The lock itself is fine. I can do pretty much everything with the zwave once paired. Locking and unlocking are pretty quick and easy. You can setup a few different numbers too (haven’t played with it too much once setup). It has a sensor to detect if the door is open, but it’s pretty slow. Sometimes I can open and close the door before it knows it’s open. More of a door left open sensor.

Our door lock it well aligned, but it’s yours is off I could see it being an issue, but that’s any motorized lock.

Battery life seems pretty good considering we use the lock multiple times a day. Just 4 AA batteries I Believe. It also beeps at you when you lock/unlock before it dies so you have a fair warning.

I have one. You still need the app to setup the lock, which is unfortunate. Once it was setup I just deleted the app.

I do find that they go to sleep fairly often. I changed the temp update setting to the smallest value and it updates fairly regularly. If the temp doesn’t change much I don’t think you get an update.

I know this is an old question, but the Shelly H&T has a USB power cap that you can buy separately. Then use any micro USB cable and power supply. It’s Wi-Fi and not zigbee, and it is definitely a tad more expensive per unit. However, no need to worry about batteries. Shelly does run sales occasionally too.

Yeah, I feel you there, but the opposite (fans already in their own gang) and I use zwave. Maybe I’ll switch those to zigbee. Some day… Some day…

You can check out the inovelli switches. They have zigbee switches coming soon.
