Cross-post from r/homeassistant. I am OP.
I’m currently facing issues with my aging HAI OmniPro II automation system, which is entirely hardwired and is on the fritz. I have a robust wiring setup covering every window and door and numerous hardwired sensors, from motion and glass breaks to water and proximity sensors.
I’m at a crossroads and am considering whether it’s better to stick with my existing infrastructure with a new hardwired system, switch to a wireless security system, or piece together my security through my HA setup. While wireless systems offer convenience, I’m concerned about maintaining the reliability and security of my setup. While converting everything to wireless devices is in the cards, I don’t want to do that unnecessarily.
Additionally, I need to figure out how to power and monitor my smoke detectors.
Of course, all of this needs to fall under the “Works with Home Assistant” requirement.
I would be grateful to any of you who could weigh in with any guidance on either direction. Thanks in advance for your help!
