From what I understand, running an aqara device connected to a Sonoff Zigbee dongle instead of an aqara E1 hub. would work under open hab.
I have bought aqara zigbee devices (movement sensors, door sensors, fire alarm) and a tuya alarm (120 decibels). The aqara hub e1 could see the aqara apps on my android phone. However, it did not have the alarm integrated into the hub.
The aqara hub M2 has an integrated alarm. Under the aqara app for the android phone, it sees the other aqara devices, but not the tuya alarm.
Under home assistant, if I use a Sonoff Zigbee dongle instead of the aqara hub M2, will I connect to the aqara devices, and peculiarly the fire alarm, and will I be able to tie the tuya alarm (which is wifi) to the aqara sensors ?
I am quite new under the home assistant environment, any cue in the good direction will help.
Thanks!
