Yeah, I've been dealing with the fallout of doing a firmware upgrade suggested by zwave2js which - I don't know - changed the IDs on every single one of my 60 z-wave devices. I've been going through fixing dashboards, and automations, and scripts. It's been a major PITA. It is, however, the first time a breakage of this magnitude has happened to me in a decade.
It wasn't just that devices changed; some stayed the same but the entity value IDs of their functions changed. It was so random.
I'm going to think twice about doing that, next time.
