david@berto.co.uk Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 If they run Tasmota or ESPurna then yes they will work. Look like nice switches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdougray Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Yeah they do look nice and at a stupid price just not sure how you would control the individual loads? Ie on a 3 gang. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david@berto.co.uk Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Without playing with the kit I can not say for certain but I strongly suspect that there are different MQTT publish topics/messages per load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveControl Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Just used @david@berto.co.uk driver and this works really well The possibilities are endless with such a driver as many of the IoT devices can interface with a MQTT bus now even light switches etc. Very cool and thank you @david@berto.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amr Posted June 8, 2019 Author Share Posted June 8, 2019 All Shelly's are working beautifully without any issue or programming, on the other hand Sonoff's are a pain in neck, can't seem to get a basic On/Off light to work with them? I used most of the steps described, not working, am I missing anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasmota firmware, Topic on Sonoff is Control4/Sonoff/Flood, On Berto MQTT driver topic is Control4/#, all Shelly’s are working no issue whatsoever, Sonoff’s require programming I believe, I did couple of programing routines as per your posts but cannot get it to work? So what to review and do I need Nodered to troubleshoot? Also the driver have 4 connections for Sonoff basic I used channel 1, so is this correct?

You should have the MQTT bridge installed purely to connect the Sonoff Relay driver to your MQTT Broker, you do to need to put anthingy in the Topics property on the Bridge, this is for custom message subscriptions. You should put the topic used on the Sonoff into the Topic property on the Sonoff Relay driver, in your case Control4/Sonoff/Flood, they should be identical. The driver will then pass the related subscription topics to the Bridge driver which in turn subscribes to your Broker. Glad your see stability with the Shellies, I have several RGB versions and they do appear to stop announcing now and again and need to reboot them, very strange. My Sonoff is rock solid, great kit.

jrh1812 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 @Amr Here is the way I have mine setup. All that is needed for basic control in the Berto_MQTTBridge configuration is the server info. Everything else for Sonoff relays is done through the Berto_SonoffRelay and Berto_RelayLight. First make sure what topic you have configured as the Topic on the sonoff under Configuration> Configure MQTT and make sure that that is entered exactly (case sensitive) under the topic on the Berto_SonoffRelay configuration in composer. Once that is verified then a standard connection needs to be made between Berto_SonoffRelay and the Berto_RelayLight. Let me know if this helps or you have any more questions on it.

Appreciate ur illustrative help, was easy fix, topics was not matched on Sonoff device and relay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need this for my Sonoff relays in the household. Could you send me this driver? I would be very grateful for it. All the best in the meantime, greetings markus (from your POSTE: I also have a simple Relay Light driver that allows you to connect lights up to Sonoff relays and they then appear as normal Control4 lights) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
