The Smartest House [thesmartesthouse.com] has select Z-Wave Switches on sale listed below. Shipping is free on order of $75+, otherwise starts at $5.95.
Example Deals:
I have used the ZEN30 double switches in several applications, and the features are great. You can connect two loads to a single 1 gang switch (fan + light, two lights, etc) or disable one/both of the outputs, and control smart lights or other automatons. In Home Assistant at least, you can expose ALL of the scenes and button combos, so possible to trigger 15 different actions from a single switch. (Single, double, quadruple, and quintuple taps, along with hold, and release on each of the three buttons.) Only downside I have found is that they require special wiring for 3- and 4- way light setups.
The on/off ZEN26 and dimmer ZEN27 switches lack the second load connection, but enable easy 3- and 4-way light setups, and still expose all of the multi-tap options. ('Only' ten options since they have two physical buttons.) You can still disable the hardware switching and control smart bulbs.
The ZEN34 is just a wall-mounted Z-Wave remote. It doesn't connect to any wiring, but is an easy way to add smart-bulb or scene controls if you don't already have an existing in-wall switch available where you want it.

Agree about S2 if you're just using the included drivers, but the Zooz Advanced Drivers are working great with S2 on my C7. I had the same issue until I switched drivers.

Oh nice. I don't think the security is needed in a switch? I'm going to review that driver though, thanks!
Nope, it's not needed -- or at least I don't need it or care. But I was having so many issues that as long as I was switching to the new drivers, I decided to re-add the switches with S2 just because.
ZEN77 has S2 in title but both have S2 security said in the description.

The Zen*2 models use a triac dimmer circuits (ie, problematic dimming for older LED lights), and require special wiring for a 3- or 4- way setup, but can handle more power than a Zen*7. (150W LED / 500W Incandescent)
A Zen*7 uses a MOSFET dimmer circuit, and can be used as drop-in replacements for traditional 3- and 4- way lighting setups, but can't handle as much power as the Zen*2. (100W LED / 300W Incandescent)
