it just me, or would it make sense to keep trying until no error 'TRANSMIT_COMPLETE_NO_ACK' has been received? What is especially worrying is that the status of the device is not in sync with reality - I thought z-wave woul…
  • @bvdbos @Lurendrejer Thanks I'm going to test!
  • Ik denk dat je @JasperB verkeerd hebt begrepen, althans als het net zoals Fibaro werkt Er moet continu stroom op je inbouwschakelaar staan. Via de schakeldraden van je schakelaar naar je inbouwschakelaar kan deze de lamp aan en uit zetten. Dus zow…
  • PieDjee said: Hi, just got my first neo coolcam pir. I want to make the following flow IF movement AND light below AND time between 23:00 - 7:00 THEN turn on light on lowest dimlevel. However, I can't seem to find a threshold for light l…
  • TedTolboom said: @Lurendrejer the forum has options to add a comment with more than 6 words  @Leeuw1960 it enables that within Homey you can configure that a motion sensor is directly switching on a lamp upon movement without having to setup…
  • Mathijs said: Is there any reason the 24 and 25 devices won't respond to commands?  They work if I move them in the same room as the Homey. Mod break: moved question to Neo app main discussion topic In my personal experience: distanc…
  • Rocodamelshe said: Eternity said: Ik had (...) veel meer lussen bij de koude bronnen (deuren en ramen) moeten laten aanleggen! En daar zijn dus de berekeningen en tekeningen voor! In principe heb je gelijk. Echter, …

  • To my knowledge there are no z-wave smart plugs available for UK power sockets. I would suggest make your life easy and order the NEO-EU plugs. Used together with the changer below you have a great cost effective solution: https://www.wordans.nl/adv…
  • OetAelse said: This is why I disabled auto update, apps included. Experienced just before my holiday issues with BetterLogic messing up lots of my flows. Solid policy! I have this disabled myself for system updates. When a new version co…
  • dr.jake said: WtF ?? after the auto update to 1.51 all my devices/sensors(about 76) in every room are GONE !! I don't have time now for this . Going on vacation and homey should have been my guard dog !!! Huh...? Very strange.... …
  • ingmar said: Hi, great update but since I am on 1.5.1. I have huge delays with flows being executed. Walking into a room with a fibaro (or aeotec) motion sensor normally switches light on instantly, now it takes about 10-20 seconds. On the app …
