I will look into them, I would have no problem with giving it a shot to flash them. Still so much to learn around hear.
edit. Looked into that SONOFF stuff gets me thinking off all the other stuff i can do as well. Why must I (we) try and make the simple task of hitting a light switch so complicated?
If i remember right the box is between 2 studs and there would not be room to put in a tri box. If only i had a crystal ball 10 years ago
There are solutions, but yeah, it can get costly, especially in Canada. You need to be extra diligent to find the deals and good products that are certified.
If I were you, I would jump on that Caseta Pro bridge that @SmartHomePrimer linked to. That is a phenomenally good price. Tempted to buy it myself as a spare.
I want a 3-gang Nue to try as idiot lights. AU/NZ zigbee should work fine in the US. I figure one will show up on Ebay soon enough. I try to stay away from Aliexpress.
Hello Greglsh, I just noticed you mention to be using some 2/3 gang Wall switches. Yesterday I reflashed all my devices with Tasmota, and made them work perfectly.
But when I installed them into Hubitat, then I realized that I don´t "see" the two or three buttons when I try to include any of my 2 or 3 gang switches into a Dashboard. I just see a single switch that controls only one of the switches in the wall switch, but I don´t see 2 or 3 buttons that those switches have.
If you access the devide via url with the IP address, into Tasmota, they show one, two or three buttons working perfectly from the Tasmota interface.
Am I doing something wrong to make them be recognized by Hubitat as a one, two or three switch?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi @rgr
What drivers are you using? I make use of @markus fantastic drivers. These are the universal parent drivers. What this does is it creates the child devices automatically after a few seconds to a minute. Each child is a gang on the switch, so you have the parent driver, then on a 3 gang you will have 3 child devices under the parent. I am on Tasmota for HE 8.3.1. Do you use the Tasmota device handler app? This is what I used to add all my Sonoff devices into HE.
I have those switches, and I'm about to try it out (New in HE in the migration process from ST)... I'll let you know... (i had them configured on my Phillips Hue HUB but they are not recognized when try to imported them.. So... I'm going to try it on Zigbee and let you know...
First detected as a Generic Zigbee device, then I change the type to Nue Zigbee Switch and the other 2 gangs appear, but after that you can't change the name of the buttons...
I installed also the " Zigbee - Generic Device Toolbox" driver... That it may or not help to make it work....
Here at my home all of my switches are currently from Zemismart ZigBee, some of them are touch and some has physical buttons.
As my Hubitat hasn't arrived yet (it should arrive this week) I still haven't been able to test the integration, but I'm following it here and I see that some of us already had positive results with these switches.
I was wondering if you have already used two synchronized switches to control the same lamp.
If so, is it easy to do? I still don't know much about the Hubitat system. In Smartthings there is a SmartAPP called Smart Light that we can do this easily, configuring as mirror switches.
