@piofthings@mastodon.social @recantha@mastodon.social A 3kW heating element, which is switched on just fine through my HA dashboard, but when I switched it on using a manually connected switch it died almost immediately. I now have a MOES 20A dual pole Zigbee smart switch on order.

    @drfootleg@fosstodon.org @recantha@mastodon.social yeah… those zigbee minis were I think 10A rated with the neutral… without neutral was 6A I think. I have only used GoSunds for 13A loads that I used to Tasmotise.

    @drfootleg@fosstodon.org @recantha@mastodon.social if you are trying to switch your hot water tank element, I use this https://amzn.eu/d/0gwgk1Zt (well that’s the link Amazon is currently giving me from my past purchases).
