Hi all,

Does anyone know if this power plug can be used with Homey?

Hi Simon, I can’t discover what niko zigbee is based on.  
They mention friends of Hue, so I think it might/could work with Hue or tradfri app.

But, a zigbee device of any kind, which can be switched on/off, can be added as Homey generic zigbee device.  
Keep in mind how you want your zigbee mesh builded up, I think it’s best to use one kind/brand of zigbee devices.

Works but you can’t see power consumption…  
Just a generic ZigBee switch.
