Anyone tried putting Sonoff into the light switches?
Say I wanted to use one of the on/off light switch to control a few lights in the living room wirelessly. Initially, I just switch it on/off with my fingers, can I splice the Sonoff into the switch to control wirelessly? |

Don't think you can fit the sonoff into the wall switch and you will need a neutral lead Say I wanted to use one of the on/off light switch to control a few lights in the living room wirelessly. Initially, I just switch it on/off with my fingers, can I splice the Sonoff into the switch to control wirelessly? You can try installing it above your plaster ceiling to control a few lights |

No worries, totally new house from ground up so that's why asking first. Was thinking of putting the Sonoff into a light switch box (the ones without the on/off switches) next to the real light switches.

New house easy to do. |
