Kwikset 916 Zigbee in 2020 using Rboy or other smartapps

The 916 a decent lock with a full keypad which overcomes some of the limitations of its half keypad siblings like the 912/914/888. You can check out the enhanced DTH to access some of the remote config features and also see more details about the point I mentioned in my first line.

It also depends on the usage. It’s fine to use with with app like LUM for personal use: [OBSOLETE] Lock User Management (LUM)

However if you’re using it for Rental or commercial use with automatic user generation with an app like RLA it may be better to use a commercial grade lock: [RELEASE] Rental Lock Automater - Airbnb, VRBO, HomeAway, TripAdvisor, Booking, Expedia

The Schlage FE599 is a little quirky. Yale has better battery life while Kwikset chipsets could be a hit or miss with battery reporting. For personal use however the 916 is quite capable.
