NOTES
- Official Documentation - https://support.nabucasa.com/hc/en-us/categories/28669861145885
- Refurbished units: These refurbished units are customer returns (sent directly to us or via Amazon) that have been tested and confirmed to be fully functional, including testing with the ZWA-2 Toolbox Recover Adapter feature. When discovering Z-Wave devices in Home Assistant, the entry for this device may appear with the following message instead of the expected "Home Assistant Connect ZWA-2 "label:Translation [formatjs Error: MISSING_VALUE] The intl string context variable "home_id" was not provided to the string "Network {home_id} at {host}:{port}" Z-Wave". This is a harmless display issue and does not affect functionality. You can still select the entry to add the device—the setup process completes successfully. After adding, a temporary error may briefly appear in the Z-Wave integration, but it automatically resolves within a few minutes as the required add-ons install and start running. The device is then correctly detected and operates normally.

Trivia Time!
Works out the box. I lt was a few weeks ago but I recalled Home Assistant discovered and added it. The entire process was easy and straight forward.
Shipping was fast and the item (ZWA-2) is great! Only thing I did not expect was how big the ZWA-2 is, especially compared to some of the other adapters! When I got the package, I was wondering why would they have this large of a package for a Z-wave adapter. But then, that's my bad for not looking at the dimensions. Plus apperently the size is needed for the specs (which are great). And the size is not a problem really, esp since they include a USB extension cable so you can place it away from the HA host. Very happy with it.
I migrated from another Z Wave 700 series stick, and the ZWA-2 offers much stronger wireless signal - basically all of my devices in my 1500 sq ft townhouse now connect directly to the controller. The migration process using Home Assistant is shockingly pain free, I spent far more time adjusting the physical positioning of the (larger than you think) antenna.
I have posted here and extoled the virtues of the quality of ameriDroid. I'm a new customer and have ordered from them 4 times. I'm new to Home Assistant moving from Smartthings. ameriDroid has produced quality products with great support and fast easy delivery at affordable prices. I'm very impressed with the build and material quality of the products and easy of integration. As I continue to grow my HA network, ameriDroid has been my first stop shop for things I may need.
ummm WOW what can I say .. its faster and has so much more range then any of the other z-wave adapters and BONUS big powerful antenna on it ... no point in even thinking about any other adapters .. NOTHING BEATS THIS ONE !!! PERIOD !!! review done.
