Ended up getting 7 ge zwave outlets for $20 a piece since they work so much better than Quirky


you mean 'since they work'.

Still have trippers but not actively using them.


i have maybe 6 unopened and 6 or so around the house i'm using. the last battery swap they've been behaving a bit better but they don't hold a fricking candle to those go-control door sensors. the one in my mailbox is going on 2+ years now and never a battery change. always works. ALWAYS.

zwave has become my go-to wireless radio. frick zigbee.

For those with tapts and outlinks a little light at the end of the tunnel.

After the latest android wink app update (which is muuuuuuch faster now) outlinks and tapts that have been offline for over a year are now back online and controllable!

not sure how or why but i gave up on them and have been treating them as regular device but i was pleasantly surprised to see them back online and working correctly through NO work on my end.

makes me wonder if the ge link bulbs (since they're also zigbee) are better supported now. always known they stay online better paired to hue hub but curious if wink fixed a major zigbee issue or what?
