Hey smarthome peeps, I need some help. I'm looking for recommendations on a smart switch. :otter_peek:

The switch is for a box that doesn't have a neutral wire. The circuit also needs to remain powered at all times because it has Hue bulbs on it. Since we don't have any Z-wave or ZigBee devices (aside from the Hue bulbs themselves) I'm not sure if a ZigBee or Z-wave switch would work, but every WiFi-only switch seems to phone home to a central server.

Currently we have about five of these [Kaufman RGB switches](https://kaufha.com/srf10/ ) that were built using ESP modules, but they require a neutral wire so we can't use them everywhere.

Does anyone have any recommendations? :blobfoxreachaww:
