Thank you for your insight. I believe I came across some BLE tags that have replaceable coin batteries. Radius Networks has one.
I completely understand your position and wanting to wait. You've always helped out this community very kindly through your educational posts and cool plugins. Really!
The more I read about BLE it's the prefect complement to home automation and if anything it is a must. BLE will be an integral part of future home automation.
Do you think it would be possible to make PiBeacon a device in HS, then using BluePy-Python Scripts - JSON that range data ( Far, Near, Immediate) and sent to HS. And if the BLE Tag is from a smartphone, PiBeacon could send out hello and goodbye messages to your guest.
Thanks
