Haven't tried yet. Paring devices directly to each other in smartthings is a problem, but want to try setting this up as a separate device that can control other devices through smartthings. Only reason for not prioritising this yet is that it Probably Won't work very well due to the time delay from performing action to propagating down into other device. Would be interesting testing this though 😊

Thanks for your replay. I was thinking about the scenario you propose, controlling though ST. If The delay is below 200ms I think it will be quite usable. Do you have any experience on delays on ST?

The motivation to use this dimmer is the aesthetics and operational "feel", not necessarily to use it together with the dimmer in the same series :)

Agreed, Could use it to drive fibaro dimmer for instance. However i have experienced delay of ~2 sec in a similar scenario - where I have 2 light switches connected through ST with fibaro switch behind the physical switches.

Hi.
Did any of you guys (@nilskaa and @sveip ) proceed with this experiement? I'm currently using several of the Elko 316GLED Dimmers in my smart home (SmartThings). They work excellently thanks to your Device Handler @nilskaa . However a couple of them were bought through the electrician as the dimmer/endevender kit. I really could use the Endevenders as additional buttons in a few locations. I would love using these simply because of their design. I have other buttons that could do the job (Xiaomi etc) but their design is awful. I could live with the delay you mention.

I have tried pairing the endevender and it shows up in ST as a Thing. However none of the bulit in Zigbee device handlers work and I really don't have the knowledge to know which parameters to tweak in order to write a new device handler myself.

Would really appreciate some help here if possible.

Hi, I have not followed this up myself. I have however been told that someone managed to pair (as you did) and tweek a dh to submit events upon pressing the button. Then picking this up in WebCore to switch on/off something. The delay was apparently only 1-2 seconds and acceptible. It should not be hard to write a DH for this and perhaps map the on/off events to an on/off cluster to avoid the WebCore part. I still have not acquired the remote dimmer, so can't do much to help here yet.

I opened up a pull request for the endevender device handler. @nilskaa can you consider merging it?
