ERIA AduroSmart Smart Wireless dimming (Wireless dimmer)

These cost a bit less than the Hue Dimmer and can be used for a similar purpose if you're willing to TouchLink them. I prefer to use them with my Zigbee hub, Hubitat, for a variety of more powerful purposes. (Hubitat supports these devices natively; if you're using a different Zigbee HA hub like SmartThings, don't expect it to work unless they have a driver/device handler for it or if it's on their whitelist; it should work with Zigbee LL as described above).Unlike the Hue Dimmer, these fit in a standard decorator plate, which besides the price is their main advantage (if you only want to use them on Hue, the app doesn't "see" them so you won't be able to, for example, cycle between scenes with multiple presses, unless there's a way to set that up that I don't know about, so the Hue Dimmer may be more functional if you value that). They are arguably a bit better-looking, too. Both only come in white, and both also come with their own mounting plate (for on-the-wall or anywhere installation), but again, the Eria can be mounted in any decorator plate (they even include wire nuts if you want to replace an existing switch with it).My only issue is that it takes a second or two after holding the "up" or "down" buttons for it to send a "held" event (release any quicker and you'll just get a "pushed" event). Some of this could be specific to my hub, Hubitat, but I imagine it's only interpreting what the device itself sends. In any case this means that if you want to configure it to start dimming when the button is held and stop dimming when it's released (emulating what you'd expect), you'll have to hold it down for a while before it will even start. This can mostly be worked around by using "pushed" to just step the brightness up/down by a specific level, but I still wish the "held" delay was a bit less.

Let me clear something up first: the “No hub required” means that if you don’t connect these devices to a smart home hub (NOT a voice assistant like Alexa, a smart home hub), they can still work with each other… but that’s it. They’re not Bluetooth, which is how Sengled “no hub” bulbs connect to Alexa. You can control these with Alexa if you pair them with a smart home hub that Alexa can talk to. You also don’t have to use the switch & bulb together if you use them with a hub. I control a different light with the remote but I still used the included bulb in a different room.I just bought an older house with odd light switch placements (the kitchen light switch is in the dining room… wha??) so I wanted to use these to put a switch in a more expected & reasonable place. I just double-side taped it to the wall and BOOM, problem solved. While it is true with the way Smartthings works you have to assign the dimmer buttons a static value (like 25% and 75% for example) instead of using them like a traditional gradual press-and-hold dimmer, I am still overall so pleased I came back to get another one for the bathroom light switch that’s inexplicably across the room from the door. I’m also glad whoever wired this house is probably retired now.

I bough this because it is supposed to be Decora style size. When installed into a panel switch panel with multiple switches, this one sticks out because the corners are too rounded. I don't understand why they would fall short here. This switch would be purchased by MANY DIY home automation fans if it would fit/match regular multi gang switch panel/face plates. Instead the overly round corners and overall thickness make it look cheap.It can only be used with the faceplate that is provided for proper fit around the edge of buttons. BUT that faceplate does not sit flush against the wall.I ended up purchasing a Lutron Pico and routing it through logic /Vera setup to control zwave device.The IDEA is really good and this is something that is lacking int the market. I am forced to find alternatives because I cant stand the cheap look when integrated into a panel.
