## Description

......

Review: Amazing Z-wave range and stability on firmware 1.4 onwards - I bought this to upgrade and replace an Aeotec Gen500+ USB stick in a HA Yellow. Migrating a 66 node network in HA JSUI directly, or via nvmedit convert. Immediately updated to v1.4 before restoring a backup. World of difference! The network came back up as it should, and lightning fast. My mesh has now recalculated and has less hops/more direct node connections than before. I'm now running 100% on the Zooz USB stick. I had a disaster with unpingable/dead devices with the GPIO and total success with the USB stick, changing nothing else. I don't have a small z-wave network, but be warned on the performance. I'll be buying another ZST39 as backup and getting rid of the Aeotecs now. The GPIO 'may' be better if you only plan on using it with LR devices, yet untested by me. Use simplicity studio ideally or update with no nodes added, or you risk bricking the device - happened to me with the GPIO module. Check this before you do anything else, start with at least v1.4 before adding nodes as there are many issues in previous versions which this stick likely ships with. Looks like v1.5 of firmware will be released soon, and Silicon Labs claim all transmit lockups are fixed in that versions release notes. I see them rarely now on v1.4 and it's not bad like it was, so doesn't damage damage the mesh/automations reliability
Review: Working Perfeclty with Home Assistant - Upgrading to latest firmware is a little bit long winded using the recommended procedure. Didn't risk doing it through Home Assistant. No problems with connectivity, works great.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it backward compatibility with zwave?**
A: Hi Sujan, yes it is! All Z-Wave is backwards compatible, that's the beauty of the protocol.

**Q: Will this work with Raspberry Pi 4 running OpenHab?**
A: Other users have confirmed the S2 Stick works fine in that set up.

**Q: Can i use this as a repeater in a powered usb port?**
A: All USB ports are powered though some do not support data. The device is a USB Type A stick that adds a Z-Wave radio to a computer. It's intended to be the master controller for a Z-Wave network. That's how I'm using it. I think there is a way to set one as the master with 2 on a network but don't know how to do that.

**Q: Does this product work with zigbee**
A: No, this is a dedicated Z-Wave USB Stick only.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great with Home Assistant
*by B***T on 18 June 2024*

I've downloaded files from Zooz website, updated the firmware to latest via Home Assistant GUI. I did not need Windows PC. It works great with Home Assistant. Range is good, no interference issues with a USB extender cable.
