Hardware

I’m after a simple controller to integrate with HA to swicth on/off and dim a 2 wire 24V Warm White COB LED strip. Zigbee, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, ideally, with barrel connectors

I have the Power Supply, just need a controller to integrate with HA.

Any suggestions?

If you want Zigbee, any led controller on the Z2M devices page should work - you’d simply hook up only one of the channels if it’s a RGB controller.

Having said that, the MiBoxer PZ2 should be perfect for your needs, since it has built in support for switching to single colour mode.
I’m personally running a small Tuya TS0504B for my LEDs & it’s been pretty well behaved.

I tend to avoid Tuya as I don’t want the cloud app.

I don’t want any exposed terminals that need a case etc.

Tuya zigbee devices don’t use cloud or need the app. You simply pair them to your zigbee coordinator in HA using ZHA or Z2M & all communication is local.

Good, and cloud app is not the only reason.
Shelly RGBW2 could fit well here, local control out of the box.
What’s the power of your strip?

I’d looked at those, but they have exposed terminals and needs a case of some sort :frowning:

Ah, yes, I was thinking of the Tuya WiFi devices.

After much digging I have found these and of course more options then appear.

Careful if you’re using ZHA. It’s not officially listed as compatible with it.

If you’re using Z2M, you shouldn’t have any issues though.
