This should work with Domoticz, it's what I intend to use with it. I've received the boards from China and I'm currently working on a version 2 of this board. There are some errors in the design of version 1 that I need to get out. New version will be up shortly.
@lis610 I have found with a 499K resistor the range is reduced to about 1.2m in a ABS box.
With a 1Mohm it was about 3m, I do not have many high value SMD resistors to experiment with but the lower the value the lower the range.
Just tried with a 333K and it operates about 0.8m in free air.
I have already published all the documentation, on my website, GitHub and openhardware.io
For now I leave the node as finished.

I successfully worked around the issue by updating the /Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Indigo 2022.1/Plugins/MySensors.indigoPlugin/Contents/Server Plugin
/plugin.py script to recognize the internal 21 code.
Here's the diff:
34c134,135
< "GATEWAY_READY" : [14, "Gateway ready", ""]
"GATEWAY_READY" : [14, "Gateway ready", ""],
"DISCOVER_RESPONSE" : [21, "Discover response", ""]
715a717,719
elif itemType == self.getInternalNumber("DISCOVER_RESPONSE"):
# 21 Ignore
pass
P.S. Indigo 2022.1 is complaining about this plugin that it won't be supported in future releases. Is there anyone out there planning to update this plugin?

Looks cool! Do you have experience with capacities switches? I did not play much with them. afraid to use close to AC interference though...
You need to use a capacitive IC with active shielding, basically you have an extra electrode around your touch electrode and the touch IC will compare capacitive change of the touch electrode with capacitive change from the shield electrode. If the change is due to electrical interference then both electrodes will be changed in a similar way and the IC will not trigger.
