They connect to your phone via bluetooth, work with IFTTT very well. I have one by my bedside to control my Hue Lights as well as a few others. They are currently developing a Hub to allow the buttons to work without the phone. I have created my own hub using a Raspberry Pi3 but that’s advanced and was difficult to do.

FAQ: Full list of buttons and remotes confirmed to work with SmartThings [Not all devices listed work with the 2020 Platform]

I’d like to know which buttons and remotes are currently supported or might be supported in the future. Ideally, I’d like to find something similar to the following: http://www.evolvecontrols.com/devices/control-devices/glass-series Though alternatively just a simple nice-looking button which actually works unlike this Aeon according to Amazon reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Touch-Panel-Button-Switch-AL-001/dp/B00GL6B4GG/ref=sr_1_3?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1421468320&sr=1-3&keywords=aeon+button There is an Aeon Key Fob as well, but it doesn’t seem to be very durable or stylish: What else is available?

I don’t like the Fibaro Buttons because they have a major design flaw that makes them stop working after a small amount of usage. I have reported this issue to the manufacturer and have been told they are working on a redesign to address the flaw, I am supposed to get a test copy of the device when they are released so I will report back if the new design has addressed the issue or not.

I recently purchased this button which is actually 4 buttons. I like it a lot and it has been working very well for me.

[OBSOLETE] Aeon WallMote Dual & Quad - 2 & 4 Button

[image] [image] [image] Update: Make sure your device has firmware 1.7 as it seems versions below that are a little buggy. Very cool device. Wall mountable and looks great. Micro USB rechargeable with ability to configure: Color Touch Sound Touch Vibration When making configuration changes you can either a) wait for the device to wake up and have the changes sync over. The wake up interval for this device is 24 hours so if you are the impatient type you can b) press the button on the back for a few seconds. This will wake the device up and the lights on the front will blink orange. At this point the controller will send over its configuration changes. Edit: Forgot to mention that each button supports push and held. So the dual actually has 4 possible button presses and the quad ha…

Aeotech makes great devices. I have their minimote which has 4 buttons and it works great. They make a panic button which seems perfect for what you are looking for. I don’t own one and have never tested. So can’t really say but I would bet they work well.
