At home; connected it all and held the reset pin for a few seconds; it got instantly picked up by the ST hub.
Responds instant (also when pushing the button physically)
Great for when a “Not so tech inclined” family member wants to control devices with an on/off switch. They can still do so; but there will always be power on the switch for it to be turned on/off with routines. Also able to be wall/surface mounted (they sadly did not have these brackets in stock). I like how you can make the system “Suited” for your needs. They even have USB sockets that you can use in the setup (i know some Smarthome devices use this for power… like the Switchbot Hub)
@Mariano_Colmenarejo has added this device to his “Switch mc” Edge driver. You should check that out to make the device future proof. Driver has cool features included what you might find interesting.
It will work but you have to set manually how much is the energy consumption of your device connected to the power strip. Lets say you have 8w led bulb connected then add 8 watts from the settings of the driver and it will will show consumption based on that. Askvader switch doesn’t have energy consumption built to it. Mariano just added that capability to his driver as a “virtual” capability. I’m not sure if that is the right way to phrase it but hopefully you get what I mean.
Thanks, but In this there is a combination of the needs requests, ideas and test of various users as @milandjurovic71, @Alwas and others… , in which I just try to implement them to the best of my ability.
Teamwork always gives good results!!!
Sorry, I forgot to thank you @nayelyz for helping me, helping us whenever I’ve asked.
Also to @erickv, who is no longer in the official team, but is still here
