I have 3 of the switches. I did not need the hub, because I use my Echo 4th gen as the hub. That way I can use voice as a added control of the switches. Being able to turn off my kitchen and hallway entry lights with my bedroom Echo Show 5, is great!
Earlier I posted that I did not need the hub because I have the Echo 4th gen...well, I have discovered that I also don"t need the sensor. My Echo 4th gen. has a built in senor that allowed me to program the kitchen light to tun on when I enter the kitchen. I found Third Reality a great company to do business. I needed some additional spaces and they sent them to me free of charge and free shipping.
Works with Echo devices with built-in Zigbee hub (including Echo (4th Gen), Echo Plus (1st Gen and 2nd Gen), Echo Show 10 (2nd Gen and 3rd Gen) and Echo Studio. Also works with Eero 6, Eero 6 Pro, Smart things 2015/2018, Wink v2, Third Reality Hub, Third Reality Speaker with build-in Hub.
Hi.. thanks for a detailed video on this. I tried in paring the switch using the Alexa app both in 2.4 and 5 GHz but the switch is not getting discovered by Alexa app :(
They also now have a BLE version so that you can use a non-hub setup with an Echo Dot or Echo Show

That’s so good to hear!
If this works on zigbee, does that mean it will work with my Aqara Zigbee capable motion detector and door sensors?

I haven’t had a issue with this. Try restarting your device that you are pairing it too. I’m interested to hear if this was fixed
@@jaymediaone I did not have any problem pairing with Alexa.
