#Smart switch no neutral pro
I don’t understand why the RM Pro can’t also do this, but have found very little online about it. You can then use any number of RF remote controls/switches/doorbells as buttons to trigger your devices/anything else you want to connect and trigger.
#Smart switch no neutral plus
A big plus for the Hook however, is that you can not only transmit RF signals out to control your devices, but the hub is also able to function as an always listening RF receiver, which can also then trigger actions. The hook uses a cloud-based portal and can connect directly with IFTTT via webhooks/HTTP requests. I like the Hook very much, however it only works on 315 MHz RF signals, while the RM Pro will work with 315 and 433 MHz devices. I’ve had no issues.īut yes, for these devices you need an RF transmitter/receiver aka “hub.” I have the Hook Home Automation hub (less than $50) and also the Broadlink RM Pro (you can find them for $25 online).
Actually, there are several other brand names on Amazon with the same technology (I guess this is an example of China’s lax/non-existent patent laws?), and I have both Funry and Livolo brand RF wall switches in my home and they work beautifully, with Alexa/Google/and with OpenHAB via IFTTT, or I imagine the Broadlink RM Pro once I can figure out the best way to get that working with OpenHAB (I’m brand new to OpenHAB). I faced the same challenge in my 1950 home and the glass-touch-panel switches mentioned above have worked beautifully for me.
