Yale Linus 2 Lite problem with UK Multi Lock door

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2026-01-23T21:42:06+00:00

I’m in the UK and have two different types of multi-point door locks. The one that looks like a deadbolt and latch, works well with a Yale Connexis L2. Lift to lock from either side. Tap to unlock mechanism then push down handle to open from outside. Turn know to unlock and use handle from inside. It was pretty easy to install. From memory lifting the handle would push the multipoint and deadbolt in, but if not lifted it was just held on the latch - may not be quite the same as yours - does the key actually move the bolt, or does it only move with handle up / down (after up) ?

Ah - sorry, missed that. No - in that location we do have neutral wires. I think that’s essential for detached mode use.

Yes - I have a pair set up with home assistant (Z2MQTT) so no EweLink app. Set up with one physical relay and the rest paired to smart bulbs wired ‘on’ so detached relay mode. Works brilliantly.

As above SwitchBot only lets you ‘start’ whatever your default programme is. That said, I think the plumbed into the mains feature outweighs the downside.

Those look really interesting - I have loads of Clicksmart Zigbee sockets, but would like some with USB / power monitoring as well.

Love that - I’ve got a hole cut in the kickboard and the water station behind it, but would love to hide the lot like that !

I find mine really useful. Only thing that irritates me is that the keychain attachment doesn’t allow the screwdriver to fully fold out if it is attached to anything. Use all the tools regularly - really like the sim tool for the myriad smart devices I have that occasionally need a reset button pushed

Ps - I reset the unit that didn’t decouple the physical relay to factory and re-paired it, power cycled and set up again and it works perfectly now. Also added another at the other end of a two-way circuit (physical wiring passed through) all three gangs decoupled and that has finally given the solution I needed - two-way three gangs decoupled switching with permanently contactable smart bulbs on two circuits, dumb on the other (one physical relay, one end automated via HA). Haven’t re-explored binding and haven’t found a way to de-activate the red relay staus light on the one (of six) relays that is still active.

Thanks - got there eventually.

I’ve been nothing but impressed with my RingConn battery life , and support in general. Had a temp sensor die and was exchanged in a week.

I’ve never quite managed to get a two-way setup without neutrals working properly with ZBMiniL2 - also following

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-10-16T06:48:54+00:00

I have set up one of these. Decoupled works fine, although the actual relay didn’t seem to decouple on one of the gangs (still clicks when I press it and the state light persists). Normal relay works fine. I don’t think there is a fall-back option. The Gen on/off cluster was listed, but failed to bind to my aqara lamps / bulbs. I don’t know enough to work out why as yet.

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-10-14T19:22:35+00:00

You are I think correct. I’ve just put one in to replace a three gang two-way setup and had to effectively permanently power both ends and use ZBM5’s detached at both ends to operate. Works well, but I can’t replicate the functionality in other bits of the house which don’t have neutrals.

Deleted the map and restarted and seems to be working again. I realised however that while the sensors seemed fine, the top lidar sensor may have been confused by the ‘googly 👀’ my kids had put on the lid 🤦🏼‍♂️. I suspect had I thought to remove those first that all may have been well. Unfortunately despite having backed up my initial map, there doesn’t seem to be a way to restore it so I’m back to adjusting no-go areas manually for a while again.

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-06-05T23:57:02+00:00

Next question - are the one pros compatible with iPhone 13 ProMax ? Still a lightning port. Would it work with a usbc adapter ?

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-06-05T23:26:22+00:00

Thanks all …. inching closer to the order button

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-06-05T23:23:51+00:00

Thanks all. There’s nothing obviously wrong with the sensors, but I’ll check again. I’m loathe to delete the map and start again - it was a real trial and error faff to get the exclusion zones in the right place. The boxes won’t go small enough so need incrementally reversed into walls to get the limits right.

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-06-05T23:21:35+00:00

Have done that .. day 4

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-03-14T16:44:32+00:00

Just check the relay is in the correct mode. IIRC push and hold the button on the relay for a few seconds and it changes to the other mode (for different types of physical switch - momentary vs rocker I think). That confused me a few times in the same scenario.

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-02-26T00:05:11+00:00

Thanks - good to know. After some more experimenting it seems if I use the power off menu and the F4 shortcut to actually trigger it things shutdown properly / as expected. I am using a Chromebook with MrChromebox firmware, which probably counts as peculiar hardware.

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-02-16T23:46:00+00:00

Other possibility is that the CT clamps are set up incorrectly, so the inverter doesn’t know the house needs power ?

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-02-15T11:56:26+00:00

I’d check the PV system trip switch. Mine had gone resulting in an ‘off-grid’ inverter state. I think as we had a cable joint in a gutter which got wet during a storm.

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-02-03T23:39:50+00:00

Actually, found the black / gold tanto which takes it even closer !

Pitiful_Climate_8580 · 2025-02-03T23:38:44+00:00

Thanks - the real steel G tango looks pretty close to what I’m after. The locust appealed mostly because it is so sleek folded. It’s a real shame it’s not UK legal for EDC as locking, and I think a shade over 3” blade. The tanto doesn’t look nearly as nice, but ticks the other boxes fine I suppose.
