Thanks for the nice article!

There are some remarks to be made, though:

- The “15 device limit” doesn’t apply to the Homey Pro 2023, only the older Homey Pro’s. The new hardware has a higher limit, either 32 or 64 depending on which firmware Athom is using. I know you explain this towards the end of the article, but that’s not until you already elaborated on how to build a network and that 15 devices is the limit. Also, you say that there’s a limit to how many devices “you connect to Homey”. Realise that most people will read this at the absolute total limit of Homey’s entire Zigbee network, but what you mean is that there’s a limit to the number of _directly connected_ devices.
- Router devices _certainly_ cannot handle 240 devices. Most are memory-constrained and will accept, at most, 10 child devices to be connected.
- A range of 10 to 30 meters indoors is too optimistic for router devices, from real world experience I would say about 10 to 15 meters _outdoors_ and about 5 meters indoors.
