“This is a great product if you have the time to spend learning how to attach all your smart gadgets. I have had the system for a week now and am slowly building my system. Make sure you create backups before you add a new item. Pimoroni provided a fast delivery service I wish the device set up was as simple to navigate as the service provided by Pimoroni.”
“It was very easy to get started with Home Assistant Green and am getting into it now! I would have found it difficult to start from a raw raspberrypi so this was great as it was plug and play. Only thing I would recommend putting the numeric ip address on the instructions http://192.168.1.24:8123 as well as "homeassistant.local:8123" as that didn't work for me until I used the numeric one. Also selecting Ireland in the config wizard didn't work. But over all very easy to get up and running.”
“With no previous HA experience, I had this up and running in a couple of hours. Hue lights, ZigBee sensors, plugs, etc. all added. The only time I needed documentation was to add HA as an accessory to Apple's HomeKit, as I couln't locate the QR code. That found, my HA devices are now available on HomeKit. Overall a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.”
