Aeotec Pico Switches (ZGA002 and ZGA003) - any drivers?

Has anyone tried using the Aeotec Zigbee Pico Switch relays (ZGA002 and/or ZGA003) on a C-8?

And is there any plan to support these with a built in driver?

I expect (but can’t confirm) these would work with a generic zigbee switch driver, at least for basic on/off control.

Yup.

And the generic zigbee multi-endpoint switch for the dual relay version.

any experience yet with C-8, and with support for power monitoring?

Ok, so I've successfully added a ZGA002 to my C8 hub. Took a few attempts, but this is what I did.

  • Add Device and Find by Device Type. Select Switch.

  • Choose Generic/Other

  • Select Generic Zigbee Switch

  • Click Start Pairing

  • On the Aeotec Pico, push the action switch twice - it's a pretty quick double click

  • Once the device is initialised and you've entered the name/location/etc, go to the device settings page. I found the Device Type had defaulted to "Device", so I had to change that to "Generic Zigbee Switch".

There's no power information, but you can at least control the switch. I would say that it's noticeably faster than the equivalent z-wave relay switches I have. Almost no delay at all when switching the relay on/off via hubitat.

I'll obtain a ZGA003 and see if the multi-point generic zigbee driver works.

ZGA003 seems to work with the generic zigbee multi-point switch driver as well. It took several attempts to get the relay to bind to the hubitat (i.e. a couple of factory reset cycles - note that after factory resetting, I disconnected the power from the device).

Took me a while to figure out how to configure the driver to expose the two new endpoints, but refreshing the device info page after changing the driver type is key.

Good evening! after my Aeotec nano stopped working ive got one of these arriving from Amazon tomorrow. Did anyone figure out a way of getting power monitoring working with this device?

Thanks

ZGA002 power monitoring and switch seems to work using the "Generic Zigbee Outlet" driver.

After changing the driver, it should show in the device.

Also shows in logs if you turn on auto power reporting.
