Hi Jesus.ramos,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply.
Like so many others of your faithful Vera die-hard users/customers, when I heard the news of the discontinuation of the Vera hardware, frankly it sent shivers down my spine. I like many others have probably easily invested close to 100 hours of time configuring, refining, debugging and otherwise cobbling together a combination of core code, lua scripts, plugins and the like into an integrated solution that works well for me. I personally operate 4 Vera controllers at 4 different homes.
It will be a nightmare if everything has to be re-done and reengineered all over again.
Anyhow, I have confidence that your team will make this transition as painless as possible (hope). I realize that it won’t all be there on day1. It seems like we have probably a couple of years at least to work things out.
Regarding item #3 - I see you added a feature request, however I stumbled across a post last evening that seems to suggest that this capability is or will already be there?
Regarding item #1 - On this post “Ezlo Platform FAQ” from January 6th, Sorin stated the following:
“We plan to develop plugins for the Ecobee and Honeywell thermostats, as well as Philips Hue lights.”
I am assuming and hoping that you are referring to the redevelopment of the current Honeywell WiFi Thermostats Plugin as I use this plugin extensively with 2 of my 4 Vera controllers. I am sure there are many users of this popular plugin.
There are many advantages to this plugin which uses the Honeywell API as it doesn’t tie us to using only ZWave capable Honeywell Thermostats.
If this is not the plugin already planned for development, then I will add the feature request as you suggested.
Please, note, I am unable to view the Feature Requests you referenced above. The system advises me that I don’t have permission to review the requests. (Perhaps it’s because I only today created my account on the platform where the feature requests are published.)
Thanks in advance.
Bob
