In europe there is a big difference between the manufacturers waranty that is up to the manufacturer to offer or not to offer as he likes and the legal waranty that is an obligation for the seller that he cannot escape.
So in europe the customer always holds the reseller responsible and not the manufacturer.

At least the Matter compatible products are local and non proprietary by definition, guess that these device use WiFi as Thread would require a border router.

You would know if it didn’t work, I can guarantee that as I was foolish enough to apply the update while being 700km away and not being back before August. Luckily most of my devices are Matter over Thread, so despite HA being offline I can still monitor our RV over Apple Home.
@Squizzy
While an integration is a piece of software running in Homeassistant, Apps come into play when things get complex, for example you need a server handling a protocol stack like MQTT or MATTER . Those run in a dedicated virtual machine and can even be installed on another physical machine.
@dislabled
Nowadays there are lots of people without a routable IP V4 address. As providers don’t have enough addressspace for all their customers they use NAT.
My question was how you did manage to adjust the entity type. (As I don’t have zwave)
By the way:
Homeassistant simply works with the entities provided by the various integrations. So in this case the Zwave integration (Happens to be also maintained by the Homeassistant project) has to learn to report your device correctly to Homeassistant.
@bluesheep
I must admit that this is by far the most extensive but really, really convincing way to say: „I have no clue what Homeassistant is“ that I have seen so far.
@Mpeach45
Click on „Basic“ then settings (the gear icon) and you should have a „display as“ setting.
If z-wave integration does not allow that, you can always create a template sensor that converts it to binary sensor.
Did anyone tell you that HA can be quite a rabbit hole where you can achieve virtually anything but not always easily.
@Bakkoda
If you were to implement that change, would you apply it to existing deployments?
No?
So why do you expect them to be dumber than you are?

Isn‘t that what firewalls are for?

From time to time you meet people who are the only ones who have understood.

And burglars normally don’t even bother with a lock, they look for another way in.
@EarMaster
Under some specific circumstances AUTO might be more economic but that would be the exception rather than a rule.

Sensing some confusion out there.
ECO mode, exactly as the name implies, uses less water and less energy.

@AndLeoErd
Sure as you did add them manually.
@AndLeoErd
Entities with the „visible“ attribute set to „off“ do not appear in any of the automatically populated dashboards.
