Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Added increased range to my sensors with a very simple setup on my smartthings hub. Placed one downstairs and one upstairs. The controller is a raspberry pi 4 with a razberry 2 module.

It properly registers all of its neighbors and routes. Both get great range thanks to a few strategically placed aeotec range extender 7 devices. One minoston plug is about 62' away from a range extender and it works reliably, and even repeats the sig...  Read More

This little lifesaver is so worth it. It’s small, unobtrusive and works. Little overpriced for the functions provided.

The performance is nearly instantaneous throughout the entire house for all of my z-wave devices. Works great for z-wave repeaters. Works well with qualifying zwave devices.



Cons

To make this work, you have to depress the action button on the device. When using the smart things app, it’s cranky to connect. I wish i could access more information about the mesh, but it is a simple device.

Only one repeater arrived. The documentation is also bad. Either the description needs to be changed or the right product shipped.

Quality


Quick setup and paired with my universal devices isy with no issues


It works great and was easy to install


I kept having loss of connectivity with some switches and delays in actions completing due to lack of power in the 2nd floor qolsys panel


All of the sudden my battery life in the more distant locks went from about a week to a couple months

Price


So this is a good inexpensive option if you need the signal repeated or extended


Though i wish the 2pack had been available at the time i needed these at 34 each it wasnt that bad to get the repeaters that i needed

Shipping


Item arrived quickly and functioned as expected

Competitiveness


I have a variety of devices that were migrated from lowes iris and now everything is back online thanks to this signal booster


I bought a brand x plug which was advertised to extend the range as well just to discover that its range was very poor worse th...  Read More


The x brand 34tester34 is going back the aeotec stays


If i knew it earlier that honeywell ultrapro outlet came out for much cheaper i would have gone with that route

    We decided a new area wasnt getting hit as hard as wed like devices not quite being able to keep a connection


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Although things are mostly stable now we feel things would be completely stable if we went with another gen 6 unit


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Time will tell though and we will make sure to update if we end up feeling any differently about this


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One in my detached steel garage and one in my attic


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    With no repeaters i had about 75 reliability


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When i added one repeater in my steel garage i got to about 90 reliability


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Prior to adding the repeater to my steel garage the devices in that space were pretty hit and miss


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Especially the battery operated door lock on the garage door but even the hardwired switches would be unreachable sometimes
