As we’re trending, I thought I’d lean into it and see what everyone is using.

    I think this covers the basics.

    • Home assistant running under proxmox on an ancient hp micro server
    • ZZH zigbee gateway stick
    • Xiaomi/Aqara light switches, with one more switch than circuit going to switch to act as a button for lamps
    • Ikea
      • Bulbs for lamps
      • undercounter strips with zigbee for office mood lights
    • Nest hubs for music + 4 room house amp system
    • Tado for heating

        It’s the one I use, I would recommend a ZZH-P if they ever get released! Failing that I have heard good things about the sonoff stick.

          There’s two Sonoff sticks on Amazon both look identical but they have different specs:

          ZBDongle-P:

          • USB 3.0
          • Pre-flashed with Z-Stack 3.x.0 coordinator firmware
          • Base on TI CC2652P + CP2102N

          ZBDongle-E:

          • USB
          • Pre-flashed with Zigbee coordinator firmware based on EZNet 6.10.3 out of box
          • Base on EFR32MG21 + CH9102F

          The first seems the right one but they’re even.yhe same price!

              So doing some homework I found this, which suggests:

              • ZBDongle-P - Zigbee2MQTT and ZHA
              • ZBDongle-E - Matter and ZHA, Zigbee2MQTT still experimental

              Apparently, the former is the Dongle Plus, while the latter is the Dongle Plus V2. So, despite the letters, the -E is the newer one.

              All of which means, the -E seems the best option for me.

              Thanks for that - they do include both E and P under discovery section it that does indeed seems to be their preference.

          I have problems finding any information at all about this, could you link a website to see what it is and the current status?

            Not sure if zzh is on sale at the moment, what are you trying to achieve?

              Just trying find a webpage with information, I can only find a page for zzh CC2652R and only a GitHub issue about the zzh-p which is apparently CC2652P? You seem to follow the release progress, so where could I read about it?
