Hey @dsylex are all of them the same model?

[dsylex]

Same model (ComfortX) but it's been solved since I've moved it to a child bridge. also added a new AC and all 6 works fine now. Thanks for getting back to me, appreciated!

Great, a child bridge is better cause is running in a separate process from the homebridge
