My house is 90% Insteon (light switches), 9% z-wave (multi sensors), 1% everything else (Ring, Eufy, off brand stuff.) Indigo does all the automation, with Alexa for voice control (I have separate Insteon and Z-wave hubs for Alexa)
We put in a new addition, and are going to need a dozen light switches. (covered patio, exterior lights, etc.)
I noticed that Insteon switches are about $50 per, Z-wave is about half that ($25), and there are other brands of light switch (TPLink) that are half that ($13/per)
I get the feeling Insteon is long in the tooth, and I worry about it going the way of the dodo. Z-wave is super finicky, and I have reset it once a month or so (to great dismay), and I loathe using SmartThings to have it interface with Alexa.
Does anyone have experience with TPLink wifi light switches and Indigo?
Should I stick with Insteon? Or am I correct in thinking it's not going to last as a platform for much longer?
Any input?
