Hello, have any of the YoLink devices listed here been tested and vetted? http://www.yosmart.com/products-list They are "LoRa enabled".

Hello @evectis,

Unfortunately it looks like YoLink uses a proprietary LoRa protocol. LoRa is an LPWAN technology developed by Semtech, and LoRaWAN is a networking layer built on top of LoRa. The Helium Network uses LoRaWAN, and therefore requires that devices be LoRaWAN compatible, you can read more about our network design here.

“YoLink” is a proprietary wireless technology provided by YoSmart. which is based on the Semtech’s LoRa wireless technology combined the YoSmart smart home/buiding protocol, to provide most advanced smart home/buidling devices solution.
