I'm lost: Smart Plugs/Smart Wall Switches & Compatibility
Posted: Tuesday 11 September 2018 20:07
I've only had Domoticz running for a couple of months, mainly as a project to get some old X10 gear up and running. I've added HA bridge for Alexa compatibility, and now I want to add new hardware and I'm completely lost...
I'm in the US, so would require that outlet type. I see on Amazon all kinds of fairly inexpensive WiFi enabled wall switches and smart plugs that work directly with Alexa and even IFTTT (good) but I'm trying to find by searching the forums those that also are fairly straight forward to work with Domoticz as well.
...and that's my problem. Being so new I don't even have a brand or place to start. I have a very robust WiFi MESH system with excellent coverage everywhere on my property so something that uses it is preferred to something that is a hub that broadcasts a separate signal.
Does anyone have a suggesting to get me started?
