Shelly Plus Wall Dimmer in-wall relay
Owner’s hands-on review ★★★★☆

Like most Shelly products, fantastic.

I have a handful of Shelly devices and love most of them, and these are no exception. It’s a dimmer that connects over wifi and I’ve only had a couple drop-offs, and an update since has made them not disconnect in ~5 months so I think that issue is resolved (Fingers crossed this review doesn’t jinx it).

Some of my LED bulbs only activate at ~40% brightness, and I think most of the settings to adjust “0%” to the point where your bulbs activate is only available via the shelly app, which to me is not a big deal but might be annoying to someone else, which drops them from a perfect score to a 4/5 for me.

Quick verdict

The Plus Wall Dimmer is Shelly's in-wall WiFi dimmer, and like other Shelly Plus gear it runs fully local through the native Home Assistant integration with no cloud account. You need a neutral and a four-wire install, and it lives on WiFi rather than a mesh, but it gives you local smart dimming without a coordinator.

Standout: In-wall WiFi dimmer with full local control through the native Home Assistant Shelly integration, no hub needed.

Local control facts

  • Home Assistant: shelly integration, Local Push, Platinum on the quality scale (home-assistant.io, checked Sep 10, 2026)

Why it stands out

  • in-wall WiFi dimmer with full local control via the native Home Assistant Shelly integration
  • local web interface works without internet or Shelly Cloud
  • acts as a WiFi range extender and Bluetooth gateway for Shelly BLU devices

Reasons to hesitate

  • requires a neutral wire and a four-wire install
  • WiFi rather than a mesh protocol, so it adds to your 2.4GHz device count
  • dimmable LED load limit is lower than the incandescent rating, so check your bulbs

Best for

  • Home Assistant users who want a local WiFi in-wall dimmer without a Zigbee or Z-Wave coordinator
  • rooms where you want both smart dimming and a working physical paddle

Avoid if

  • your switch box has no neutral wire
  • you prefer to keep lighting on a Zigbee or Z-Wave mesh rather than WiFi

Privacy and local-control notes

WiFi dimmer with a local web interface and local API. The native Home Assistant Shelly integration controls it locally with no Shelly Cloud account required.
