  It does its job exactly as it should, quite small fits relatively comfortably behind a typical switch.

  The first one I bought burned out and they replaced it under warranty. They told me at the store that it might be the Shelly with the most faults. However, the second one I got works perfectly. Impressive result. It has the ability for offline operation, which is independent of the internet and has better responsiveness. I operate it in combination with the Shelly i4 AC. Don't forget to calibrate it.

  Excellent purchase. I have had it for about two weeks for two LED bulbs in my office. I bought it to replace a SonOff and in my opinion, it is superior in every way. The setup is very easy, the settings in its WebUI are very helpful. I use it locally with Home Assistant. I highly recommend it.

  Following my search for solutions in Shelly products for creating a common platform and going beyond Sonoff-type Chinese automation, I purchased the Shelly Dimmer 2.

  I should mention that the dimmer was intended to replace a Schneider dimmer from the Sedna series, which always had trouble dimming the difficult PAR30 E27 Spotlight bulbs that I have installed on a single-phase rail. The old Sedna dimmer couldn't dim the bulbs below 50%... Below 50%, they would start flickering.

  I installed the dimmer with a neutral wire, and initially, I was disappointed that it didn't dim the bulbs at all.

  As I started looking into why, I came across the "Calibration" feature and to my surprise, I found a plethora of settings to adjust the dimming specifically for the bulbs you have.

  There are all sorts of settings, from the type of dimming (leading edge or trailing edge), warm-up function, for specific bulbs, anti-flickering mode, and many more. I performed auto calibration, and the dimmer now dims the bulbs down to 3%!!! which is an incredibly low number.

  So, 5 stars from me.

  I will change the wiring by purchasing the bypass filter, trying to operate it without a neutral wire to give you a complete picture of what the dimmer can do in all possible installation topologies.

  I should mention here that the dimmer can be installed in circuits without a neutral wire with a single modification, changing the switches to push-buttons.

  Lastly, it has an even better feature. The dimmer supports recording power consumption and exporting it to CSV files. It's a versatile tool and comes at a very good price for what it offers.
