I am currently using Futurehome (Norway) on my cabin, but are considering to move to Homey Pro since Futurehome are moving towards a subscription-fee.
Would it be possible and easy to move my Futurehome EV-charger, the HAN-reader and the 16A puck controlling my hotwater into HomeyPro?
My “must-have” issues are:
I want the EV-charger to be closed for use until you approve by app og by keytag (the charger is placed so that it is easy for “everyone” to use it - and I do not want that
I need to have the function to keep powerusage under a certain level in order to control the net-charge (not power-cost).
The futurehome is introducing subscription based service linkand have asked all users to activate it by 26th July. Elektroimportoren is giving a 1000 NOK rebate for returning the futurehome hub and buying the homey pro link. This seems to be an opportunity for homey pro if they are able to add support for all futurehome devices esp car charger, han sensor, puck relay and smoke alarms. As per futurehome website 30,000 futurehome hubs are active. I have just bought homey pro and testing how the futurehome products work here. Till now I dont see any support for their car chargers, han sensors and smoke alarms.
Quickly jumping in here to say that we have taken over development of the official Futurehome App for Homey with one of our agencies. We have received samples of almost all missing products and will start adding those as far as its technically possible. The smoke alarms (both 230v and battery), the HAN sensor, LED dimmer, puck relay and scene switcher will all be added.
As for the car charger we are struggling as you need to first connect it to a Futurehome hub to enable Zigbee, only afterwards can it be paired to another Zigbee controller. But we are figuring that out and have asked Futurehome if Zigbee can be enabled in another way.
Certainly not! Apps in the Homey App Store are all free to use. Since the Futurehome devices simply connect locally and directly with Homey over Zigbee no subscription is required.
Tried to connect one of the smoke alarms today, but was told that this z-wave product was not integrated. It was therefore added as a regular z-wave device.
If you need more feedback on the 220v detector, feel free to ask!

Tried to connect one of them yesterday (Produkt-ID: 20). Was inkluded as a unknown z-wave device. No info about battery, alarm, etc.
Homey’s Futurehome app 1.4.0.
About the temperature from the smokedetector…Now it has always been like this with the fire alarms from Futurehome that we have that they show about 4 degrees too much. So if you can calibrate the degrees on the smoke alarms that would be very good. Futurehome never managed to do this themselves, so I assume it is not possible, but just wanted to mention it.
