you need minimum of 2 to mesh

No. just like the Highlander movie.. There can be only one, it doesn't play with other WiFi systems

Both, I had a couple of spots I couldn't run cable to so bought the Arlo. The Reolink is the 5MP 8 channel NVR and I really like it.

I'd say the same. The Smartthings community is huge so if you enjoy playing and experimenting go for the smartthings. The Deco is one of…

The reason Racv was selling the Arlo is because it works really well with Smartthings. I have a couple. Reolink would always come out ahead…

To be honest it depends on your needs, If you just want a mesh system they are very similar, if you want a home automation ability then you…

Incorrect. The WiFi hub is a different product, it uses different firmware to the V2 and V3 as it has WiFi. The Z-wave and Zigbee hardware…

No real comparison, the smartthings has WiFi Zigbee and Zwave wireless protocols with a home automation ability. The Smartthings WiFi mesh…

RACV was strangely the distributor in Australia when it was launched over here. I was in Jb hifi and it was at the RRP of $199. This is not…

Just bought one thanks. Hoping this will replace my aging Portasol Technic. A gas soldering iron is brilliant for those little jobs away…

Sound quality is excellent for such a little unit and is overkill for a surround rear speaker. The unit is solid and well built. Battery…
