Perhaps, but nobody on this forum or at Universal devices was able to find point me to it.

Not true. I had the same problem with one of my systems. Went on for months. Only solution was to upgrade my ISY when an upgrade became available. Paul

The speaker can say multiple phrases or recordings of your own voice or other sounds that can be tied to multiple triggers. I'm am stuck on PG2 since one of the node servers I need to move to PG3 and use the yolink Node server hasn't been ported.

I have my yolink speaker sitting next to a google home device. I use it to initiate google broadcasts of various messages throughout my home. I imagine it could do anything a google home voice command can.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one that feels this way. Really liked PG on Raspberry Pi. Reluctantly bought Polisy, but haven't had the courage to move to IoP, even though the node server I'd really like to add only runs on PG3, while at least one that use heavily hasn't been ported from PG2 yet. Thought about Home Assistant in the past and with both of the integrations I'd like to use being available, maybe it's time to take the plunge.

Well it turns out my changes to the switch were coincidental to another issue. Turns out my cottage, in Canada, is part of a nation wide internet outage on Rogers. This home also uses Google home and an ISY. It was the first installation and @Michel Kohanimsuggested I try changing my preferred ISY to current location from it. It worked! Nothing to do with the insteon device change. Thanks @Michel Kohanim!

Been using Google Home with ISY since it became available. A few minor issues in the beginning, but stable for at least 4 years. Today I had to replace an Insteon Switch that had failed. No replacements available so I took a switch that was largely unused out of a 3 way light circuit and used it. The switch that failed had a spoken in google home. I deleted it and replaced it with a new spoken for this replacement switch. When I uploaded to Google home it told me the old switch was deleted and I added this one when it appeared with no room association. Now nothing works. Google home says "Offline" to all my ISY devices. Have tried rebooting the ISY, re-uploading the spokens and deleting this replacement switch in the spokens. No dice. Help! Please. Paul

This might be overkill, but if you have a weatherflow tempest weather station and use the Node server, you get real time access to both LUX and W/m^2.

Hey @Panda88, Thanks for working so hard on this Node server! The yolink stuff is awesome. The LoRa connections are really robust and battery life is so much better than the wireless tags I used previously. I have an outdoor motion in the end of my dock some 400' from my hub and it works great. The latest addition of the speakerhub creates so many interesting possibilities. Have a look at this video where I use it to trip a broadcast on my google home devices triggered by a motion detector on my driveway. Looking forward to other devices they create. Thanks again, Paul Forgive me for hijacking the thread a little. Just wanted you to know you work is greatly appreciated!

12 are outdoors in my lanai and balcony. Just used some of the same fans in minor bedrooms. Never reverse the outdoor ones and 3 speeds are more than enough for us.

I'm using about 15 of the outdoor models form Lowes and they work great with the enbrighten z-wave controller. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XTKQTTV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Numbering and shape make them look like inductors. Dots represent the inductance value. Search inductor color code on Google.

Hi, I have 4 sets of 3 fans in my Lanai (Florida name for Covered Patio). I am looking for Z-wave controllers that can work with groups of 3 identical fans. I have a number of the Enbrighten Fans Controllers, but the say they can only handle 2 fans. Any recommendations? Paul

Did you have any trouble getting it to pair with the ISY. Have mine about 3 feet away and no luck getting it to pair.

High level discussion in first fist link, more in depth in second. https://www.extremetech.com/computing/320247-chip-demand-outstrips-supply-by-30-percent-shortages-could-last-a-year https://semiengineering.com/200mm-demand-surges/

Of course you are both right. This reminds my of the whole VHS vs Beta debate/war. You need a player for both standards. Beta was clearly better from a technical point of view, like Insteon. Problem was that Beta, like Insteon, was a closed environment controlled by a single manufacturer, in this case Sony. Insteon could have set the standard if they had opened it up from the beginning. Now sheer volumes of Z-wave devices drive costs down as do increasing levels of integration in the associated chip set. Maybe folks are right that Smartlabs is on death march with Insteon. Problem is I just put over 100 new switches in a new home and I my system to work for at least a few years until both Insteon and Zwave are history and we've moved on to Blu-Ray vs HD DVD.

Not sure that the lack of devices is any indication that they are considering dropping Insteon. Global supply of chips is low, especially specialty analog chips for the western markets, as manufacturing of them is being pulling out of China. Major players demand is further exacerbating supply for small players like Smart Labs. Even North American auto makers are having to reduce production due to chip shortages. Buying out Insteon would probably not improve supply issues. Paul

@Michel Kohanim Thanks for clarifying the your statement about potentially not supporting Insteon at all.

Wow. Glad I didn't buy one.

Got one of them from amazon to test and it seems to work well. I like the inclusion of brown covers. Makes them less noticeable on my bronze colored doors. WIll see how the battery life is. Many thanks, Paul

@Michel Kohanim So if I have two different programs, say one that runs from sunset to 11 and another that runs from sunset to sunrise, do they get cued in the FIFO randomly or perhaps in the order they were created? Maybe I've missed some documentation on this. Cheers, Paul

I don't use Alexa, but on Google Home I have found that I can add videos to Youtube and get Google home to play them from any device. I have created little home automation instructions for specific guest rooms and have them associated with the room. Maybe you can do the same thing on Alexa to get the audio you want to play.

That looks like a tilt sensor for a garage door. Not sure how you would use it on a regular door. By chance did you mean this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5HB4U5/ref=emc_b_5_i

Hi, I'm looking for a few Z-wave Door Open/Close sensors. They are intended for a couple or porch (Lanai) screen doors and a couple of nearby gates. Would be really nice to find some that are waterproof or at least water resistant. Any recommendations appreciated. Paul
