We also had it “lose its mind” a couple of times over the last few months: It just doesn’t work at all until you pull the battery and “reboot” it. All of this seriously undermines the “family acceptance factor” to the point where it’s being called “that darn lock”… Not a good look! /fin

I tested the Shelly LOQED Touch Smart Lock — and the auto-unlock via Bluetooth geofencing actually works as well as advertised. SKG 3-star security, 8mm touch panel, and a local push API for Home Assistant (core since 2023.7). Euro profile only — check your door!

No i stało się. Aqara U200 zaczęła szwankować. Support odesłał do sieci gdzie kupiłem. Jutro pakuje i wysyłam.
Jak tu żyć bez smart zamka?
Klucze i w ogóle…

Nic, chyba upgrade do Switchbota mnie czeka. Teraz już nie tylko twarz, ale i żyły w dłoni sprawdza.
