| ESP8266 + MQTT / Node-RED | Partly works | RFXCOM cannot decode it; DIY ESP8266 or dry-contact receiver to MQTT worksSaved copyHas anyone found a good solution for the Dakota driveway sensors. The ones I have are 433.92. I used to use a Dakota to Insteon bridge, but I'm trying move away from Insteon to wifi only devices, if possible. RFXCOM receiver does not seem to be able to hear or decode these, despite the freq Sensor is 90 yards from receiver Sensor runs a very long time on a single 9v Prefer not cloud based, for lots of reasons, mostly lag. Reciever has dry contact outputs, so thats a backup option, but feel like I'd love to just have something that is able to rcv the rf and deal with it.

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.
In ReReHome
Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
