Hello folks! I have these switches in my bathroom.
The rightmost is the lights, and the middle one is the bathroom fan, and I’d like to replace that middle one with something I could load tasmota on (or some other open source firmware), without replacing the other switch, the sockets, or the faceplate.
I haven’t seen any smart switches that have a form factor that would fit through this faceplate, though; they seem to mostly want to be the entire electrical box.
If it weren’t for the electrical plugs I could maybe replace this with some kind of 2-gang thing, which isn’t really what I want but could be fine, but as it stands I’m not sure what my options here are.
I don’t need the new switch to necessarily look like the old one, I just want it to fit in the same box and use the same faceplate. Do you folks have any recommendations?
That sounds like it’s a fire hazard, and could be caused by bad wiring, not necessarily the Shelly device itself.
Definitely could be.
I’ve seen lots of reports of them overheating in crowded boxes. I recently removed it just in case I botched the set up.
