Hey all,

This looks interesting as a way of swapping light switches for home automation and potential integration with the BLGW...

Shame they don't do a 240V version.

Wonder if they could get it to work with the beomusic app.

Exactly I would love RA2.

How is the unit powered ? 110v only?

Not another device for the US only

If you look in the FAQ it say 110V only, maybe they will do a 240V later.

Sounds like they're working on a UK version. Nest wasn't out here at first either.

Your right. They say next release.

I have sent it it the BLGW developer as it may be worth looking at it early.

Also the BLGW driver creation tool including in the next release should allow one of the more technically minded of us to develop a driver.

How exciting.

I am always interested in devices that can be taken with you if you move house.

Hello

I see this has moved. 

Would this post not be better in Home Automation rather than people and lifestyle>????

I thought about that too, but the section is "B&O Home automation" and this thread
is not about home automation products from B&O.
Well..

From brilliant

"Thank you for your question!

Our initial product will be released in the US only, sorry about that. We hope to have support for 220v (european version) in 2018."

Martin. Seriously. the Home Automation forum is about all manners of home automation that can be integrated with B&O. The whole point of the BLGW is that it bridges many diverse home automation systems. That is the proper forum -- not the "lifestyle" forum.

Don't forget that you Europeans have the very cool KNX interfaces that are non-existent in the U.S. Some of those KNX wall devices are truly beautiful. (I still do love my Lutron RadioRA 2 backlit custom-engraved button keypads, though!)

True but KNX seems quite an involved thing to get fitted? Switches like this seem the way to go (use Bluetooth/WiFi etc and existing power).

@Seanie_230 - nice one for emailing them. Definitely worth looking into BLGW integration early. Would be amazing to have B&O AV controls on the switch!
