Super happy with my remotes and I have both the older model as well as this newer one. I finally replaced one of the batteries and found out that the older models use CR2450, while these newer ones are CR2032.

I have one of these, and was expecting it to be annoying to have to change batteries on it a bunch. I cannot remember the last time I've had to, it's been like 3 years. In for another!

FYI this is compatible with Zigbee2MQTT for those that don't want to buy the bridge: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/device...92621.html

Can you use one switch to control multiple lights in different rooms but not all at the same time?

I'm assuming the remotes technically don't require HUE light bulbs right? My smart switches are connected to Alexa. I could theoretically connect the remote to my Alexa to turn my switches on and off.

Is this correct? I have smart dimmer switches and trying to talk myself into buying the remotes lol.

Would rather use this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...=UTF8&th=1 no bridge or battery needed and works with Alexa. Has dimming capability.

"Frequently returned item

cant imagine why, lol.

You gotta have some pretty shitty wifi if these switches would 'crowd' it. I have well over 100 smart devices on my network and have no issues. Time to upgrade your fossil equipment...

I've invested in the IKEA smart home system. So, I'm curious if this dimmer switch works with the IKEA hub and smart bulb since they are also on Zigbee?

Hi which version of home assistant are you using? Yellow/green? I want to buy a version which Integrates with HUE
Home Assistant is FREE and its software that you run on some form of a computer.
For me its running as a virtual machine on one of my servers, but you can run it on a Raspberry Pi, NUC, a laptop, etc.

The average person may not notice much of a performance penalty with the kinds of tasks they do on wifi but it has pretty much nothing to do with the quality of someones "equipment" when it comes to wifi conjestion.

Even a $1500 enterprise access point suffers the same latency and airtime fairness issues because its inherent in the technology not the equpment.

Newer itterations of Wifi like Wifi6e and Wifi7 have made big changes to help with this, but that only matters if your using a Wifi6e or Wifi7 device and all these smart home devices are 2.4ghz using older generations of Wifi.

Going Wifi is one of worst way to have a large home of smart devices even if it can be made to work very well.

Other prodocols are more stable, use less battery, etc.

The only thing you can really do to "fix" conjestion issues is the exact same thing we do in the enterprise, have multiple access points and load balance between them.

The only time equipment age or capability comes into play is if its so old and cheap that its running out of hardware resources trying to handle the load.

As a network engineer, I have never seen that happen in a home before only in a poorly configured enterprise environment.

Please refrain from telling anyone "whats what" until you actually know what your talking about.

No idea why you got downvoted, the product you linked is leagues, LEAGUES, better than this dumpster fire of a switch. Who wants to use a remote when you can just say 'Alexa turn the light on/off' or 'Alexa, set the light to 40%'. I have this switch, along with easily over 20 others throughout my home from Kasa and treat life (no idea why these two words together are seen as a url? lol), and would not switch them for anything, because being able to control everything with my voice and/or Alexa routine, is just magic.
As someone with a lot of both devices, they are not the same thing.
One is a physical in wall switch that you must hard wire to replace a regular switch.

I have a motion one in the laundry, a dimmer in the kitchen, dimmer in the dining room, and a couple of regular ones in the house for like the master bedroom closet.

Then I have Hue switches that can control those switches remotely from different locations, and 8 million other devices.

So these Hue switches also control my WLED leds in the home theater, and my back patio, and my Sonoff switches for my back patio fans, change colors or presets on different lights, Etc.

The entire point of the Hue swtiches is wireless, remote, and you use program logic to tell it what to do and how.

The TP link is hardwired and dedicated to one circut and only has one function a relay to turn something on/off.

I'd say your comparing apples to oranges, but I think even that is too much credit because in this case I don't even think both are fruit.

I'll attach a couple of screenshots showing some of the automation I use these for.

I have it starting a setting to automatically dim the lights and match the color tempature of the sunset (circadian rythm) turn on my bar lights, some strange off brand lights, etc.

I can literally use one of thse as a remote to turn on my theater setup so the AVR, Projector, Amps, Etc.

This will only work with other hue products, is that right? I don't see any specific wording saying it's exclusive but trying to make sure

Basically out of the box it will work with anything that would be in the Hue App on your phone.
With tinkering they work with anything.

I have a light switch downstairs that controls the light upstairs (fixed ceiling light, not bulb). I hate it because to turn the light off so you can go to bed, you have to walk downstairs, flip the switch, and walk back upstairs in the dark.

Would this integrate at all in any way to save that trouble?
