Smart Switches and Controllers FAQs
Do all smart switches need a hub? Some Aqara smart switches let you connect them directly to your Wi-Fi. Others will need to be synced to a control hub.
Will smart switches work with any type of bulb? Smart switches work with a variety of LED, CFL, and incandescent light bulbs. Check with your bulb's manufacturer to see if they're compatible.
Does a smart hub need Wi-Fi? Your smart hub may need Wi-Fi to communicate with your smartphone or receive updates. However, the Aqara hubs use Zigbee to communicate locally with the smart devices in your home, and this network doesn't need a Wi-Fi connection.
Is smart switch installation a DIY task? If you're comfortable handling electrical wiring, you can do this project yourself. However, those without the right training should hire a professional instead.
