Hi,
I have implemented Alexa to control the Logitech Harmony Hub, and it works great, I really really like it.
BUT, I wanted to extend and buy a second Harmony Hub. Before doing this I did a bit of research and noticed that, it is impossible of very difficult to implement a second hub with Alexa, because of the way the Alexa skill talks to Harmony.
I decided to call Logitech Harmony tech support and they confirmed to me that the only way to make it work is by creating another Amazon account and register the Alexa device that will control the second hub on the second Amazon account. This iwould be a nightmare.
Then I called Amazon and I told them what Logitech suggested, and they said it can be done but they don't recommend it, because having a second Amazon account on the same name with a Different email would be quite confusing.
Amazon Alexa customer service also said that they don't have a solution for a second hub.
I told them that I saw a Skill called Harmony - secondary Hub but is available only on amazon.com not on amazon.ca
Yes... they said they don't control the skills.
Anyway, I am stuck. Any ideas ?
Any Harmony Hub users here?
Another option is to find another IR blaster similar to Harmony hub, but there are not many options. There is not competition to the Harmony Hub.
I am open to any suggestion
