VFAQ: Lighting Control Options for UK SmartThings

There are many forum discussions of possible lighting control options for the UK. Before we get too theoretical, I just wanted to do a quick recap of the options that are available right now for those in the UK. 1) Choose one of the inside-the-wall micro relays from the official compatibility list and have it installed on the circuit where there is a third wire. Even if there isn’t a third wire in the switchbox itself, there’s still one on the circuit somewhere. It may be at the ceiling fitting, it may be somewhere else in the wall, but it is there. https://www.smartthings.com/uk/compatible-products [image] If you want to add a new faceplate to create a push button “momentary switch,” you can modify many switches to work with the in wall relay.

Search in the forum for Lightwave or Energenie for more information.

As far as I can remember most of the switches and sockerts are one way only, so if someone switches it on at the wall SmartThings does not know that its status has changed. I am hoping that the LightwaveRF Gen 2 switches and sockets that are supposed have 2 way status, though only supported for Apple Home Kit at present

Yes, that’s correct. I have lights switches and outlets.
Lightwave does not know that state either.
Stateless switches I’m afraid.
It can have its advantages though!!!
