Good product at a good price but somewhat disappointing build

Basically it seems a good product once you start using it. Build quality seems good and it's been working reliably for a week or so. However, the installation was a big problem. I'm pretty good at IT and home automation, networking (I'm an IT pro), running my own HomeBridge server, etc. I'm just saying this to set a baseline when I say adding this thing to my HomeKit home was a nightmare. . I followed T's instructions and it took about another hour before it finally showed up. everything while the installation process was still showing an error. I'm scratching my head as to why it suddenly worked, but hey, it works. I just hope I never have to add it to another HomeKit setup in the future. So 5 stars minus 1 for the crappy setup experience.

Pros
