⚡ Key Features
- Matter Protocol (over WiFi) — native integration with Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Home Assistant, and SmartThings; no hub required, no cloud lock-in
- Dual Independent Channels — control two separate loads from one module; perfect for 2-gang switch plates controlling two lights or a light + fan
- 10A per Gang, 16A Total — handles resistive loads up to 10A per channel (2,300W each at 230V) with a combined maximum of 16A
- Ultra-Compact (39 × 39 × 18 mm) — fits inside EU standard 60-type junction boxes and most wall-mounted switch boxes (minimum 60 mm depth)
- ESP32-C3 Chip — efficient single-core RISC-V processor optimised for Matter and WiFi connectivity
- Detach Relay Mode — physical switch operates independently from relay output; use the wall switch as a smart scene trigger while keeping loads powered
- External Switch Support — connects to existing wall switches for hybrid smart + manual control
- Safety Protections — overheat protection, surge protection, overload safeguards, and flame-retardant PC V-0 housing
- Power-On State Options — configurable to resume last state, default ON, or default OFF after power outage
- Neutral Wire Required — requires N line for installation
