Title: Driveway Sensors?
Post by: mparadis on October 18, 2016, 09:26:22 pm

Anyone know of any driveway style sensors that are z wave style and work? I'd like a dedicated driveway sensor, as opposed to a motion detector. Thanks!

So there does not appear to be any actual devices for this yet. There is DIY methods. One appears to be using another regular unit to trigger the extra wire leads on some Z-Wave door/window sensors. Guess I was not that original though because someone already has it written up:
