While it is said Athom doesn’t read the forum, I think its a good place to see if there is interest for such version. Perhaps add the country/region this 916mhz is for so others who do not know it applies to them too can chip in.

it’s easy, just remove the z-wave chip and replace it with the one for 916MHz, and update all the z-wave apps with the local device ID’s, that’s all.

Homey is available around the world, however the Pro is only available with in the EU frequency.

I’ve heard (not confirmed) that if you order of 300+ Homey Pros you can get your order in any frequency you like.

Hi JPe4619  
Will this solution actually work?  
Is there a specific 916mhz Z-Wave chip you suggest using?

Unless you can flash the zwave chip with homey’s credentials etc, not very likely you are able to do that your self.  
Also not very likely you will get those credentials from athom in the first place.

Thank you. I had a feeling it’s more complicated than just changing a chip.
