Hello,
I have a problem with the IOTTY smart switches. I have quite a few of them in my flat and I have three of them "freaking out" (two occasionally and one very frequently).
The problem is that I am able to turn the light on, but then it is impossible to turn it off - regardless of whether I press the physical button on the switch or try to do so via the app. When trying to turn the light off, I can hear and see that the button responds (clicks), but the light does not go out. Sometimes it needs 30-50 clicks for the light to finally go off.
I haven't noticed that there is any dependence in how long the light is on - sometimes it can be on for a long time and go out normally, sometimes I turn it on for a short time and the problem occurs, and sometimes completely the other way round.
For my part, I have only noticed that only those three switches under which LED strips are plugged in are going crazy (I have never noticed the problem in units under which such strips are not plugged in). Two of the switches that go crazy occasionally only have LED strips plugged in, and the one that goes crazy very often has several other light sources plugged in besides the LED strips.
I contacted the manufacturer, who said that the total load per switch cannot exceed 5A and the problem looks as if the switches were overloaded. The manufacturer suggested that an "external solid state relay" be fitted in front of the switch.
I am completely unfamiliar with electrics / electronics so here is my question: does this solution actually make sense, can it help? If such a solution could work, can anyone recommend a specific relay that would meet the manufacturer's requirement and fit in the box behind the switch? (the smaller the better)
