I'm not a professional installer. I'm just a guy so feel out of place here. We built a house 14 years ago and have an OP2 with the HAI light switches. I have had issues off and on with this system but for the most part it's been solid. I have a few issues going on now:
My alarm company, which never really dealt with HAI, had worked with me and monitors the OP2 and security. They will no longer since the product is discontinued.
I have a bunch of light switches that are dead and have some old (new) stock of switches I can switch out.
The question is, with my house and room controllers, and light switches, might I do better by getting my security company's security panel and going to a wireless/app controlled light automation system (Leviton comes to mind of course)? What do I do with the home/room controller boxes? Tough to patch venetian plaster and match if after that many years. The security company is coming out to discuss next week but I wanted anyone to give a little advice here if possible. I never was able to control the OP2 by my phone which was frustrating. I am choosing to move on sooner rather than later as I travel and can't leave my family without security. Thanks in advance.
