great job, I didnt go the self install route.But used HASSOS. The best thing I have had with HA is setting up a broadlink socket, the app could not connect. Turns out HA has seen them an linked up, blocking the app

Yes, that’s the badger. They have a vast amount of built-in functions, also can be all local. I was using mqtt to access mine, but have switched to the home assistant integration

You could have a look at a shelly 1L that might do it, put the shelly in the light fitting and wire the switches in to it

Have also updated, seemed to be broke. But a restart seems to have fixed it, no change to config needed
