Aqara Zigbee Wireless Mini Switch,Compatible with Apple HomeKit,Google Home,Alexa,Requires Aqara Hub,Versatile 3-Way Control Button for Smart Home Devices,Works with IFTTT

I've tried out several different types of buttons from many companies including the likes of IKEA and a few other companies from Amazon and they all suck compared to these. Their main issue is that they all "sleep" to try and save power so if you don't use them regularly, like multiple times a day, they'll go to sleep and you'll have to hit them twice to get a button to register. These just work. I have a button next to my front door that I have set up to turn all my lights and my TV off so I can just hit one button on my way out. I use this naturally about once a day. All the other buttons I've tried you have to hit twice. These just work like you expect. Even "worse" I have a button at my desk that turns some task lighting on at my desk if I want to get lots of light on whatever I'm working on, that button can sit idle for days or up to a week sometimes, it always just works.Unlike the listing says these are compatible with Home Assistant, you don't HAVE to use their hub. They're very simple to set up in home assistant, fairly sturdy so far I haven't had any of them fail yet. No disconnects or any issues after getting them set up. They can be a little fiddly to get connected in Home Assistant but I think that's just my setup.They're a nice size, easy to push the button, they don't look really cool or anything but in the same aspect the don't stand out either.

Paired right up to my M3 hub and integrated easily into Home Assistant. 3D printed a wall mount and was all set. Great value.

The switch is made of a high-quality and durable material that is able to withstand frequent use. It is also very easy to install and use, requiring only the AQARA HUB and a few simple steps to set up.One of the standout features of the mini switch is its versatility. The switch is able to control a variety of smart home devices, including lights, fans, and appliances.

It has a compact and discreet design that is easy to install and blends in well with most home decor. The switch is also very easy to use, with a simple and straightforward process for controlling your devices.Overall, I recommend the switch. It is a high-quality and convenient choice that is perfect for controlling your smart home devices. The versatility and compatibility are great added bonuses, making it a reliable and practical choice for anyone.

Price was high, but this thing still has battery after more than a year. We are all happy as clams with this one of a kind super unique ultra specific button gizmo. Simply could not be less happy than I am now.Thanks much for amazing push button, aqua team! AI rating: excellent with home assistant, bland without.

Works great with Homey Pro! No extra hub needed!

I do not like the fact that they force you to purchase the hub for this device to work. Certain Alexa devices have built-in zigbee hubs. Now they do connect to the built-in hub on Alexa but have no functionality. I think that is completely unacceptable. Definitely will be searching for another company that allows me to connect directly to my hub without having to purchase the company's hub. Very disappointing because the product actually looked very good quality.

The device works with SmartThings it's just a pain to do. All of the KBs written are for the old SmartThings; however, I believe the solution that got mine working was the following drivers by searching Google for "Smartthings Channel obmaz" -> the first thing that shows up should be his GitHub -> From within Github you will see a URL halfway down the page that states "You can enroll the channel and install edge drivers by using invitation URL" -> From here you click the Available Drivers Icon -> wait a minute or so for the page to load -> Click Install the driver titled "zigbee-aqara-button" -> This is where the unknown nightmare of pairing starts... I believe the issue is first you need to wait a few minutes for the driver to load to your SmartThings. From the Smart Things app click the Plus button, Click Add Device, Click Searching for Devices -> From here, hold down the tiny button at the top for roughly 3 seconds the light will flash blue then let go of the tiny button, and every one thousand and one press the button and promptly let go and repeat until the device shows up. If the searching for devices times out, go back to the room where you started to add the device and make sure that the device didn't just show up. I hope this helps! Note: If you continue holding down the tiny button for too long, you will just keep resetting the device versus every one second keeping the device alive. Also, make sure that you are close to the SmartThings Hub at least 15 feet from it, and are connected to the same Wifi Network as the hub!
