Re: Remote light controls

I haven't done a 3-way but it wouldn't be too hard.? If your switch locations aren't wired like a typical 3-way but there is power at each switch location then you could put a Shelly relay at each location with each switch tied to the switch input on the relay.? The relay output at remote switch wouldn't be tied to anything.? Toggling the switch at the remote location would just trigger some programming logic in the processor to make things work.

If this is a retrofit and the circuit is wired like a dumb 3-way then you could use a Shelly 2.5 relay in the location where the wiring to the load is.? The Shelly 2.5 has two switch inputs so the local and remote switches would each be wired to the 2.5 as well as the load.? Again, I believe some programming logic would be needed to make it operate like a 3-way.??

Dimming would be more of a challenge.? The issue is that raise/lower logic is typically triggered by a press and hold.? The challenge is that a typical wall switch just toggles on/off and there isn't an easy way to implement the press and hold logic.

I hope this all makes sense

Shelly has some interesting products at affordable prices. Has anyone here converted a 3-way switch to a Shelly interface? What about dimming in that same scenario?

I didn't see anything that?looked like it was made for a 3-way switch setup but it just may come down to wiring.

Hope this helps
