In this video we'll take a look at my solution for controlling smart bulbs with normal light switches! No more messing around with smart remotes and light switches that need to be kept switched on - with this solution your regular light switches can control the smart bulbs and even trigger scenes while automatically falling back to working like regular light switches if your smart bulbs fail or Home Assistant goes down!
