Three circuits, and a way in that does not need the network

The WiFi touch switch RF 3 gang covers three circuits from one plate, and carries a 433 MHz receiver behind the glass as well as Wi-Fi. On a three gang plate that second radio matters more than on a one gang, because a hall plate controlling three things is the one you least want to lose when the router reboots. Pair a remote and all three keep working with nothing on the network at all.

Where three gangs and RF go together

Typically an entrance hall or a corridor: the passage, the outside light and the sitting room, all switched from the door. Add a 433 MHz handheld and the same three circuits can be run from a bedroom at the other end of the house without pulling a single cable. That combination is difficult to achieve any other way at this price.

On a WiFi touch switch RF 3 gang, each circuit is its own device

All three appear separately in Smart Life, each with its own schedule and voice name. Scenes can be triggered by mode, by temperature, by humidity or by another device, so the outside light can follow dusk while the passage follows a sensor and the third stays a plain switch.

The build

PC and tempered glass on a fire resistant shell, phosphor bronze connectors, CE, FCC and RoHS marked. On a three gang plate carrying three mains circuits, the connector quality is worth more attention than the glass; phosphor bronze keeps its grip where cheaper metal relaxes over the years.

Before ordering

Count the buttons on the existing plate, and check there is a neutral wire in the back box. Both are quick to confirm with the cover off, and both decide whether this switch can go in at all.

The remote is sold separately: the RF wireless remote or the wall mounted RF wireless switches. For two circuits, the 2 gang version. Setup happens in Smart Life, a free download.
