There is always an LED on the switch, it is never completely dark. Greetings

Yes, the switch has an on/off switch on the bottom for manual switching without an app :) This lights up when the power is on and does not light up when the power is off.
You can control the myStrom switches via IFTTT. So you only have to program a command once via IFTTT (e.g. "I am at home") and every time you enter the command via Alexa, the predefined switches are triggered. By the way, it also works with many other IoT devices, so you can have your Nuki lock open your front door when the GPS of your phone is closer than 1km to your home, the possibilities are relatively unlimited.

The official app does not have a function that enables temperature-dependent control. myStrom, however, has an open API that is supported by various systems. I use myStrom together with Home Assistant, which runs on a Raspberry Pie. In this combination, everything is theoretically possible because you can access the temperature sensors of myStrom and control the relay. However, I recommend using a different temperature sensor, as the sensor in the relay is not very accurate due to the self-heating of the myStrom adapter.
Yes WPS is a general interface independent of manufacturer.
Yes, you can set timeslots in the app when to switch on and off.
As far as I know, the plug is only available with top earthing. The advantage is that three myStrom plugs can be fitted to a 3-way wall socket. Since the socket has the earthing on the inside.
Hello Tattoofreak,
The MyStrom adapter must be connected to the MyStrom App Service in order to control it.
For the router, I would recommend a hotspot connection to your smartphone as an alternative. The important thing is that the adapter is lit white and has a connection. Which receives a signal at the given hour / minute from the service as a ping.
I hope I was able to help you.

Since it doesn't communicate with ZigBee, unfortunately no, but theoretically you could make a Maker Applett with IFTTT (just google it) and link the two together there. It's just very difficult to set up.

It's best to buy two, then you can use one to measure the other ;)

So if this should ever happen to you, you can dispose of the part right away :D

Hello
No, because the myStrom Switch needs a connection to the Internet to control it. So it also needs a connection to the WLAN. I assume that the router is also the AccessPoint. It works perfectly to control the TV.
1. n/a
2. yes. Because the communication goes via wifi.

The temperature value is indicated in the displayed time window. Therefore, the value cannot be reset.
take a closer look! It is still 38.8 at Galaxus
This is not possible directly. It can only be programmed via time.
These connect via WLAN, not via Powerline. So you can operate them in parallel with the old ones, yes.

The mobile phone does not have to be connected to the WLAN. For the timer function. However, I don't know if the switch has to be connected to the Wi-Fi.
No, you can't do that with it. I would recommend a Sehlly 1. With it, something like this can be realised.
Helpful answer
You don't specify if this is the first connection to a new switch... If it is, you need to connect the phone to the wifi emitted by the switch and not to an existing wifi in the house. I can't remember the name of this wifi, but it is indicated in the manual supplied in the box.
No: 1 plug
There is an app. The things can be controlled via this app. The whole thing is in the cloud.
Yes, this function exists in the app. Timer for ON and OFF status
Yes. Set of 2 is two times one. Each packed separately. As if you were adding two to the shopping basket.
Yes, you can do that with the myStrom app.
What also works with iPhone: add myStrom to HomeKit; a hub at home (Apple TV, iPad, HomeKit-compatible router) then passes on the commands via LAN.

myStrom Energy Control" and "mystrom WLAN" are exactly the same product, individually or in a set of 2.
