Been using tp-link smart plugs for a moment. Not really had any problems with them but i want to move to something such as z-wave or a ZigBee. Something that is totally local and does not require a different app on my phone.

Yup, heavy thirdreality user here too. They're pretty solid, almost zero problems with the dozen I have around my house.

Have the temperature/humidity sensors and tilt sensors for my garage doors as well. Only problem I had with any of them was due to a battery leaking in one of them from the included AA's, but I caught it before it caused any real damage.
