All Kincony products have the same number of digital (dry contact) inputs and digital outputs (relay) - one digital input (button) for one relay (light). This is enough for 4 rooms - 2 buttons for 2 light when use KC868-A8/A8S board. But in a smart home, in a one room, I have more digital inputs:
- a motion sensor
- a door opening sensor
- a window opening sensor
- a lock sensor
I have nowhere to connect these sensors to have all the automation (ESPHome automation) in one KC868-A8 / A8S controller:
binary_sensor:
- platform: gpio
name: "motion-sensor1"
on_press:
then:
- switch.turn_on: switch1
Final conclusions: KC868 ESP32 board should have more inputs: more connectors on the motherboard or additional inputs on the expansion board connected to the I2C port on motherboard.
