QUOTE(zzzhhhzzz @ Nov 6 2018, 03:43 PM) Bro idoblu. Since u have a mixture of xiaomi and sonofff switches.. may i know how you deal with those 20amps switches (for aircond ovens etc) ? I don really need smart control on those switches but will like something that can blend in well with those glass panel smart switches as they are just next to each other All my 20amps switches, I use what was given by developer, which are non smart Schneider Vivace They are always On anyway I also don’t have any Sonoff Wall switches. Only Sonoff basics and smart plugs This post has been edited by idoblu: Nov 6 2018, 05:51 PM |

Should be able to handle 1HP air-con and 3kW water heater. |

Hello guys, I am considering the Mi smart home system but I think one gateway may not be enough to cover the required area:
1. I suppose we can have multiple gateways in one system right, but must these gateways be in the same wifi network? (my current wifi setup is different floor different wifi) 2. is getting zigbee repeater better option? |

Two way means two switches controlling the same lights?If yes, then for Xiaomi just connect one wired Wall Switch on one end. The other end use a wireless wall switch. Xiaomi is actually multi-way |

QUOTE(idoblu @ Nov 7 2018, 07:45 PM) Like this picture right ? so are you suggesting that i just ignore the other "com" wire (the brown wire in the picture), connect the live wire to L in xiaomi switch, the grey wire to L1, then on the second switch part just remove the switch, short the grey wire directly to the load and then use a wireless switch as the second switch ? |
