You've given me something to think about!
Seems like such a low investment that I'll try this route first and see how far I get. Just ordered one from the US now.
I'm still going to need to do some research into the garage door sensor that I can hook into my system and ties into HA and also my unused Honeywell alarm set up from the previous owners).
