QUOTE(hungrygodzilla @ May 14 2020, 12:22 PM) Nice to know that they are responsive. Now just need to wait for house to be ready, of coz that depend on the MCO. If switch point not done yet can consider using this because deeper than those they are selling in our local electrical shop so easier to install smart switches. Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(iamsobloodysick @ May 14 2020, 01:19 PM) Can you please share the seller link? My china smart switch supplier sent it to me. You can try search in Taobao but it only fits the China plug screws which has larger thread. It's very cheap if you sent via Sea.

QUOTE(razr_sped @ May 30 2020, 09:06 AM) my house already had old style cctv buit in, those using coaxial which im not keen to rewired it with PoE IP cable, there for will adding the G2H as extra as i can slot it as additional lens in the (locked) cctv casing. 2.4ghz wifi is ok, though not as big mine still have to covered 36oosqft but only 2 levels so that is alright. it was an issue earlier due to signal angle good tip on homepod, will have a lookout for it mind sharing how the switch module connect? i believe the terncy switch module is similar to the aqara wireless relay switch module, if so then perhaps i'll hook it as those are homekit certified too There is EOC(Ethernet over coaxial) with POE available to replace analog to ipc. Been using more than 2 years no issue. Can even daisy chain to add in up to 7 ipc but max I tested was 4 only.

QUOTE(iamsobloodysick @ Jun 7 2020, 12:29 AM) I've changed my mind. Terncy switches look nice but I want consistent look and feel. I'm probably going for Simon switches / power sockets + Shelly relays. For 20A load I'm thinking about using contactors i.e. switch -> relay -> contactor -> load. If you want consistency there are many types of 16/20A Smart Switches that matches those normal smart switch. Why go through the hassle of Shelly relays and "switch -> relay -> contactor -> load" for high amp switches.

QUOTE(jaaway @ Oct 22 2020, 10:00 PM) Hi all, anyone managed to get Home Assistant or Alexa working now with Terncy ? I do not use homekit, but interested to go the Terncy route. Hope to hear from some of you. If using Alexa why need pay the extra price for Terncy?

QUOTE(jaaway @ Oct 23 2020, 11:17 AM) I thought Terncy switches, hubs are better built as mentioned by TS. And we can choose either homekit, google assistant or Alexa as voice control? May i know what you mean & what switches you recommend to work with Alexa? Terncy price is high due to Apple's licensing. If you prefer Alexa join us here:- Read through the whole thread

QUOTE(knuxed @ Jan 6 2021, 12:26 AM) is it possible to retrofit a neutral wire onto a house? If you have 3 pin socket or airco/heater switch nearby still possible but if you are not doing any renovation might be a bit messy.

QUOTE(celciuz @ Mar 24 2021, 09:45 PM) This Terncy design a bit unique... weather 1 gang or 4 gang, it comes with 4 buttons which you program to do some actions. You can buy 4 Gang Tuya and only used 1 gang & the other 3 gang can also be pair for other uses, nothing special about this feature. This post has been edited by adamw: Mar 24 2021, 11:32 PM

QUOTE(celciuz @ Mar 25 2021, 09:11 AM) I see, thanks for the info. Did a quick google for it, aiya I don’t like the design unfortunately but carries an attractive price tag 😆 The Tuya able to do like double tap and long press as alternative action? Not on the smart switch, only their remote switch have this triple action.
