New User living in Ireland

Hi,

I have only 2 moths ago started using Shelly products in combination with Home Asistant. I started off with two Shelly Duo and a Shelly 1L, Now I have almost all lights as Duo or RGBW and a few other Shelly devices. I was really happy to see how easy the integration with HA works. I was aiming to use only devices and integrations that do not require a cloud base service, I dislike the idea of "sharing" my life with a corporation. So far I only have WiFi issues with the Motion 2 but otherwise I am happy. One suggestion I would have to Shelly, go away from those aweful spring type screw terminals used on the Shelly relays, they are bad to work with. A propper cage type terminal would be much better. If it makes the product a euro more expensive, fine by me.

About me, I am German living in Ireland for the last 20 years, rarely ever speak german and never write german so I am better off in the English section here. I work as Network Engineer for an ISP at the south-west coast of County Cork.

Greeting from Ireland

Jan P.
