Hey all Just getting started on some smart home stuff - I’m looking to get some strip lighting and there is a lot of stuff out there and honestly I’m not sure what I should get. Ideally it would be RGB but I’m OK with white/warm light.
The ZBT-2 can do both ZigBee and Thread, and I haven’t got any pre-existing devices so I can go either of those.
I thought about getting some IKEA lighting because I believe they use Thread now?
What’s the prevailing wisdom out there?
Just because it has thread support doesn’t mean it will work. Both the hardware and software have to support it. Research it before you buy.
