Devices for local smart homes

Sonoff Orb 4-In-1 SNZB-01M Zigbee smart scene button, 4 keys

Movie night starts before the phone is found — one press on the Orb 4-In-1 fires the whole scene. Four buttons, up to 16 commands; pair it with a Zigbee or eWeLink-Remote gateway.

Sonoff SwitchMan R5W 6-button scene controller remote, white

Lift the R5W off its wall plate and the switch turns into a carry-around six-scene remote. Commands are executed locally by SONOFF relays and switches with eWeLink-Remote.

Six scene keys go on a wall that never had wiring — 3M tape holds them. Presses travel straight to SONOFF relays with eWeLink-Remote; without such a receiver the R5 does nothing.

No one ever wired a switch by the bed — the SNZB-01P adds one without opening the wall: an adhesive plate holds it magnetically, or it simply lies on the nightstand.
