Will a non-wiser Zigbee repeater work as a repeater for Wiser?

Hi everyone,

 

I've looked around for an answer to this, both here and on other forums, e.g. Home Assistant, but have been unable to find one. The Wiser Plugs are very expensive and I don't actually need a smart plug, so will any other Zigbee device which can work as a repeater work as a repeater for Wiser? E.g. I've got my eye on secondhand Tradfri, Sengled and Smartthings Zigbee plugs as I can get three of them (I need three) for the price of one Wiser plug.

 

If an off-the-shelf repeater won't work then will a USB dongle like the Sonoff one work with a suitable computer? I've not setup Home Assistant yet but I suppose this would be a good motivation to do so.

 

Cheers 🙂

I got a reply on the HASS forums that non-Wiser repeaters won't work because the Wiser Zigbee network will only accept Wiser own-brand devices. Hmmm, quite short-sighted a system design for home automation when there might be many Zigbee devices of different brands that should be able to co-exist rather than each need to use their own exclusive network channel thus unnecessarily creating congestion.
