Post by: Frozen on January 14, 2017, 01:09:18 am
Just curious if either of these would work with the Almond+?

I just installed a Garage door opener from the same company and it works great:

I have a variety of Z-Wave devices that are from them and all have worked well. That being said this would likely need work from Securifi. Since it can control 15(!) valves independently, they would need to be able to recognize it and have it show those 15 valves on the UIs.

Pretty impressive for $100 though. This seems like a new product from them.

The thermostat seems like it would be more standard and there is already support for some thermostats (if not this specific one).

I've been looking for compatible irrigation controllers as well, and this looks like a great device. I wonder if it would be possible for Securifi to create a single UI type that can contain a variable number of relays (switches). This controller could present as one device, with 15 different toggles in the device's UI item.

I've also run across a pool filter controller by Intermatic (couldn't find the link) that has 3 Z-Wave relays; it could use this same proposed interface.

I have not purchased any of these, expecting that they aren't compatible yet.
