Anyone bought aqara switch at malaysia here? Previously bought from taobao. Tested and it's nice so wanna buy more. Wondering any store or online store at malaysia selling?

And anyone know if we need to buy the one with neutral line or not? Mine previously is no neutral line. But heard that if those 20A switch like aircond switch need to use aqara switch which got neutral line. Is it true?

Anyone know if aqara switch can be use to replace autogate switch? I bought few aqara switch to change my current lighting switch. And my technician told me it is not suitable to replace autogate switch. Also, he said aqara switch not suitable for those switch that have 2 way open like the staircase light which ground floor and first floor can both control the light open.

Is that true? I wanna change my autogate switch so that I can wireless control the open and off for my autogate.

He is right, autogate cannot
As for 2 way switching, he is also correct, Aqara switch is not the same as a 2 way switch but it can be done. One side you use the wired switch, the other side you use a wireless one. It’s not only 2 way but multi-way if you want 😁
See diagram

Which means that there will be no way aqara switch can be use as auto gate switch?

Anyone have any idea how to remote control the autogate? Previously I was thinking to use aqara switch to remote control the autogate open and close. But technician told me aqara switch is not able to do so due to some limitation (I dont know what limitation). Something like the autogate switch is different from normal switch. Anyone know how to do can teach?

Just use DHCP as one connection on 2nd one, connect to any lan port on primary. Use different subnet for 2nd.. And setup vpn as normally.

Hand itchy house guest will try to peel it off everytime they come by😆😆

Thats what i am doing now, i put the sensor in a plastic box and use hot glue to seal it. Its still working now even though i can see some condensation in the box, but TBH, its an eye sore everytime i getting in or out the house.

However, i find if very convenient now that everytime i open yhe gate my porch main lights are switched on. No more worrying that i reverse park my car into something🤣🤣

Edit: my next project would be to modify a door sensor and tap signal from the autogate mainboard. Waiting for a relay and will update the project once completed.

Anyone looking for a xiaoAI mini? Open to sell / trade with Aqara stuff / Google home stuff. Klang valley area or Jakarta.

I can't stand it anymore, getting annoyed with Mandarin.

You want to trade the xiaoai mini with aqara stuff? Or aqara stuff also want to trade off?

Hi guys. Any idea how to link the cassette aircond into Home Assistant and HomeKit? My cassette aircond is Acson brand, and non Wi-Fi version. If use those IR control, it will send signal to turn on and off aircond, but can’t know the status.

Connect esp ir remote to the ir receiver of your ac.
Flash tasmota-ir firmware on it, install tasmota-irhvac hacs on ha
The status gets updated even when the physical remote is used instead

I tried esphome, but it didn’t detect my mitsubishi ac so i switched to tasmota
