Hi Everyone!

As we mentioned before, we are really excited to see all the activity across the forum and your recent posts on this thread gave us the idea to enable the community to band together and help us fuel the development of the drivers you may need. We are now testing this concept with a crowdfunding campaign to fund the Nuki driver: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/integration-nuki-for-the-beoliving-intelligence

We think this could be a real opportunity, as it would help us cover the costs of importing the hardware and with the systems physically in our lab, we will be able to develop the best driver possible. We hope you view it the same way and await your always great feedback

P.S. We are still waiting for a response from the tado team to see if they have a stable communication protocol they won't make obsolete a month after we develop the driver. Feel free to propose new systems you think could be supported by the whole community!

Is the Beolink2 App or Beoliving App working oke also with a ML gateway type 1701?

I have a Beomaster 5 and BV 7-40 and Essence MK1

I can buy a MLGW but no sence if there is no app working anymore.

ethuijs: The MLGW can be controlled from the BeoLink and BeoLink2 apps, though I must say that the capabilities are very limited when comparing with newer systems. The BLGW integrates with the equipment you mention, you might be better off with that.

Dear Ivan, what is the difference between a ML GW and BLGW? And if I buy the ML GW now and later if I have newer equipment and buy a BLI will the BLI have access to my older systems through the ML GW or will I also need a BLI with BL GW for this?

Kind regards, Edwin

That Nuki smart lock looks great.

Does it work with any door type? Tempted to buy one.

I will contribute to the driver anyhow just because I think new drivers sell more products and we all win in the long run Eclipse 65 V1-32 Beosound M5 Essence MK2 BLI

You will be amazed how easy it is to install and setup! If I recall correctly you have a doorbird as well….you can integrate doorbird with nuki. But even if you use it on its own it is a very clever door lock.

ethuijs: The BLGW offers a great deal of integration and automation possibilities in comparison to the MLGW, you can find guides to both systems here: https://beointegration.com/help-files/

If you are thinking to move to the BLI later, they can both (BLGW & MLGW) be used as interface for the BLI to control the legacy products.

I happily contributed to the Nuki driver campaign. So I hope we will have it soon...

I use Tado as well for my heating system as for the AC units control I feel it's as great as Nuki... I will happily bake the campaign for it as soon as you decide, but as far as I know the API protocol is stable and has been improved over the years.

I'm based in Italy and I obviously run an Italian Amazon account.

So I've been struggling to install the Beoliving Intelligence by Khimo Skill untill I understood it was available in US only...

I made to install it and it was very painful (swich country, than install, than go back to your country), so I gave up eventually.

Question for @Khimo Team: why don't you publish the skill in Italy even thou it's in English only? (Alexa now accepts commands in english worldwide even if the main setting is on something elese).

hope you will take the task.
