I've used the thermostats from Lutron RadioRa2 with great success, but you have to poll them as no unsolicited or change of state feedback
We've settled on Aprilaire. They have their issues, but usually once you work them out they are OK ... until one fails completely. But it's usually obvious and catastrophic enough of a failure that you know what to replace right away. Usually. The exceptions are a true nightmare, but thankfully not common.
Are you using the 8800's now or still reffering to the 8870's. I'm curious if those initial com bugs the 8800's had are gone yet.
But are 8800's v2 working good, similar to what we had with the 8870's?
Too early to tell. it's only been a couple weeks.
But then we have many installs using the 8870's and the AMX stat that seem fine too, once connectivity and actual defective units are settled. Miniverters are often a problem, we used a serial connection on the 8870 which we find more reliable. Test by unit substitution instead of tearing at the programming when something seems wrong... much faster to a solution.
