Just as a 'by the way' type of thing.
I have read posts that say Z-Wave will not work in a metal box fixture. I invite those folks to provide some specific info on that.
I have personally, as a test, have wrapped my HA22 into a an aluminum 'box' and was able to communicate well with the rest of my Z-Wave net.
Some of you will probably never understand that, at certain frequencies, a metal box becomes a 'reflector'.
I have 'some' understanding of RF theory and believe my view is right.
Challengers?...
