(US Only) The Cooper 9500 is a battery-operated wall switch which looks like a wall switch. It’s intended for use as a dimmer, but that feature is not compatible with smartthings at this time. There are several different device handlers available for in the community.
Any one know if the RF9500 works with ST?
I’m thinking about getting this in place of an existing wall switch (no neutral) and placing a zwave relay module near the lamp in the ceiling to control it.
I’ve also been hearing that Aeon Labs is working on a battery operated switch, but it’s taking awhile (I’m sure theirs will be much fancier).
If this works, I may just jump on it since westwayelectricsupply.com has it on sale for more than half price off (shhh… 10% off ACADEMIC10).
If this solves my no neutral issue, I’m going to be ecstatic!
It is available in two styles and several colors:
The following smartapp is popular with this device:
Do you have smart lights like LIFX that you want to have in a 2-way, 3-way, 4-way, N-way dimmable setup with a physical dimmers without the lights losing wifi because you turned them off?
Toggimmer is a SmartApp designed to work with wireless switches like the Cooper RF9500 (link to device handler below) that operates wirelessly only and are not wired into your lights. Toggimmer allows you to select 1 to many dimmers and control 1 to many dimmable lights without having to worry about keeping these dimmers in sync with each other or the lights.
You can 100% replicate the functionality of this SmartApp with something like CoRE. The reason for this apps existance is that I felt something as powerful as CoRE was overkill for this kind of function. Honestly I think I get slightly better respo…
