Bought to learn about Zigbee,
Bought for learning curve and to connect my first Zigbee device. Has great potential as it gets enhanced and updated. Interfaces nicely with existing Sonoff Wi-Fi devices and allows control. Not essential at present but i dont want to get left behind.

Doesn’t do what it says. What it does do it does poorly.
I primarily purchased this to bridge my Zigbee presence detector devices back to Homeassistant and EWElink app and it doesn’t do that. It will act as a stand alone controller for Zigbee devices. Sonoff devices can be access via a Ewelink plug in (which only works one way). The devices added to the hub cannot be controlled on the ewelink app. It appears to have an fairly open docker plugin so third party apps can be added.It is not simple enough to set up to be called a consumer item and not useful enough for an enthusiast. if your whole home is using zigbee and sonoff then it can be used for control and scenes easier than using Homeassistant but without the huge access to other platforms that homeassistant gives.

O produto funciona muito bem, foi super fácil de instalar, mesmo pra mim que não tenho nenhuma experiência com produtos inteligentes. Pontos fracos: o sistema é todo em inglês, o que pode dificultar o entendimento de certos comandos. Além disso, não funciona no app do celular, ou pelo menos, eu ainda não conseguir fazer com que funcione.

Questo aggeggino sembra caro, ma in fondo non lo è.. collegato dietro firewall per maggiore sicurezza lavora totalmente offline e anche in assenza di rete riesco ad avere la casa con le automazioni domotiche su protocollo zigbee.Inoltre, compatibile con i prodotti della serie Living Now di Bticino, cosa non scontata con altri hub zigbee, oltretutto il suo hub originale non lavora in locale e nella mia rete wifi mesh soffriva di continue disconnessioni.Inoltre, da non sottovalutare la possibilità di avere un server docker (nei limiti tecnici dell’hardware), che all’occorrenza torna utile (e che si integra alla perfezione con homebridge).EDIT: ad un certo punto con uno degli aggiornamenti software ha smesso di funzionare decentemente, dovevo riavviarlo ogni due giorni per poter avere i dispositivi connessi, in pratica perdeva tutta la rete zigbee. Menomale che Amazon ha una rete di assistenza decente..

El equipo es muy interesante, ya que es muy versátil, dado que puedes trabajar con distintas marcas y plataformas desde un único equipo (Ewelink, Smart Life…etc), aunqe no es sencillo de usar, pero en Internet hay tutoriales que ayudan en una primera puesta en marcha o para proyectos.Te permite controlar tus equipos domoticos de forma local, sin necesidad de hacerlo a través de la App y el servidor de los fabricantes.Ha sido una buena compra y me llegó antes de tiempo, gracias a Amazon Prime

Ihost is easy to use when it comes to add devices both Zigbee and Tasmota.It has some issues regarding scenes regarding time delay in Away mode. But I think future updates will address this. Easy to install add-on via docker and then the filebrowser add-on to gain access to system files.

Absolutely love it that this is a no internet required home automation and security device. So many of the other devices talk to a cloud server to turn on/off your local device to upsell you on cloud services or to collect your data. This device just is fully local and controls everything locally.As of right now, it can control zigbee devices and has a section for automation and dashboarding. The device can run docker images and can add functionality; first one they have added is the wifi Sonoff devices interlink.The device is very compact and looks good with the white color. The front led strip reminds me of a disk drive though. It also has a speaker for alarms and notifications. All of the pairing and such buttons are on top; the USB, power and other connectivity are on the back.Setup is easy. Just connect and then go to ihost.local and it will answer.On the other hand, a raspberry pi and USB Zigbee device with Homelab would do the same thing. And, everything is open source. The rebuttal would be that this is Sonoff which makes a lot of Zigbee and other such devices and would have ease of setup to have everything tested and verified by a single entity.There is still quite a bit of development that is penciled in for more features. The current state with Zigbee and a complicated wifi devices is good and complete for most tasks; but some of the more complicated and nuanced usages might be satisfied with the docker images and extensions in the future.
