One thing I still can't believe hasn't been done yet is a peephole door cam that doesn't alter the exterior appearance of the door. I doubt I'm alone in this, as it seems many condos do not allow any modification to the exterior appearance of a door, which immediately means the Ring Peephole Cam is out. If Ring or someone made a very similar device which looked just like a normal peephole from the outside, MANY would likely buy one.

Bring on the PoE-powered devices! As a by-product of recent home renos, I've got a lot of new ethernet outlets connected to my LAN's new PoE switch and will be looking for a number of options for using them (in addition to the outdoor security cams added this summer). The new Aqara hub (and its Homey counterpart) are candidates for one of my kitchen PoE outlets (I'll be looking at options for a wall-mounted dashboard for a second outlet there), though I'll want to hear how well Aqara "plays with" the rest of the combined Smarthings- Hubitat-Aqara ecosystem I'm more or less committed to (and especially with the dashboard I'm working towards).

Unfortunately, I have not had much luck using zigbee stuff with Amazon devices. I have two different devices (neither is the hub in your video) that I have paired zigbee contact sensors with only to have the devices "disappear" in a month or so. Hopefully, the "Hub" will do better. But I am assuming the guts (read zigbee radio) of the thing will be the same as what I have now.

@AutomateYourLife 3 ай бұрын

An interesting set of products, but how many of them can be controlled when (not if) your Internet goes down? So many devices simply stop working while your internet is down, and while this is unacceptable to many of us, that doesn't seem to have filtered down to the companies making these devices. Do they not realise that their market would be bigger if they supported local control, rather than being locked into their proprietary cloud infrastructure. Since one of the biggest problems with smart home devices is finding out whether they support local control, it would be really good if videos like this mentioned whether they did or not. Keep up the good work.

@AutomateYourLife 2 ай бұрын

I think lots of these will be just fine! I get the request to know if they are or not, but it's just too early to be sure with most of these. :)

Thanks @@AutomateYourLife, and I know that I, and others, probably sound a broken records, but until more manufacturers start being up front about their products connectivity needs, it's a question we will have to keep asking. It great to see matter mentioned with respect to so many of these products, but we've yet to see how many manufacturers will open up their full API to local control. I suspect at least some will try to hide 'premium' functionality behind a cloud service paywall, and we have to be ready to push back against that.

Since I've seen the material related to the U300, and have the U100, I made a comparison. Type of lock doesn't necessarily change the whole install process. We sometimes have access to material beyond what the public gets to see, and get to have discussions with the vendor directly. :)
