Touchscreen Dial V1

Muy buen producto

Cet article est très bien pensé.

Points forts :
- design élégant.
- double interrupteur direct
- 6 commutateurs
- la molette du variateur est très agréable.

Points faibles :
- 149€ un interrupteur qui certes est complet et n’est pas qu’un simple interrupteur mais 149 euros quand même c’est cher surtout pour les tarifs pour lesquels nous a habitué la marque Aqara.
- obligation d’avoir un fil neutre sinon impossibilité d’utiliser cet interrupteur.
- j’ai le plafonnier T1M d’aqara et ce dernier a un anneau et une lumière principale. Étant donné que c’est assimilé à 2 lumières différentes mais sur le même équipement, la molette du variateur ne fonctionne pas sur un branchement direct.
Afin de palier à ce problème, j’ai programmé un commutateur sur la lumière principale et un autre sur l’anneau et sur ces modes le variateur fonctionne très bien.

Non évalué :
- je n’ai aucun équipement dans ma maison qui n’est pas de marque Aqara je n’ai donc pas pu tester la compatibilité via Matter.
- je ne sais pas si cet article est étanche et s’il peut être utilisé dans une salle de bains.

It's a really beautiful device, installation in the socket was very easy like a regular electric switch. You can use it with or without neutral cable but I believe you loose some functionality if you don't have the neutral.
Pairing it with the Aqara app was also very easy and fast.

One important thing to know is that the dial is not a real physical dimmer, it will only dimm smart bulbs and as far as I know only aqara bulbs unless you link it to homekit and/or Home Assistant to control other brands. Hence one star less.

So I have it controlling 3 aqara GU10 spots as a group and it works really well. I was able to do all the automations I needed in the app itself, I didn't need to go to home assistant but I have them paired with homekit in HA at the same time just in case I would need some more sophisticated automation one day.

I found the Aqara app really not well organized, I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to make the dial dimm the lights, I was about to give up thinking that probably it was a feature not implemented yet. You have to add them in screen configuration instead of via the button -> switch information.

I read a comment saying that you can only scroll through your scenes/automations/switchs by swiping left or right the screen and that you can't use the dial, but that is not accurate, you can press the screen for 1 second and it will change to a ring of icons representing all your scenes/automations/switchs and then you use the dial to quickly scroll through them. (see picture)

The display has a proximity sensor and when you are not close enough it can display a "screen saver" with useful info that you choose like the outdoor weather or some other info from another aqara sensor. You can also decide instead to make it turn off the screen instead of the the screen saver if you prefer.
You can choose between a few dark and light themes that are also beautiful. For some reason there are still some Chinese characters that I think they forgot to translate in the main screen.
I have it displaying the outdoor temperature from my city and I think there is a bug because the temperature is wrong, probably they will fix it soon.

Overall I am satisfied about the quality, the functionality and the beauty of the device. A bit pricey though.

excellent interrupteur qui oeut etre customisé, et qui par sa connexion wifi peut se passer d'un hub. le seul defaut , c'est que le neutre est obligatoire, limitant son usage sur des circuits d'eclairage en France, ou bon nombre n'ont que la phase.
Le prix est cela dit relativement elevé, il se democratisera quand il sera 30% moins cher.
