Temp Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Anyone know of an Alexa/Echo compatible plug/socket that ALSO has a wireless key fob? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeGrahamT21 Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Why do you need a wireless key fob? Would controlling it on your phone not suffice? Toolstation have got some new BG sockets in which are compatible, and IFTTT too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temp Posted October 10, 2019 Author Share Posted October 10, 2019 It will also be used by an elderly family member - their phone still has a keypad and can't install apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wozza Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Take a look at the Aurora Aone range. https://aone.auroralighting.com/ProductDetails//AU-A1ZBDSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temp Posted October 10, 2019 Author Share Posted October 10, 2019 Will do. Just to clarify... It could be a plug in adaptor, doesn't have to be a face plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like their socket or plug in adaptor ( https://aone.auroralighting.com/ProductDetails/AU-A1ZBPIA) can be used with their remote ( https://aone.auroralighting.com/ProductDetails/AU-A1ZBRC ) although might be a tad expensive at around £40 each.

Temp Posted October 10, 2019 Author Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) Looks like I've found a cheaper option... https://www.amazon.co.uk/eMylo-110V-240V-Wireless-Automation-Compatible/dp/B07JLQNHRH/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=Emylo+smart+alexa&qid=1570750464&s=diy&sr=1-4 Its a relay with three ways to control it... 1) Manual wall switch 2) Wifi/Alexa 3) RF keyfobs All for £26. Not quite sure about the packaging of the unit - exposed wires - will need to find a box but no problem. Edited October 10, 2019 by Temp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temp Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 Thanks for that, I didn't know they had this fob.. https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/QUFB1.html Pity the adapter itself is so expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ENER-J stuff might be worth looking at. I think its Quinetic stuff under another name. Zigbee and Thinkbee are similar. As I said in another thread my Quinetic switch paired with my mates Thinkbee receiver. IKEA even do their TRADFRI range: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/search/products/?q=tradfri I dont know if it uses the same protocols as Quinetic, or is Alexa compatible etc but the socket is only a tenner.
