Is it worth to migrate to Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 from Aeotec Z-Stick S2 ?

Post by tohn »

Will a migrate to Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 from Aeotec Z-Stick S2 give any benefit when mixed Zwave versions (Std and Plus) environment ?

Have one RPi 3 with Aeotec Z-Stick S2 and now I have bought a new RPi3 and a Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5.

My thought was to make a Z-Wave Plus only network and keep my "old" zwave devices on the Aeotec Z-Stick S2 RPi3.
When I configured and tested the shared devices in Domoticz isn't was not what I hade hoped.

So , is it worth the jobb to exclude all Z-wave devices from the Aeontec Z-Stick S2 and include them on the new Aoetec Z-Stick Gen5 ?
Will not get the benefits from the Zwave Plus standard, but I cant defend to exchange functional "old" z-wave devices with Plus standard evalents..

Have anyone done a configuration with 2 Domoticz enviroments to get a Zwave Plus and Zwave "old" networks to get benefits from both worlds ?

The S2 stick also supports Zwave+ so why replace it?

What I know, so does not Aeotec Z-Stick S2 have the Zwave Plus chipset, so that's why I want to replace it..
Or I'm wrong ?
