Eaton 2nd Gen Smart WiFi Devices

I bought one so you don't have to. (Edit: at least until Eaton supports Matter over WiFi)

Eaton EWSW15

These devices connect to Azure IOT Platform. While I am sure Eaton has a great deal for that, it means that every time I turn the lights on or off, Azure gets paid a small amount of money.

The switch, while not multi-touch capable, will wait 0.5s before turning the load on or off.

In an event of a network connection disruption, when you are back online the switch will take ~5 minutes to become available in the app. There is no local control even though the ESP32-C3-MINI1 (datasheet) module can do this. The unit is provisioned with WiFi credentials over Bluetooth but other than that Bluetooth is not used.

And when you use schedules, the status LED does not correspond to the actual state of the switch.

I am still debating whether to give Schneider Electric Matter-over-WiFi a try, but the more I read the specs the more I become convinced that Z-Wave network I already have is the best.

Edit: https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us/products/wiring-devices-connectivity/Matter.html suggests that at some point these WiFi devices will gain Matter support. If/when that happens, these switches, dimmers, and receptacles will become much more useful.
