I'm interested. As you can see in this thread I recently installed a SmartHome device  for my computer, but I also have a couple big UPSs where the TV & other home theater components reside. I image 2 5A devices would serve well there.

You maybe interested in looking at the XTB-F10 and XTB-F15.
To see how they where assembled.
If Jeff decides to get a limited run of the boards you can then get your own parts for.

Here are the assembly notes for the XTB-F10:  https://jvde.us/xtb/xtb-f10_assembly.htm

We have small quantity of the components available too, but not the case.

Contact me directly to reserve boards and components.  I should be placing the order within the next couple of weeks - waiting on a quote for a different factory assembled board that has been on hold almost a year waiting for back ordered voltage regulators.

I  received the CM15A replacement. Followed the Owner's Manual Hardware Setup section carefully. Only skipped steps 2, 3, & 4 because I already had the AHP app installed.

The new CM15A works perfectly! The simulated switch in AHP turns my desk lamp on and off, schedules for all lights in the house and yard work, and the 3-button wall mounted switches work.

A remaining question in my mind is whether the returned CM15A was (a) bad from the factory, or was (b) it was OK but had not been set it up correctly. My guess is (a).
 However, there is one difference in the way I had carried out the setup instructions: As per the Owner's Manual, I installed the batteries after connecting to the computer & plugging it into the mains. I did not do it that way while setting up previous one (the "bad" one) a few weeks ago.

Other than that I'm ready to draw a line under it, as the Brits say, and move on.

Many thanks to those who have helped me along the way.

I would say (A).
The older through hole 3 board. CM15A didn't have that in the manual. That is if my old memory is right.
It also should run with no batteries installed.
Now that the CM15A is on one board and has surface mounted parts. Things maybe different.
