Hi, looking for advice as I am new to these smart home stuffs. currently renovating the house. I found some smart switch in Shopee. some mentioned required neutral and some is no-neutral.
for no-neutral the diagram shows I need a capacitor and neutral i need a neutral wire.
what is the difference and which is more recommended?

QUOTE(lucaswjk @ Nov 11 2025, 11:52 PM) i believe the no neutral no capacitor working concepts, it still use capacitor internally as mini battery. also in one of the moes switch, it listed this switch cannot be use on DC fans and no one comment on light flicker issue yet Thanks for the reply. I am only planning to get some simple zigbee smart switch which i can use to control some light switch and put timer. Aqara seems very premium and higher priced which only works with aqara hub. I am looking at some others those no neutral & no capacitor switches. there are alot brand in Shopee. Smartrul and Mogi, I assume are these cheaper "lower" quality ones? how about brand like eva, eardatek or moes? This post has been edited by richtrons: Yesterday, 10:32 AM
