Thank you for the thought out statement. I have been a bit in both camps for years with my own house. (But now that I am selling it and moving into a fifth wheel I would like to bring part of that automation with me.)
Obviously there will be differences, as most of the automation will revolve around 12VDC devices vs 120VAC devices.
I will have relatively low latency internet available most places I go (I do have Starlink for the fifth wheel) as well as backup of cellular internet.
Just pondering if the eISY is a good platform for this. I have seen a lot of people that use Home Assistant for this type of automation, and I really do not want to give up the great platform that I have with UDI.
