Buttons

« Best Buy Tips overview

Buttons are a simple way to control your smart home by hand, and a good fallback when you don’t want to use your phone. A Zigbee button can switch a light, activate a scene or trigger any automation. Some can even be linked directly to a lamp, without a hub. Below are the wall switches, wall dimmers and portable buttons I use.
