I'm getting ready to retire it, but only because I am changing my home automation system over to a new computer (non-Pi) and a new hub. This one is still going strong though. Will keep it as a backup to the new one.
I'm running Home Assistant via hass.io in an Ubuntu VMware VM. First, expose the USB device from the host to the VM. This is pretty straightforward. In VMWare, make sure the VM has a USB Controller and then add the USB Host Device. In the VM, I saw 2 USB devices, which was confusing until I later discovered the Z-Wave and Zigbee devices are presented as distinct devices to the OS: /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 respectively. The next challenge I faced was to determine how to present the new USB device to the homeassistant docker container. After much research into how one might go about doing that, I happened to check the hardware button in the hass.io UI and both devices were already listed, so it seems I dodn't need to do anything manually with docker -- the hass.io installer seems to have realized we might want USB to work.
I added the following to configuration.yaml:
zwave:
usb_path: /dev/ttyUSB0
zha:
usb_path: /dev/ttyUSB1
database_path: zigbee.db
.. then checked the config and restarted the homeassistant container. Home Assistant recognized the device right away and displayed a banner on the main status page.
Next step was to try to connect to and actually control something. In the other room was a Tadfri bulb connected to one of those tiny magnetic dimmer things, so that seemed like a good candidate. I scoured the internet trying to figure out what I needed to do to be able to add the bulb to Home Assistant without much luck. Here's what I discovered: Zigbee devices are like baby ducks, they imprint on the first thing they see as their mother.
So... to get the bulb working, I went to "Services" in the bottom of the left menu in Home Assistant and selected the "zha.permit" service, passing it {"duration":240} and clicked "Call Service". This put the stick in "permit" pairing mode that makes it look like mommy to the new ducks.
I then ran over to the light turning it on and back off 6 times (which is how you do a factory reset on that bulb. I knew it worked on the 6th or 7th time turning it on because the brightness changed. I checked the Overview page and there was a new light! I was able to rename it, turn it off and on, and adjust the brightness, all right away without doing anything in the config or restarting HA, or anything! The basic Zigbee device config seems to be all done in real time and stored in zigbee.db, so unlike most things in Home Assistant, it does not have to be manually configured.

Consider this when determining if you should buy it from this seller, and if you should just buy two individual devices. Had I known I wouldn't have purchased this. :-(


It's not zwave plus as it's description states.
I've not used the zigbee component of the USB yet but it should be ok due to zigbee using 2.4ghz
