Logitech Harmony Questions

[JDRoberts]

@desertblade is correct: the harmony hub extender is for people who do not have SmartThings.

To control Z wave switches with a Harmony remote you would need the harmony hub plus the SmartThings hub or The harmony hub plus the harmony hub extender. But not all three.

Smartthings Hub v2 vs. Harmony Hub Extender

Hello! I’m trying to decide whether to buy ST v2 or the newly released Harmony Hub Extender to go along with my Harmony Hub. I’m only going to be using Z-Wave sensors, dimmers and switches with this hub, which needs to be integrated with the rest of my home entertainment devices (cable box, TV, A/V receiver, PS3, Apple TV, etc.) through the Harmony Hub. Some of the Z-Wave sensors I’ll be adding are Gen5, which I believe is supported by both hubs. I’m pretty sure ST is a lot more flexible than Harmony Hub Extender regarding device compatibility and activities/rules, but I’m concerned that Logitech might lose interest in supporting ST now that they have released their own Z-Wave/Zigbee bridge. Any thoughts?
