Essentially the title.

If only S2 (previous connection point from light switch to bulb) is truly required, then, wow, that makes things way easier to install.

I guess electrically it makes sense, I’m just weirded out it does not show in the instructions.

      After some research, all I’ve gathered is one report saying that you’ll absolutely destroy the Sonoff if you try to do that.

      I reviewed the Aqara manual, and the possibility is specified there, so that makes it quite probable that it simply is a forbidden configuration for the Sonoff, or even any smart switch that does not specify that possibility.

      So, unless someone magically shows me it’s possible, I am avoiding it for now, I’ll learn how to pass cables through the tubes and avoid any burning for now 😅

        S1 and S2 are only for the activation switch. You connect the actual device that gets controlled to Line Out.

        If your setup doesn’t require a physical switch, then nothing gets connected to S1 and S2
