I have a ton of Red series switches in my home and I need to replace a couple of them. I went to the website to purchase and all the Red products are listed as sold out with no backorder option. Are they gone for good? Is this a ZigBee shop now?

I would keep an eye on the Buy Swap and Sell section here. There were some for sale there and I am guessing that there will be more as some people convert to the Blues

Thanks! I had not heard about the shortages or the Phoenix switches. I’ll keep an eye out for preorders in December.

Not sure if I’m reading this right - Are you saying that you released a batch of Red series and then you aren’t sure if you are going to sell them again? I purchased 50 switches, I need another 20 to complete my home - now I’m totally screwed? Why would i purchase any more products if Inovelli won…

Both new and swapped out here. Probably will be a bunch of Reds as they get swapped out with Blues: Buy, Swap & Sell A place to buy, swap or sell your smart home products.

Lets be blunt. The existing Reds are never coming back. Inovelli and the Chinese manufacturer had a falling out and the Red tooling and firmware might as well be considered gone since the manufacturer has it. This means the product will not receive any further firmware updates or be produced again. …

So do we just wait for Project Phoenix? I have been trying to get a lot of on/off and dimmers for a basement remodel, and for the neighbors who are now getting into smart home stuff and ask all the time “why are they always out of stock?”. Don’t get me wrong ZigBee is great, but once you build a zwa…

Yes, project Phoenix is the next time a zwave device will be availabe.

Red Series Gone?

Availability estimates? General Discussion

The future of Red Series is to slowly get back into it now that chips are readily available. Project Phoenix is the first project back into Z-Wave and we would like to see how it does before fully committing to Z-Wave again. The high level view and strategy is to lead with Zigbee and then follow with Z-Wave. So, any product launched in Zigbee, will either right away have a Z-Wave variant, or we’ll see how it goes in Zigbee first before committing to Z-Wave.
