Highs and Lows

Well that is me done with Fibaro... been testing an alternative solution for a few months now which for obvious reasons I will not promote. But safe to say it absolutely smashes my HC2 x2 and HCL x 3 out of the park!

 

Thanks for the ride everyone and I wish you all the best... right now I am having lots of fun with immense amounts of flexibility and approximately the same stability as the current line of Fibaro units. I will be keeping one controller as they are not selling for a lot just to have a nose at periodically to see if and when the device matches the marketing hype.

 

Thanks again!

@fi-bar-oh

what is the alternative solution? (in youre case)

@fi-bar-oh,

 

Wish you all the best with new HA system (which one?). I will keep mine until it dies and then if in that time Fibaro team doesn't come up with some easy replacement solution then I will definitely check what will be offered on market. 

 

BTW, what is the main reason you are kicking Fibaro out?

Cheers Dean,

 

Hope it all goes well.

I'm very much tempted to make the switch as well. The only thing stopping me is the terrifying GUI.

Sounds too good to be true...stable...working Alexa skill...please, keep us informed!

Still as happy as a pig in *abuse*! Scrapping fibaro motions sensors now aswell as found a great alternative with 7 year battery life and no random 'cannot see controller so i will suck your batteries dry' scenarios!

 

I see you guys finally got android widgets for devices! Nice touch indeed!

Care to share? I don't have issues with my current FIbaro motion sensors, but always interested in what is out there!

Aren't we all searching for the one and only, all-in-one, ready-to-use-out-of-the-box real smart home ?

 

@fi-bar-oh: I really appreciate your experience with your new system...I am a bit dualistic...from day to day my HC2 works better and it feels more comfortable (perhaps because I am learning every day more?) but I also see the time I have to spend solving problems with my HC2, caused by my HC2
