🔧 Installation

🛠️ DIY Installation

What you'll need:

  • Basic electrical knowledge and experience
  • Neutral wire in your wall box (required)
  • Zigbee hub/coordinator already set up
  • Standard tools: screwdriver & wire strippers
  • 15-20 minutes installation time

The MINI-ZBDIM fits behind your existing wall switch — completely hidden. It installs in standard South African wall boxes (60mm, 86mm, 120mm). Terminals are clearly marked for straightforward wiring.

⚠️ Safety First: Always turn off power at your DB board before installation. An MCB or RCBO rated at 2A must be installed before the MINI-ZBDIM. For single-phase use only (220-240V). If you're not confident with electrical work, consult a qualified electrician.
💡 After installation: Run the built-in auto-calibration (long-press button for 10 seconds, or via eWeLink app) for smooth, flicker-free dimming matched to your specific bulbs.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work with South African power (220-240V)?
Yes! The MINI-ZBDIM is rated for 220-240V AC at 50/60Hz, which is the South African electrical standard.
Do I need a Zigbee hub?
Yes! This is a Zigbee device — it does not connect to WiFi directly. You need a Zigbee coordinator or hub. For Home Assistant, use the Dongle Max or Dongle Lite MG21. For eWeLink app, use the ZB Bridge-P.
What's the difference between this and the MINI-DIM (WiFi/Matter)?
This model (MINI-ZBDIM) uses Zigbee 3.0 — requires a hub, works offline, mesh network routing, ideal for Home Assistant users. The MINI-DIM uses Matter over WiFi — connects directly to your router, no hub needed, works with Apple Home/Google/Alexa natively. Same dimming specs (200VA LED / 400W halogen). Choose Zigbee for local control and Home Assistant; choose Matter/WiFi for easier setup with mainstream platforms.
Does it need a neutral wire?
Yes, the MINI-ZBDIM requires a neutral wire. Most SA homes built after 2000 have neutral wires. If unsure, have an electrician check before purchasing.
Will this work with my LED downlights?
Most likely yes! This dimmer supports up to 200VA of dimmable LED loads using trailing-edge dimming. Make sure your LEDs are specifically marked "dimmable". After installation, run the auto-calibration (long-press button 10 seconds) for smooth, flicker-free performance.
Does it work with Home Assistant?
Absolutely! This is perfect for Home Assistant. Pair it using ZHA (built-in, auto-discovery) or Zigbee2MQTT (advanced features). You'll get full local control, dimming, power monitoring, automations, and custom dashboards — all without any cloud.
Does it extend my Zigbee network?
Yes! The MINI-ZBDIM acts as a Zigbee router when powered. It relays signals to other Zigbee devices, strengthening coverage and eliminating dead zones. The more Zigbee routers you have, the stronger your mesh network.
Does it work during load shedding?
Yes — if your Zigbee hub and the dimmer both have power (UPS/inverter). Unlike WiFi devices that lose connection during outages, the Zigbee mesh operates independently of your internet connection.
Can I use this without internet?
Yes! That's one of the biggest benefits of Zigbee. Once paired with Home Assistant or another local coordinator, the MINI-ZBDIM works entirely offline. No internet needed for day-to-day operation.
