Hello everyone,
I’m using LogicMachine Zigbee app as the coordinator/gateway and I’m experiencing stability issues with some Zigbee end devices.
Observed issue
Some Zigbee sensors:
This behavior is very similar to what was mentioned in previous forum posts, where certain devices seem to require vendor-specific periodic messages / check-in frames, and if they don’t receive them, they eventually leave the network.
Devices where I see this problem
In the same Zigbee demo/network, Philips Hue lamps remain fully stable, acting as reliable routers, so mesh quality does not appear to be the main issue.
What I’m looking for
I would like to build a reliable Zigbee installation on LogicMachine and avoid devices that:
Request to the community
Could you please recommend Zigbee devices that you have personally tested with LogicMachine Zigbee app, and that:
I’m specifically interested in tested and proven models for:
Brand names alone are helpful, but exact model numbers would be ideal.
Thanks in advance for sharing your real-world experience.

Observed issue
Some Zigbee sensors:
- Pair successfully
- Work fine for hours or days
- Then silently drop off the Zigbee network if Logic Machine has energy lost in a long time
- Do not rejoin automatically
- Require factory reset and re-pairing to work again

Devices where I see this problem
- Sonoff SNZB-04P (Door/Window Sensor)
- Sonoff LCD Temperature & Humidity Sensor

What I’m looking for
I would like to build a reliable Zigbee installation on LogicMachine and avoid devices that:
- Drop off the network after some time
- Require periodic vendor-specific messages
- Need manual reset to rejoin
Request to the community
Could you please recommend Zigbee devices that you have personally tested with LogicMachine Zigbee app, and that:
- Stay connected long-term
- Rejoin the network correctly after outages
- Do not require non-standard keepalive mechanisms
I’m specifically interested in tested and proven models for:
- Door / Window (magnetic) contact sensors
- Smoke detectors
- Water leak sensors
Brand names alone are helpful, but exact model numbers would be ideal.
Thanks in advance for sharing your real-world experience.
