Zwave device recommendation

[jlamb]

Any recommendation for zwave devices that would work in a 4 way switch setup?  Had a switchlinc that died in that setup where I had 3 switchlincs controlling a single light.  Looking at replacing all three of those switches and keeping the two working as spares for others I have.  Looking for devices that would communicate with each other (a local association similar to Insteon) and also could be seen by IoP through zooz zwave stick.

Take a look at the Aeotec switch:  Z-Wave light dimmer switch, illumino Dimmer Switch ‐ Aeotec

If you have any questions their support team is very responsive.

I like this dimmer and it says you can make an Insteon style (scene) 3+ way circuit within switches which I’ve always loved in Insteon dimmers. I’ll read more about that feature and how new IoP fw release may be exposing access to it.

I’ve been following aotec for a few years but issue was they never released some devices they announced, always out of stock or couldn’t get them in the US (eg garage door controller). I like their technology but above made me suspect long term viability. Are you a heavy user of their products and comfortable with the company?

I use their Multisensor 6 and Smart Switches.  I've had only positive results with their devices and support.  Their devices are end user firmware upgradeable which I think is a big plus.

They're slowly upgrading their inventory to the series 7 chipset.
