  • We strongly encourage users to list any and all products they tested and installed.
  • If a product works but you did not like it, please list it anyway. It may be the only product available to some users.



IMPORTANT! The devices listed here have been added by installers,technicians and users like yourself. Results may vary upon installations. MiCasaVerde does not guarantee operation and compatibility with your installation. The listed devices were found to work with their specific installation. Mixing different series and brands of equipment is not guaranteed in any way to work with other series and brands. It is very likely that users have not fully tested all features of the devices, so it is possible that a device listed here as compatible, will not prove compatible with your hardware. If you are editing this wiki DO NOT REMOVE a listed working device if it hasn't worked for you. Seek help to get the device to work under your individual circumstance. If you are adding to this wiki, please provide links to data for the device and add any tips you feel may benefit someone wanting to implement the device into an installation

Cooper Wiring Devices Handheld Controller RFHDCSG 1.13 Nov 2008 Indoor Link Link Works well with Vera. Can transfer devices from Vera to the handheld but doesn't transfer device names. Also very expensive.
