Anything like this for z wave?

[papreston]

Its for the Lowes Iris system. It didn't have the z-wave logo so I think its iris only like some of the others. Anyway.. Anything like this for z-save? Just need to turn the water on and off.

Thanks

Not at that price point. There are Z-Wave water shutoff valves but they are for your water main. I think the best route for accomplishing this with Vera would be to use a valve that can be actuated by a relay and connect it to a GlobalCache relay or some arduino gizmo.

The Lowe's Orbit Iris Hose Timer (Model 27087) is a Zigbee device. It is therefore not compatible with today's Veras, up to and including Vera 3 and Vera Lite.

Has anyone added on zigbee capability to vera with something like Raspberry Pi with a zigbee dongle?

This little hose end attachment could be quite useful for folks wanting to do a little outdoor project like flower pots or topping off a pool.

Vera's HTML capability screams interoperability.

I could have sworn the Vera team at the last CES were showing a Zigbee controller. I'm hoping it will be available as an add-on for Vera...

I've seen a video of that demo but can't find it at this moment.

I also found this today. Also at Lowes. I haven't done any research on it yet but I wonder if it runs on 12volt or something like that. Plug in a low voltage power supply to a vera controlled switch and away you go. Tie in the wire on the back.

I did some searching and found someone that made a plug in timer...  Check it out, looks interesting.

Yes, and you could easily tie it into the Vera using the Arduino plug-in here http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/board,55.0.html.  There is also a complete site at http://mysensors.org.  Feel free to ask questions but that would be the way to go so to speak!

I was told by a Vera Rep at CES 2014 that Vera would support Zigbee "by the fall of this year." 

(He also said UI7 would be released in April  ).

No new Vera hardware is expected this year, he said.

Lowes Iris also had a room displaying tons of new products like this valve, including dog doors, swimming pool sensors and sensors to measure whether your plants need watering.  All Zigbee, I assume.

Dog Doors? Any more details on that? I'd love to have a doggie door I can remotely lock and unlock.

They had a dog door on display.. and I even saw it recently at a Lowes store (in the Iris display).  There was no Z-Wave logo on the box.  I think that was the idea: to remotely open/lock the doggy door.
