12/16/2023 0 Comments Wifi smart switch![]() ![]() As we mention earlier, the switch is also supported in Local Tuya. 0=OFF, 1=ON, 2=Remember last stateĮven though it uses Tuya firmware, this Aubess Mini Smart Switch integrates without issues when using the official integration. The default state of the switch can be set when powering on the mains power.When adding this Mini Smart Switch in Home Assistant, it exposes two entities: If you haven’t already integrated your Tuya devices, follow this tutorial: I intend on making a separate up-to-date tutorial in the near future to cover everything you need to know. Integrating Tuya devices in HA, is a long and somewhat difficult process. Integration CompatibilityĪs this is a Tuya based Wi-Fi switch, we can use the official Tuya Integration in HA or the custom Local Tuya Integration (switches are supported in LocalTuya). If you are wiring the module outside of a switchbox, like a stool lamp, the N-out is connected to the N-wire (blue) of your lamp. This is because the light you are controlling is already connected to Neutral somewhere in your home installation. Important: If you are wiring the module inside a switchbox, the N-out terminal remains unconnected. (Optional) The S1 and S2 are connected with the wall switch.The L-out and N-out are connected to your light.The L and N from the mains are connected to L-in and N-in.This switch can be wired in three ways, with a wall switch, with a 2-way switch and with no switch. We’ll see if this presents issues in terms of heat. Possibly a design necessity to stuff everything together in the small box. What is very weird, is the Wi-Fi controller sits on top of all the other electrical components at an angle. Its Wi-Fi communication is handled by the BL2028N chip, which is a Wi-Fi and BLE capable MCU integrated in many other smart W-Fi switches. Apparently it passed the CN CQC (Care Quality Commission) quality tests and is CE/ROHS certified and was rated for 50.000 toggles. This mini smart switch carries a SKE JQC-12FT relay, which is a 16A power relay manufactured by Ningbo Seek Electrical Co. ![]() The screw terminals are surprisingly strong and soldered good. The front contains some basic information and 6 standard screw terminals for wiring, while the back has a pairing button and a round layout of small holes, which I assume are for heat dissipation.Įverything is jam packed closely together, but considering its small dimensions this was expected. My first impression of this switch is: It is TINY! This could be a good thing, it can easily be fitted in existing switch boxes or it could be a bad thing, components cramped too close together can generate excess heat which is a potential fire hazard. We are going to examine its components, connectivity and compatibility.Ī Zigbee version is also available of this Tuya Mini Smart Switch which can be bought for ~$4-5 on AliExpress and Amazon ( Jump to see other stores) Technical Specification It’s the cheapest smart switch you can purchase currently, priced at ~$4 with free shipping from AliExpress (shipping is location dependent).
