    Looks like you have to hard wire this in, which puts it above the level of like 95% of people on this site

      Also, in order to be connected as a "switch" it will probably need certain safety approvals.

      A licenced electrician would need to be able to demonstrate that it was compliant with standards and hence safe to install. There have been a number of problems with compliance of other "WiFi switches".

      And no, the fact that it is designed to CE or whatever is irrelevant.

      • Yep - I very much doubt this adheres to Australian standards.

    • +1

      thanks for the heads up, after reading the spiel i got quite excited, but not that keen to wire in the Australian power plugs myself.

      Maybe if OP offered a customised Sonoff Power with AU male power plug on one end and female on other i'd have another look at it

      • It would ABSOLUTELY DEFINITELY NOT be legal if the OP supplied it with a flex and plug fitted.

        This is not a portable product, and is not intended for stand-alone usage. It needs to be enclosed, and also needs to be safe.

    • I'm sure there are still a few hobbyists around.

  • Do these have or require SAA approval?

    • SAA is a private company, and the term "SAA" has nothing to do with regulatory standards.

      Regarding compliance - it depends what it is classified as.

      As a "Wall Switch", then certification is mandatory.

      Otherwise, as a mains connected device, it is required to be inherently safe to connect. The evidence to this is a Certificate of Suitability that demonstrates that the product complies with all relevant Australian standards.

      Installers have a legal responsibility that requires them to DEMONSTRATE that the product is compliant. The ultimate responsibility stops at whoever imported it.

      tl:dr; No electrician will install this, and a private person who does so faces a world of grief if there is any incident at any time in the future.

      No, no problem unless you want to resell them in Australia, or hard-wire into your home.

      Just add a suitable cable and protective jiffy-box etc, and plug into a GPO.
      Sadly, electrical hobbies are going the way of the (non-boring) chemistry set, and model rockets in our sanitised nanny state.

        … or leave them plugged in, monitoring your power usage.

        Well, private individuals can do whatever they like, however if there was a fire traced to it, would the insurance company use non-compliance as an excuse not to pay out?

        (EDIT TO ADD: this was in response to the first paragraph, not the additional bit added later by manic)

        • +2

          These insurance arguments tend to get a bit silly. They'd have to show negligence, yadda yadda.
          The real question is have any insurance claims been denied for similar reasons?

          There must have been fires started by dodgy power supplies or batteries bought on ebay.

          People should recognise that if you are going to import your own components, you need to take on extra care and responsibility.

        • @manic:

          I agree about the insurance. However I have been involved with a couple of cases of incidents and its not fun dealing with the safety regulators like ESV and NSW Fair Trading.

          The big issue is that when you personally import you have no way of knowing or assessing what is safe and what is not. Because of our relatively strict electrical safety standards we don't have many incidents of fires or electrocution here in Australia.

          This leads consumers into a sense of security - they assume that since hardly anyone is ever harmed, that therefore ALL electrical items are safe. The most laughable argument is that "Name-brand products like Apple are made in China, so why would this no-name ebay purchase be unsafe?". So much misguided trust!

          In reality the consumer has no way of knowing what is good or bad - they don't have any way of testing or assessing this. Taking responsibility ends up meaning "trusting the manufacturer", which is sort-of logical except that Chinese factories are not always looking for an Australian Consumer's best interests when they are designing and manufacturing the stuff. Just the safety testing in a lab costs thousands, and why bother when you can just write "C-Tick" and "SAA" on the item description and most punters will deem that is sufficient to "prove it is safe". A lot of it isn't even genuine in the first place, so even the "brand name" means very little.

          Ignorance is bliss - the potential danger is quite subtle sometimes. It's not the things that go bang when you first plug them in that are the problem…. it's the ones that are left running under the couch or in the ceiling cavity, or in reach of children, etc. Even the lowly mains plug where somebody has twisted US pins or used a chinese US>AU adaptor with uninsulated pins… these are death traps for children, and no you cannot supervise them 24/7. You might not even remember the device is there when friends visit years later.

          It's not about being a nanny or anything. Unsafe electrical items are not dangerous if treated correctly. However the average consumer simply hasn't got a clue what is safe and what's not safe, nor what measures to take to reduce risk. For me, I prefer over-regulation than death.

        • @llama:

          Because of our relatively strict electrical safety standards we don't have many incidents of fires or electrocution here in Australia.

          China has similar standards. Your ticked item may have been tested in a Chinese lab. Its compliance rates that are the issue :-) .
          I'd be more concerned about poor isolation between high and low voltage parts leading to electrocution, than about fires. There was that woman in Australia, Sheryl Aldeguer, who bought a cheap iphone charger from the markets, and was electrocuted while using earphones. Insurance will not help there.
          I opened up a few old chines chargers from my drawer after that (unused because they had US pins) but all appeared safely designed.

          For me, I prefer over-regulation than death.

          A classic false dichotomy. Other developed countries with less regulation do not have a worse safety record. Some better. You only have to look as far as NZ, where you could legally hard-wire these sort of things in your home.

          Anyway, bear in mind that the above is not a consumer product.

  • What is the claim light output of "Sonoff LED- WiFi Dimming LED Pack"?

    One place claims 36W consumption. Elsewhere states 2x8W.

    • Hello,
      It supports 30W-36W
      But it works with 32W acctually
      We will correct it
      Thanks

      • Do you know the Lumens of the supplied LEDs, assuming they are included.

  • If you are interested in these devices, which imho are excellent, id recommend looking at Pete Scargills blog, and Jon Oxer's review here: https://youtu.be/_389pQPLyr8
