US Switch Recommendations

Post by rwestergren »

I've purchased both the Aeon Labs DSC18103-ZWUS and the GE 12724 dimmer. Neither of them seem to support sending "unsolicited reports".

Can anyone recommend a basic switch that does? I can't seem to find any.

I would think any Lutron switch since they seem to the ones owning the rather contrived patent: http://community.smartthings.com/t/zwav ... -date/4864
that GE apparently is too cheap to pay for.
EDIT: There is much more about it on this wiki: http://wiki.zwaveeurope.com/index.php?t ... tion_Layer
Best solution is to look for a device that supports the association group, that circumvents the patent by turning a status report in to a command.
Hope it helps!

If bad comes to worse you can always resort to niffling as I did in this post:
