Hello fellow smart home enthusiasts! I’ve been diving into the world of Zigbee smart lighting lately, and I wanted to share some of my experiences and tips for anyone looking to set up or improve their smart lighting systems. 
First off, I’ve been experimenting with the EcoDim Duo dimmer, which has been a fantastic addition to my setup. It’s been great to see how smoothly it integrates with my Zigbee network and Homey. However, I’ve noticed that sometimes the device doesn’t show up in the list of available devices. If anyone has insights on when this might be resolved or any workarounds, I’d love to hear them! 
On the automation front, I’ve been working on creating a simple yet effective scene where my hallway lights dim automatically when I’m away but brighten up as I approach. This uses motion sensors and a simple rule in OpenHAB. It’s been surprisingly effective and has made my evenings much more convenient. I’d love to hear how others are automating their lighting setups! 
Another thing I’ve been exploring is the use of CalDAV for scheduling smart home tasks. It’s been a bit of a learning curve, but I’ve managed to set up a basic system where my lights and HVAC adjust based on my calendar events. If anyone has tips or common pitfalls to avoid when setting this up, please share! 
Lastly, I’ve been curious about integrating different brands of smart devices. For instance, I have both Z-Wave and Zigbee devices, and I’d love to hear how others manage compatibility and ensure seamless communication between them. Any tricks or tools that have worked well for you would be invaluable! 
Let’s keep the conversation flowing and help each other make our smart homes even smarter!
