Nope. Not that I know of. I asked about it on Twitter, I think, and got a non response which I took as a "nah, too hard". I believe the original Kickstarted product got support for an AU model (with the AU/NZ z-wave chip) but they never did another one.

Not sure. My boss has set up a lot of this stuff with an amazon echo. He orders all his stuff online & gets it shipped. 

I asked them on facebook a few days ago and they came back saying no immediate plans :-(

Going to have to get a Vera Edge instead.

People ordering stuff from overseas need to ensure they're using hardware that's legal in NZ frequency wise.

RSM do not handle ignorance of the law when it comes to radio devices as a defence.

Mark: Anyone heard if the Smartthings products are coming to NZ anytime soon ? 

While the Samsung Smartthings product set seems to fast becoming the 'home automation' glue that sticks everything else together they don't seem to be any hurry in launching in Australia / New Zealand,  but you can order over the internet.

And while the american / european versions use a different power plug and the Z-Wave components aren't legitimate here, it should work just fine.

That's what I'm hoping as I've just placed an order that should arrive towards the end of next week.

Technofreak: @rogercruse, in light of the post above yours and fact you say the Z wave components are not legitimate in New Zealand why would you bother trying to import and have potential RF conflicts and risk the attention of the Radio Spectrum guys?

I have a Vera Plus (for sale if anyone wants it...?) at home which I planned to use with a locally sources z-wave dongle (You can set the z-wave to use a USB port rather than the internal chip). If you can do the same with a smartthings hub then that's a decent option.

The heart of the Samsung Smartthings solution is the 'hub' and: 

 

1. The Z-Wave functionality can be disabled (I read it on another forum)
2. There are other ways to communicate between devices
3. The hub component is reasonably priced at one hundred yankee dollars, so if I ever want to use Z-Wave devices and Samsung announce a New Zealand compliant solution then it can be replaced

Disrespective:

Why selling it? Not a good option?
