Heavy Duty Pool/Water Heater Smart Switch

@buster reported on another thread that Jasco says their model is being discontinued with no expected replacement…

GE 40 amp zwave smart switch for pools (45734/12726)

We met with Jasco/GE and these are officially discontinued. Supply Chain is now exhausted and anything left on retailers shelves will go quickly. They have no intentions today of manufacturing more. The nice part about these is they could handle in-rush current really well. Like Heat Tape / Heat Cable / Heat Trace, or electric elements. We typically see 5x to 10x the in-rush current on systems like that. What are people switching too besides contractors and relays? This is a huge bummer they have end-of-life these switches.
