Ahoy ya'll,
My Vera Lite G, after years of service, has died. Unfortunately for me, half my house is now controlled by Z-Wave in someway so I'm desperately looking for a Z-Wave USB stick or a replacement Vera unit.
Cheers

Active Automation aren't trading in Level 4. I'm also after one but don't have such urgency!
Indeed they aren't, which makes sense. I normally wouldn't be so desperate but I have a large amount of Z-Wave devices hanging off my Vera Lite G, although not exactly essential it's sure incredibly inconvenient. Terrible timing for a normally reliable appliance to fall over randomly.
Can you get ZWave stuff from Aussie?

My first ever AM radio network connection was with a 1MHz AM crystal(OA91) radio receiver.

Yes theirs are compatible with ours.
Personally, unless it's needed this weekend, I'd email ActiveAutomation and see if they hope to trade under level-3 - since it's increasingly looking like that may be the new reality next week.

You're certain it's not just the power supply that has failed?

Um, yes. Very certain.
The Z-Wave chip itself appears to have died. If Vera support can't get it going, it's dead.
