Smart Switches (Premium Range)

Yes, the typical setup is one smart switch will power the light, the second switch will act as a remote (with no load connected). Then using automation the two switches can mirror each other state. This way you get the light state synced across both switches. 

You can also add as many switches to this setup in order to control one light source from multiple switches.

No, the switch blue backlight LED is ON when the switch is ON and very dim when OFF (so it can be not distracting in a dark room like a bedroom)

Yes, the included capacitor makes sure the voltage is stable to the switch for stable operation. It needs to be wired accross the light in the roof (please refer to the user manual in the Switch product page).

Please note that it needs to only be wired across the controlled light wired to the L1 output.

Yes, you absolutely need a licensed electrician to install switches in Australia because this type of electrical work is dangerous, illegal to do yourself, and requires a uniquely numbered Certificate of Compliance Electrical Work (CCEW). Improper installation can lead to serious injury, fire, or even death.

Smart Dimmers (Prestige Range)

No, as each dimmer needs to be powering a light (minimum 5W load)

No, whether the neutral wire is present at the wall or not, you can power the dimmer from the live wire and the load wire without needing a capacitor. A minimum of a 5W load is required in order to power up the dimmer itself. 

A quick press to toggle ON or OFF. While the light is ON, you can press and hold to dim down then press and hold again to dim up, you can keep changing from dimming up or down until you reach your desired dimming level.
