I’m looking into setting up a home assistant smart lighting system just like this person has although they use the Lutron Aurora dimmer which isn’t made to be placed on top of EU light switches.

Is there a Dimmer switch that works for EU? I have found alternatives but they all require removal of the switch already in the wall rather than placing on top, which isn’t very renter friendly

    looking at Ikea I found the Tradfri wireless dimmer, perhaps I could just use that an stick it on a wall with something like double sided tape… not ideal but it works

    this may be able to help me integrate it

      Hm. Tradfri is right, but we have a networked wallbox as well, that talks to all the lamps, is controlled by an app and, iirc, can be integrated in home control solutions.

      We’ve had it for a few years, though. Maybe it’s discontinued, or not available where you are?

      For sticking anything to walls, I’d highly recommend 3M’s Command range rather than regular double sided tape. They’ve a bunch of products for fixing things to walls that come away cleanly when you take them off.
