A Smart Wired light switch

[davetedwards]

Hi!

 

I’ve unsuccessfully been looking for a wired light switch that can control smart lights. 
 

I want a regular looking light switch (maybe a dimmer) that is wired for power but it only controls a smart device like a smart lightbulb or smart plug. 
 

I just want to not deal with any batteries but allow me to control devices from a standard switch. 
 

Has anyone found such a device?

Yes plenty of those exist BUT we need to know what lights you are wanting to control because basically nothing is inter compatible in this "smart" mess.

I use shelly i4 behind regular switches to control my yeelight smart bulbs and pretty much all of my other smart home devices via home assistant. Never had any issues with them. I would recommend getting some kind of a smart hub to connect your devices together, otherwise you will be stuck with a single manufacturer.
