SmartWise’s latest smart touch switch product family uses the popular Zigbee smart home protocol for network communication, not WiFi, therefore a Zigbee gateway is required for smart control. When used together with Sonoff Zigbee Bridge or SmartWise Zigbee Bridge Pro, it is compatible with eWeLink app.
The Z1-LS version is a 1-gang touch switch version, featuring white glass touch panel without frame. This is the single-live-wire product version, no neutral wire is needed for installation, so you may surely use this to replace your tradtional live / phase wire only switch.
Thanks to its built-in Zigbee chip, it can be connected to a Sonoff or SmartWise Zigbee gateway, and is also tested to be compatible with the Tuya / SmartLife and SmartThings Zigbee gateways.
Of course, you may use the wall switch to turn on or off the lamp just as we would with a traditional touch switch. But it is also a nice solution for Zigbee based smart control of any lights, to control remotely you lights, set up automations and scheduled on/off switching. Can also be used as a security solution to provide presence simulation, that is, to make the outside world believe you are at home.
Please note that this single-live-wire product comes with a small anti-flicker module, included in the product box. This anti-flicker module needs to be installed not at the switch but at the controlled electric device (e.g. lamp or bulb) to the live and neutral wires.
In most cases the single-live-wire switch cannot work without this small module installed, or it may cause the lamp to turn on/off randomly or the light may flicker.
