This group of devices is basically for additional presence control. The Nest thermostats and Protects basically run themselves. The thermostat 'away' mode triggers my away scripts which turn items off. The Protects are SOLID [smoke detectors](http://www.vmwareinfo.com/2017/06/psa-check-out-your-smoke-detectors-once.html). They really came in handy during [Irma](http://www.vmwareinfo.com/2017/09/smart-home-lessons-from-hurricane-irma.html). The SleepIQ bed adds to my presence detection. It will notify HA if either side of the bed is occupied. More controls are coming but I use this extensively. The WiThings scale also triggers morning and goodnight routines depending on when I step on it during the day.
