| Z-Wave | Partly works Local | Partly in Home Shows as Window in Home app; battery status wrong | Covers default to window class; wrong battery entity selectedSaved copyThe problem For the past year or so, I've had 4 shades working as expected in Home Assistant, running the full HAOS on a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8GB of RAM. I've also successfully used the HomeKit integration to pipe them into that ecosystem for the same amount of time. I was recently forced to reboot that Raspberry Pi.

A few months ago, zwavejs started exposing many more undefined battery attributes. I had disabled all of the entities in Home Assistant except for the first two. However, I then noticed that HomeKit was no longer surfacing battery status and throwing this error: > Logger: homeassistant.components.homekit.accessories > Source: components/homekit/accessories.py:249 > Integration: HomeKit (documentation, issues) > First occurred: 7:59:51 AM (4 occurrences) > Last logged: 7:59:51 AM > > cover.dining_room_window: Battery sensor state … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #81861 · 2022-11 |

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
