I am using Home Assistant with this add-on. Before I used the standard HA integration for zwave. I do love that it's all MQTT and that it can survive HA restarts.
I noticed that after 1 or more restarts, the batteries of my door sensors drain like crazy. I do have rechargeables (of course they don't have the same power as normal batteries, but I am trying to think about environment too). They used to work more than a year on my door sensors. Now they work fine for 2-3 weeks, but whenever I have to reboot the HA hypervisor (basically the whole machine including openzwave), the batteries seem to drain within a day.
Could this be related to the device info not being cached and the device somehow trying to resend its data continuously? Are there others experiencing this as well?
