Which 433mhz plugin dimmer works properly?

Post by Laserlaser »

Hi there, I just started playing around with domoticz on a raspi and found out that my home easy dimmers can't be properly controlled with the system. The dimming process is started by sending the ON signal a second time while they are already switched on and stopped with a third ON signal. (Most of the cheap plugin dimmers are working that way)

So far I haven't found a way of repeating the ON signal with the domoticz web interface. Switching them on and off works fine, though when configured as ON/OFF switch. When configured as a dimmer the usage of the percentage bar leads to weird uncontrollable reactions.

Is there a script or any other way to make this work?

If not, is there a recommendable 433 MHz plugin dimmer that is completely supported?

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions!

I have the same question.
My Home Easy dimmer doesn't work with direct dimming levels, looking for a dimmer that does support it.

The newer KAKU dimmers should support direct dimming level control.

I can confirm that the three dimmers we have from KAKU work like a charm with the RFXcom433E and the app.

I have a acm-300. Can anyone confirm this one is working?

Or do I have to buy a new one?

Yes. Have multiple for halogen 220v spots GU10, 1 220v transformer for halogen dining table hanging light and one for 3 classic lightbulbs in a main living room light.
It is NOT working with LED lights!!

Sorry i gave the wrong type number. It's ac-300. It dims when you use on button twice.

How do you make this setup?
I chose dimmer. Is see the swipe button in domoticz but I can't use it...
