Aqara Hub AND Sonoff at the same time?

[SahnCH (Sahn)]

Hi there!
I have an AH setup with Sonoff ZigBee 3.0 USB - all my devices are integrated with ZHA.
I’m struggling a bit to have a good integration of Aqara wireless switches with ZHA (they don’t get the double press, triple press, long press properly).
I was wondering if I could connect all my Aqara switches through the Aqara hub, and then connect the Aqara Hub with API to HA ?
Would that create issue since there would be several zigbee coordinator or would that be fine ?

I’m really looking for the most simple solution here.

Thanks for your help !

Suggest you instead read and follow these first:

You can have several Zigbee Coordinators/hubs/gatways/bridges to Home Assistant but you can not have several Zigbee Coordinator’s on the same Zigbee network or a device to more than one Zigbee Coordinator/network, so the Zigbee Coordinators/networks will not know about each other. Read the ZHA docs (especially the instruction and limitations sections) → Zigbee Home Automation - Home Assistant
