Shelly with Yeeligth ceiling lamp always power on

  • Hi,

    so lets say: I have a physical wall switch for smart wi-fi connected Yeelight ceiling lamp. Everytime I turn the light off (via wall switch) there is no electricity to the lamp and next time I turn it on it goes to default factory state, which I dont like.

    Is there any way, using a Shelly 1L or other Shelly, that I turn the light off via waal switch and still has power so it can keep my prefered settings?

    Bye

  • Hi,

    From my point of view it wouldn't get any better when combining two smart systems e.g. your smart ceiling lamp by adding a Shelly.
    If you have Life, Neutral and Lamp wire available at the existing switch, you could replace your smart lamp by a generic , or Shelly compatible lamp and then add a Shelly 1 to your switch.
    Such you would be able to either control your lamp by Smartphone or wall switch.

    Or:

    If you have Life, Neutral and Lamp wire available at the existing switch and your smart Lamp can be controled by http commands, then you could add a Shelly 1 to your wall switch, connect the Lamp wire to Life, such that the smart lamp is always energized and then you would be able to control the lamp by Smartphone or existing wall switch, which then would send a http command to your smart lamp to toggle their condition. (this solution is overkill).
