I've seen plenty of posts on the topic of using Python in relation to the Razberry API. What I'd like to see a discussion on or maybe some documentation/examples of is using Python to control/monitor devices through the Razberry card. I'm looking to make my own "home brew" automation setup and had intended on going with Z-Wave and need to nail down what I'm going to use for a controller. I already own a Raspberry Pi and love Python. So with that being said, what I'm looking to do is create my own program and gui using Python and be able to control/monitor my devices. How well will the Razberry card work with this intended setup? Anybody out there have any experience with a similar setup?

Not at all!
Unless you purchase a $3000+ licence from Zensys, or use the ZWay stack, or OpenZWave or some other sw. This question has been asked many times before. It is a pretty tedious task to build up from the bottom .

That's unfortunate. Being tedious is not an issue as that's kind of what I'm looking for. The goal was to use something already available and build some custom sw along the way. The Razberry offers everything I want hardware wise, but I was hoping it was a little more friendly to a home brew sw setup

Thanks for the heads up though

Tedious is what I meant for building you own stack from the bottom up. The other options are much easier because you can build on something existing.
