[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1136685, member: 18896"] Ohh and yes, Z-Wave frequencies are as follows: India = 865.2 MHz Europe = 868.42 MHz United States = 908.42 MHz Israel = 916 MHz Hong Kong = 919.82 MHz Australia/New Zealand = 921.42 MHz And all Z-Wave devices have to use the same frequency in your network, so be indeed sure to order the right one (not that hard, European models usually have EU in their product name, as I look for all the US labeled ones myself). France + UK have a giant Z-Wave community, so you might be able to get cheap units there, just keep a close eye on possible voltage, or appliance plug differences. A big distributor [URL='http://www.vesternet.com'][B]www.vesternet.com[/B][/URL] sells EU-plug based Z-Wave units while located in the UK. They also sell the Fibaro hardware (Polish company), which I absolutely love for their motion sensor (got 4 of them now), but their controllers are freaking expensive here ($750 for the HC2, and $250 for the Lite), and should be much cheaper for you. These are hardware controllers with a very nice interface, so it would replace the Vera3, and no need for any PC/Pi or USB stick or software. [/QUOTE]
