I wanted to share my positive experience with integrating the KNX binding into OpenHAB. After some initial challenges, I managed to get everything working smoothly! 
For those who might be struggling with device status persistence, here’s a tip: I created a virtual KNX device in OpenHAB to keep track of the statuses. This way, even after a reboot, the system accurately reflects the current state of all my KNX devices. It’s been a game-changer for my smart home setup!
If anyone has questions about setting this up or needs advice, feel free to ask. I’m happy to help!
