Control LED with RFXtrx433 USB 433.92MHz

Post by willie-p »

At home I've a couple of LED strips, which are controlled with an IR remote.

I would like to control this with domoticz, now I found this website: http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/58053 ... B.html?s=p

And I was wondering what the chances are for this to work.

Cheers,
Will

PS. If someone has a different/better solution please let me know.

waou...didn't know about that one !
do you know if it can handle RGB (and/or RGBW) led strips ?

By the way, where do you get info on the next Rfxtrx433 firmware upgrade ?

On z-wave side, there is the Fibaro RGBW dimmer (around 60€) :

also here for netherlands (http://www.123ledstunter.nl/LED-strip/1 ... r-Set.html) and can be found on Ebay as well. There's different variants', I wonder if all are supported by rfxcom and how one can tell.

(edit: never mind, they ship from China so it's of no use)

According to the website the controller supports only single colour LED>
So no RGB, don't know if any other will support it.

Lightwaverf RGB LED strips are now appearing in the UK. Be great to control the colour changing through Domoticz - particularly through events.

I don't think they are currently supported on RFXcom?

LWRF color commands are supported in the next firmware version and Domoticz would need an update too.
