| MQTT | Works Local | Work local-only via USB Zigbee dongleSaved copyThere's nothing stopping you from using Sonoff Zigbee sensors local only.

| Zigbee | Works Local | Solid, battery lasts yearsSaved copySonoff and IKEA got solid AF products at reasonable prices, never let me down. I think some of my Sonoff sensors are actually immortal because it's been years and they are still at 99% battery 😳 still reporting strong. Hue got darn good products as well, but those are pricey.
