    Is this worth attention? Knowing Cygnett, it's some (semi-)generic, cheap gear.

    Does anyone know what's the mysterious "Smart IR Blaster" advertised with a half-smartphone, half-wifi glyph in the picture?

    These were $40? From Harvey Norman recently, I’m using this alongside some door sensors, not terrible tbh main issue is HomeKit losing them which is a HomeKit problem as the sensors are still on the cygnett app

      My bad, I thought it was $40, looks like I paid $90!!

    What a joke!
    Specs do not even state if these are Zigbee, RF or something else. Will they all be landfill when their server shuts down?
    Compatible with any other systems?

    See this post from last year:

    Better to get Amazon Echo. That seems to be the future. Smart-things hub looked good, but has been killed.

    • tyme on 10/04/2021 - 21:36

      They apparently use Zigbee but aren't listed on https://zigbee.blakadder.com/ so not really a confident buy even if you were going to throw away the gateway.

      As for the Echo, that's still a device you don't have full control over that functions based on WIFI and their proprietary apps.
      If you want an actual "hub" that's not going to become landfill when support is dropped, consider any of the dozens of Zigbee adapters that function offline without a reliance on a company's app.

      • bargaino on 10/04/2021 - 21:49

        The Echo (not Dot) now has a built-in Zigbee hub, as did the earlier Echo Plus.

        I use a Hue hub for my lights, have been playing with a Smartthing hub, and really should learn Home Assistant :)

        • tyme on 11/04/2021 - 08:42

          I know Echo has Zigbee built-in and I think it has a good value proposition for people getting into Smart Home stuff.
          Just if you're concerned about services going down, as big as Amazon is there's always the chance your Echo will be sunset one day.
          Brands as big as Philips have sunset their older hubs and Sonos were going to drop support for their older smart speaker too.

          The good news is if you invest in Zigbee hardware if that ever happened you could just reset those devices and pair to your new Zigbee hub.

  • C0mbat on 10/04/2021 - 20:45

    I was looking at this the other day as I'm really interested to know how good these are for turning on heaters and air conditioning units based on temperature. Anyone got one for that purpose?

    10000% do NOT recommend this kit.. Stand alone stuff like their Smart plugs work fine - but anything connecting to this hub is just unbelievably un-reliable! Also its terrible as an A/C remote (when it actually works). Also I got mine for $89 at Big W

  • Goliathus on 10/04/2021 - 22:42

    This is garbage, half of them didn't function with Google assistant, ones that did had way less functionality compared to other smart devices. Save you're money.

  • sumukh on 10/04/2021 - 23:05

    Had bought this for about $89 using the good guys deal mainly for the sensors. Connected to home assistant via home kit integration.

    They work OK for most part, though the smart button has some delays. Not yet tried connecting directly to HA with a zigbee adapter, if I can get that working then the speed issue should be resolved.

    Also that good guys had the individual sensors on sale for $19 each, so good use of the concierge credit.
