Matter Smart Light Switch, Neutral Wire Required, Compatible with Alexa and Google Home, 2.4GHz WiFi 2 Gang Mechanical Switch M5-2C-86W

I use these for my drive and porch lights. Very handy now if coming home i can put the lights on so don’t need navigate my long drive in the dark. Also useful when you go to bed and realised you left the lights on I can turn them off whilst in bed. I use these SONOFF bridge and I have it configured with Google Home which also controls this as well as Phillips hue bulbs.

Brilliant. Looks nice and works a treat. Only gripe was that the instructions were a little unclear. Read them over well before installing.

Easy 5 minute installation, replacing a ‘dumb’ immersion heater timer (which was actually being used to control outside lighting), as I was fed up of constantly changing the program to account for the lengthening and shortening of the days. I’ve now set up a routine in Alexa to turn on 15mins before sunset and turn off at midnight. Easy to swap wiring over. Fits standard size single pattress box. Clean aesthetic look and light touch button rather than a rocker/cam style mechanism. Quickly paired with WiFi and the app and also quickly detected by Alexa app. Will be purchasing more for applications where a smart socket or bulb aren’t suitable.

Product worked perfectly an adopted to apple homekit easily

You need a deep recess to house this and the various connectors you’ll need for UK wiring. The box of electronics behind the switch is bulky and doesn’t leave much room in a standard 35mm switch housing. If you can get everything inside your recess, the switch works well and, once paired with the Ewe app, is picked up by Alexa straight away.

I am very impressed with this switch. It is very well built and feels like high quality product, not cheap plastic. The connection was super easy and fast. Important note: You must have the Neutral wire (the blue cable) in your wall box. If you do not have this blue wire, the switch will not work for you. Please check this before buying! Highly recommend.

These work great and connect to Alexa or Apple home, or both at once. They sit flush and fit fine in my slightly deeper back boxes (I think mine are about 35-40mm) The only bad thing is the feel of the buttons when pressing them. It’s fine. But it’s not a nice satisfying click.

Works great and easy to install
