Rhizzlebop:
I am not a programmer, and I’d just like to install the multibutton, add it to smart things, and then add lights (with dim %) to each button on the multibutton.
P
What is the simplest controller/button to do this with? I wanted hard wired, but if a wireless battery one is plain easier to use, I’ll go with that.
I really just don’t want to fiddle, and want it to work reliably. Even if its a little pricier.
Help and suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
From your initial description, I would go with the battery powered remotec 90. It’s very reliable, very easy to use with SmartThings, under $50. Eight main buttons and each button can be tapped, double tapped, or long-held so you have 24 total options. Very popular in the community.
Remotec ZRC-90 Scene Master - Button Device Supporting 24 Unique Button Commands
This is a very small button device that has a contemporary look and is wall mountable. With the included mounting bracket you can pull it off of the wall and use it like a remote.

Button Commands:
Buttons on this device support 3 modes. Pressed, held, and double pressed. When using the device in SmartApps such as Rule Machine, you would use the functionality of button 1 - 8 like normal. Configure triggers on Button 1 pushed, and Button 1 held, etc. But then you can also configure buttons 9 - 16 in Rule Machine as follows:
Physical Button Double Pressed & Resulting Button Number
1 = 9
2 = 10
3 = 11
4 = 12
5 = 13
6 = 14
7 = 15
8 = 16
