Has the Arlec Grid Connect Smart Home Hub been discontinued?

[newmarsmission]

I could not see the Smart Home Bluetooth hub sold separately only in a pack that is $77.00 which again is a shame if that is the case for those that bought Bluetooth products without the hub.  It leaves them with more sensors to connect without an extended hub.

Hi @newmarsmission

You  may have to a google search to locate and  purchase a new  arlec  smart  hub.

I feel the techo winds  blowing towards indepentant wifi  equipment that does away with additional hubs.  So  consider buying what your blue tooth devices  need to keep them working for the near future.

Consider switching to Wifi  direct  devices for the future.

Thats my personal  take on the tech winds of change.  I personally dont like extra hub systems as  I prefer to run one  extended  Mesh wifi network that has only one common net work connection and  password for all my devices.  It also allows  my ph to talk to any mesh hub with out disconecting and re connecting at other end of the house.  The system monitors all of that and optimises signal strengths.

Not saying you dont  deserve you  blue tooth hubs .  I hope you get what you need.

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @newmarsmission.

Was it this Arlec Grid Connect Smart Home Control Kit that you were looking at? That kit appears to have a "hub" for the Smart button, Contact sensor and Motion sensor, but I don't believe it is a hub for other devices. However, there is the Arlec Grid Connect Smart Home Hub, which is a different product. It is discontinued, and that might be due to a new model being released. I've checked with Arlec, and there is still stock available of that item; you can place an order for one at your local store's Special Orders desk. Please provide this model number to the team: SGS01HA

Please let me know if you have any questions.
