Pros & Cons

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

Pros

Once paired with vera ui7, it shows up as temperature, motion and light sensors. I use it principally for motion detection - to turn on a light in the kitchen when someone walks in. The tilt sensor works perfectly every time, the illumination meter is... Read More

The cr123a battery included in the packaging seems to have given me a good battery life. Remember to use a lithium ion battey for a longer life.

Cons

Nexia's product is garbage. My hope is that they charge their sales commission back to nexia for promoting these flawed devices.

Competitiveness

Just the other week i found out my smartthings hub died so i bought a 3rd gen smartthings hub

It paired easily with my smartthings controller

For those who have battery issues id suggest ignoring the battery percentage values reported by your zwave hub and only bother ... Read More

Moral of the story new smartthings hubs dont seem to have the interplayability that the original hub had
