soft button dimmer recommendation (self.homeassistant)

submitted 2 weeks ago by Im_old to c/homeassistant

Hi, I'm in the market for a zigbee dimmer (no neutral). There is a rotary one from Candeo that technically is what I need, but honestly it looks a bit ugly.

Anyone has a "soft button" switch to recommend? By soft button I mean something that:

if pressed once (short press) it turns on/off
with long press it increase/decrease power

Even better if it's a 2-gang one.
Thanks everyone!

Thanks! I was hoping for one with a physical button to depress tbh. But this passes the WAF (and it's cheaper than the other one!) So all good, thanks!

These work great as well if you want something a bit more tactile: https://moeshouse.com/products/zigbee-round-dimmer-scene-switch

Not inlaid to the wall, but they come on a mountable metal plate and have a magnetic base. Never had an issue with one so far though.
