Seeking Recommendations for Local Z-Wave Buttons

Hello everyone! I’ve been diving into the world of smart home automation and have been really impressed with how Z-Wave devices can enhance daily life. I’m currently on the hunt for a reliable Z-Wave button that operates locally, without needing cloud integration. I’ve come across some older lists, but unfortunately, many of the products mentioned aren’t available anymore.

I’m looking for something simple—a single button would suffice, though I wouldn’t mind having more if it comes with the package. The key here is local execution, so I believe the Aeotec line might not be the right fit for my needs. I’ve heard mixed things about whether changing the device type to generic Z-Wave could work, so I’m open to suggestions on that front as well.

In my home, I’ve been experimenting with setting up a home theater system where a Z-Wave button could be used to trigger a series of actions, like dimming the lights and lowering the shades. It would be fantastic to find a button that’s both reliable and easy to integrate into my existing setup.

If anyone has any recommendations or personal experiences with such devices, I’d be thrilled to hear about them! Whether it’s a product you’ve had great success with or a workaround you’ve discovered, your insights would be invaluable. Thanks in advance for your help—I’m really excited to see what the community suggests!
