alanchow Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Hi guys, As we develop more and more drivers for IoT devices it has become apparant that you can now integrate alot of sub systems using off the shelf budget concious parts. I thought i would throw this thread up for those who want the bells and whistles without the cost associated. Note product pricing is at the time of writing this. This is only a small selection of the drivers we develop. Marking my favorites with Alan's Pick. Feel free to add to the thread (doesn't have to be our drivers).

Crustyloafer Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Thanks for this Alan, don't suppose you know your tplink driver will work with the UK HS110 model too? https://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-Required-Control-Devices-Anywhere/dp/B07GWWRK1C/ref=sr_1_5?crid=4SLDRDQZGWN8&keywords=tp%2Blink%2Bsmart%2Bplug&qid=1562653415&s=gateway&sprefix=tp%2Blink%2Bsmart%2B%2Caps%2C139&sr=8-5&th=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveC4 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Any locks that might look good on my front door other than the Baldwin? I don’t want a keypad - but I want a deadbolt I can lock/unlock. I want a good looking door handle. Do I find something Z-Wave and try to integrate that way? This needs to be easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you looked at the August locks? Would preserve the outdoor appearance of your current lock with no need to change the handle (assuming your handle and deadbolt are separate) and there's a C4 driver for them. msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm considering just going with a Schalge Z-Wave deadbolt for one of my doors since i don't want to drop the outrageous amount of money for another Yale Assure with the C4 Zigbee module.

Rbeard Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 @alanchow I have the TP Link driver and a HS200 in wall switch. After getting the driver installed and verified, the switch will turn the light on, but not turn it off via composer. It will not take any commands via the Control4 app. Any thoughts?

May not be the best for a very exposed front door, but doesn't look bad at all for garage entry/side doors. Functionality is excellent.

Shivam Paw Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I have yeelight led strip and smart bulb at home and use Alan’s driver and it works amazing. No drop offs in the last year so for some fairly cheap kit it works very well msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As such we send the values in Celcius but round it up to the nearest whole degree. With Fahrenheit this may jump up in steps of 2 degrees.

Rbeard Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 I know the driver states it "may work" with other switches, but can anyone clarify if it will work with the TP Link HS210 3 Way Kit?

PTZ also doesn't work great with this driver at the moment if that is something you require. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
