Woot has Kwikset Convert kits for $30. They’re labeled as Amazon Key edition and there’s some scary text saying that they have to be connected via an Amazon Cloud Cam, but I bought one as open-box stock from Amazon Warehouse a year or two ago and it connected directly to ST via Zigbee with no issues. Great deal.

Here’s a past conversation about using the Amazon Key edition:
I installed one of these today, officially " Kwikset Convert Smart Lock Conversion Kit (Amazon Key Edition – Amazon Cloud Cam required)" but really just a Kwikset Convert zigbee lock. Works great, with standard DH and runs all my webCoRE rules. I chose one in “acceptable condition” since it was going in the garage, but it was in very good shape and wouldn’t have been shy to mount it on the front door!
I have 2 of these and love them.

Thanks! Picked up 2.Too good of a deal to pass up!
I have one that keeps loosing connection and another one that is z-wave plus instead of a-wave so it doesn’t work with the z-wave housing.
This should fix both issues for just $60. Can’t beat it.
