Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 EU Gray | Light dimmer with knob | Thread, Zigbee

Full control over the lighting in your home! The Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 is a state-of-the-art light dimmer that supports Zigbee and Matter over Thread and will give you seamless control of your lighting with a dial, app or voice. With extensive smart home compatibility, precise dimming and support for different types of lighting, your home will become even more comfortable and energy efficient.
The Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 is a real breakthrough in smart lighting, offering support for two leading communication protocols: Zigbee and Thread. This unique feature makes the dimmer extremely versatile and compatible with a variety of smart home ecosystems .
In Thread mode , the Aqara dimmer works without the need for an Aqara control panel (hub), allowing direct connection to Matter-based platforms. This allows you to enjoy integration with third-party smart home systems, while maintaining the full functionality of the dimmer.
Zigbee mode, on the other hand, unlocks Aqara 's exclusive features and provides backward compatibility with Aqara's classic Zigbee control panels. By selecting Zigbee 3.0 mode, you gain access to advanced automation, scene control and personalized settings in the Aqara Home app. The flexibility of the protocols allows users to tailor the dimmer to their preferences and needs, regardless of their chosen smart home ecosystem .
Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 is a smart module that is designed for easy and hassle-free installation. Whether your home has an installation with or without a neutral wire, this switch will meet your needs.
The dimmer supports both types of electrical installations: without a neutral wire and with a neutral wire. This eliminates any concerns about the electrical configuration of your home. In homes without a neutral wire, installation is quick and easy, while in homes with a neutral wire, you gain additional features such as overload protection and energy consumption monitoring, which increases both safety and efficiency. Aqara has made sure that a smart home is accessible to everyone, regardless of their electrical system.
The centerpiece of the Aqara H2 dimmer is a multi-function dial that combines intuitive operation with advanced features. Using it, you can smoothly adjust the brightness of the lighting from 1% to 100%, achieving precise dimming and perfectly adjusting the lighting to the current situation.
It also acts as an on/off switch. Simply press it to turn the light on or off. In addition, the dimmer can act as a wireless button, allowing you to control other smart home devices or call up preset scenes. The default response time of the dimmer is 1.5 seconds, but users have the option to adjust this time to their preference, further enhancing the user experience. Controlling lighting has never been so intuitive and fun!
The Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 offers broad compatibility with various types of lighting, including incandescent, halogen, and dimmable LED and CFL lamps. The dimmer supports both Leading Edge and Trailing Edge dimming, ensuring stable and smooth dimming with most available lamps, preparing your lighting for future upgrades.
The default dimming mode is Trailing Edge, which is compatible with all supported lamp types. This makes the Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 a versatile solution that will fit perfectly with your existing lighting and future smart home projects.
The Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 has been designed in accordance with the System 55 standard (55 mm x 55 mm), which guarantees seamless integration with most modular switch systems available on the European market. The dimmer is compatible with popular multiple frames, such as the Gira System 55 and Merten M, making installation easy even without the help of an electrician.
The dimmer's standardized design ensures compatibility in markets throughout the European Union, minimizing the need for custom solutions and simplifying integration into existing electrical installations. The Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 is a module that just fits!
Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 not only controls lighting, but also monitors the energy consumption of connected wired devices. In the Aqara Home app, you can access daily, weekly and monthly energy consumption reports.
This detailed data allows you to optimize daily electricity consumption, create energy-saving plans and automations that reduce consumption and promote sustainable energy use. With the Aqara Dimmer Switch H2, you not only take care of the comfort of your smart home, but also the environment and your wallet!
Zigbee mode users in the Aqara Home app can adjust the dimming range by setting the maximum and minimum brightness. This feature allows the dimmer to work optimally and prevents light flicker and power loss.
The maximum brightness setting ensures that low-power lamps operate smoothly at maximum brightness without flickering or switching off. Minimum brightness prevents light flickering, instability, or failure to turn on at low brightness settings. The Aqara Dimmer Switch H2 gives you full control over your lighting, allowing you to perfectly adjust it to your needs.
