Aqara Thread/Zigbee Smart LED Light - Can not pair to Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus V2

Hey everyone, I bought Aqara Thread/Zigbee Smart LED Light Bulb T2 E26, thinking I could easily pair this to the Sonoff Zigbee antenna, the bulb is not seen for Zigbee. I can only pair it over Matter.

looking at the description, I thought I should be able to pair this to to Sonoff.

Anyone have insight on this ?

If it’s only pairing via Matter, then the bulb is in matter mode. You need to switch it to zigbee mode using the Aqara app - no other Aqara hardware should be required.

Have a look at the manual for the bulb. It should mention how to switch modes.

Ahh thanks , didn’t think to try the app.

I just loaded the app and it’s giving me the option to switch protocols. Thanks !
