I got these, the blues are zigbee, red is zwave. I also have no neutral and they work fine, though you might need an aeotec bypass if you lights flicker with no neutral https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BG329SH3?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
aeotec bypass
Interesting. It says that the bypass is installed at the light fixture. Does that mean if I have multiple in-ceiling recessed lights on a single switch I need a bypass for each one?
If they're all on the same line you should only have to bypass one, but I'm no electrician I just hooked it up to a double light in my bathroom. The bypass was recommended in the inovelli document that came with the switch
Geez, $70 for a single switch?
When I bought it, it was 40 bucks. They're also full of functionality like having a "smart" mode which doesn't kill power to the bulb on off (good for lights with color adjustment for day/night) and zigbee pairing (light switch connects directly to zigbee bulbs)
Well, that's not so bad. I'll have to keep an eye out for them at that price
I bought them at $50 each. They're sold out everywhere and sellers are cashing in. Inovelli can't make them fast enough. On their site everything's back-ordered until November.
