What do you use, Shelly, Tuya, Sonoff ...?

[Fatman (Gerard Appelman)]

Hey all.

I am running 4 installations of HA and all goes … well, ok.

I got quite used to using Sonoff and Tuya stuff. I’m having trouble with Tuya support in HA so it’s time to up my game.

Which are the best devices to integrate into HA, please?

I recently bought Switchbot and Roborock devices and they seem to be working great.

Let me know what you think please.

Hello Gerard Appelman,

Tuya Zigbee using ZHA or Z2M is OK. Tuya WIFI is crap.
Most of my sonoffs are older and converted to Tasmota or espHome. (Much Tinkering fun here)
I’ve never owned a Shelly so no opinion, but I think you can flash those as well.

Thanks for your reply kind Sir. Tell me about this ZHA Z2M please that sounds interesting seeing as I’m using way over 100 Tuya pieces. I’m now battling with Tuya products being (unsupported)!

Here is probably everything you ever wanted to know and more about Zigbee.

I have a ton of Shellys using WiFi and Bluetooth with stock firmware. I have a couple of Sonoffs running ESPHome (WiFi). Many years and zero failures.
