Maybe can try set automation in tuya app and set it up as scenes in homekit thru homebridge. Not the best choice but looks like doable

This one uses network control... but this network quite jialat dry.gif this sigmesh... not very reliable. sometimes detect sometimes don't detect.

Using this then can control, but its via cloud. If I control from tuya app, then its local.

I think the one on the zemismart “works with homekit’ page is a smoke detector.. their zigbee siren doesnt seem to be listed in the works with homekit page

Ah right,I had one look and I thought it was siren
At least now can know which device type really works with homekit hub

So it's not really working well with sigmesh
Are the retouch gu10 price around rm50 each? That's even more expensive than zigbee/wifi version

Any idea what's the chip inside? maybe can do chip swap and install homekit firmware. Assuming the cable inside is long enough you can pull the pcb like this

Anyone feels like they’ve done all that they can with their smart home system? I kinda feel that way for now. Nothing much i want to add already. Covered most bases
Lighting, fans, vacuum, Tv, aircon, sockets, door locks, gate, cctv cameras, alarm, sensors (motion/contact/temperature/leak)..

Waiting for something new (besides upgrading to matter) to add on to my house.

Any recommendations?

remaining probably mmwave sensors
either the expensive one like fp2 with multizone or just cheaper ones by tuya (make sure no fans in the area)

direct ble control seems complicated, involve some sniffing BT commands, then there's tuya's own bt protocol

Dang... I checked again...

"local_key": "",

Seems like if BLE even through a hub can't get the local key sigh. (https://www.reddit.com/r/homebridge/comments/pkjwnr/tuya_lights_with_sig_mesh_gateway_have_no_local/)

Is it the same for Tuya Zigbee products? Only those with wi-fi able to get local key?

Like coverage test?
Might need to add zigbee repeaters if too far way from hub

For wifi devices, just more mesh wifi around the house
