ConBee II - Universal Zigbee 3.0 USB Gateway, incl. deCONZ & Phoscon App, Home Automation (Black)

Nice, small, works perfectly

update March 10 2024 - i am really quite happy because it does not ever cause problems, it just works. have used it every day since Jan 23rd 2022. original review June 17 2022 - here is some example python code to control zigbee devices via the conbee II deconz rest api - but first run the conbee II instlaller it will install the deconz app/service and the phoscon app import requests, pprint # ***** you must have the deconz app or service running for this to work ****** # - on windows: from start menu run the deCONZ app - it defaults to port 80 # - on pi from cmd line w/ ui: > /usr/bin/deCONZ --http-port=8008 runThis = 0 windows = 0 portWin = '80' portPi = '8008' if windows == 1: ipAddr = 'http : // <ip address here>:' + portWin key = 'A0xxxxxxEE' outlet1 = '1' else: ipAddr = 'http : // <ip address here>:' + portPi key = '7ExxxxxxA2' outlet1 = '1' if (runThis == 0): # ---------------- get api key # # 1) start the 'phoscon app' from the 'deconz app' ui # # 2) enable 'authenticate app' in 'phoscon app'-gateway-advanced # # 3) set runThisApi = 0 and run the code and you will receive an api key payload = {"devicetype": "my application"} r = requests.post(ipAddr+'/api/', json=payload) # [{'success': {'username': '4E2BA46CB6'}}] if (runThis == 1): # ---------------- turn socket on payload = {"on": True} r = requests.put(ipAddr+'/api/'+key+'/lights/'+outlet1+'/state', json=payload) if (runThis == 2): # ---------------- turn socket off payload = {"on": False} r = requests.put(ipAddr+'/api/'+key+'/lights/'+outlet1+'/state', json=payload) if (runThis == 3): # ---------------- light state r = requests.get(ipAddr+'/api/'+key+'/lights') pprint.pprint(r) pprint.pprint(r.json())

Integrates well with ZHA + home assistant in raspberry PI

Had this for a while, but only recently got around to setting it up with my Domoticz HA. Deconz (the software from the manufacturer) is easy to get and install. It just worked for me. Got to the companion 'web app' that is installed with it, click to add a sensor, press the button on the do-hickie, and off you go! Much better than I expected and they have support for a lot of gadgets in there. I've only added the aquaria stuff so far, but that was failed to add back into my aquaria hub for some reason, and this just detected them. Too a couple goes to pair some stuff, but I belive that is fairly normal. Seems like a good product.

Fonctionne sans problème avec Ubuntu server et Docker. J'ai passé en passthrough depuis Proxmox à une VMs de Ubuntu, tout a été détecté sans installation. Fonctionne bien avec home-assistant. Les connections avec les appareil Zigbee ont été très rapide. pratiquement aucune configuration à faire.
