Gvzdus Posted October 7, 2024 Posted October 7, 2024 1) Shelly (BLU) TRV should get its own category 2) Got it today! And a Shelly BLU Gen3 Gateway was included. That raises the question: Did you want to prevent people from people being unhappy to unpack their BLU TRV and having forgotten that an GEN3 Shelly is necessary as gateway? Or does the Shelly BLU TRV always require the specific GEN3 Gateway? 3) If the GEN3 Gateway is required: How many Shelly BLU TRV might it serve in parallel? Or does each BLU TRV require one gateway?

We would experiment and try to add some kind of lighter support for other Gen3 devices to support it in the future, but that is pending testing.

Why calling it Blu but other Blu-Gateways in the Plus and Pro series don't work? I already have like 10+ Gateways for Blu sensors, all integrated in Home Assistant as well. But if I'm not able to add TRV why would I buy one? I don't want to add additional gen3 gateways because I already have 10+ Bluetooth gateways around. Also one gateway for (up to) 5 TRVs sounds like a lot connection issues are around the corner. 1 Quote Translate Revert translation?
