wich controller ?

Post by mururoa »

Hi there,
I want add some zigbee devices to my Domoticz installation.
So far I use only RFXCom.
So I looked @ Zigbree controllers in order to user Zigbee devices.
But I cant manage to choose between :
- Zigate
- Conbee II
- Zigbee2MQTT
and more than that I wonder if I should just use the Tradfri Gateway wich is quite cheap and still use any Zigbee device like a bulb or temp sensor or anything else.

I really like z2mqtt. So far, it had been a great switch from the IKEA hub and moroen plugin to z2mqtt. More functionality and better control despite the great work from moroen (the hub really limits access). I use a zzh stick and start to prefer zigbee over zwave.

The tradfri Gateway support realy less device than the "multi brand" gateways.
But to help you to choose the one you prefer, I think it s better for you to search on google, all thoses 3 are realy different, they are not just similar usb key.
