Hi !

Thanks for these detailed answers. Everything seems well designed. Looking forward to receive my hardware and be able to get my hands on.

Has anyone designed a case for the sensebender gateway ?

Hi all,

I'm interested in creating a mysensors network to add some sensors that are currently missing on my z-wave home automation network.

Regarding the radio, I will probably use the RFM69 at 433MHz. I've seen that the nrf can be set up to act as repeater-sensor node. Is that also available on RFM69 ?

Regarding general sensor power consumption, do they only transmit RF data when the sensors or repeater has a real value to transmit to the gateway or is there any general metadata to send that requires regular packets to be sent ? In other words, if I have a temperature sensor sending only data when there is a temperature change, is it true to say that there won't be any radio activity if there is no temperature change ?

Last question, is it the gateway that requests values from the sensors (with no risk of collisions) or do the sensors send data to the gateway as soon as it is available (with risk of radio collision) ? Or is the protocol smarter than this ?

Thanks !
