  I am writing this review because I had to intervene, like many others, by removing the resistors so that the lights would not turn off on their own whenever they wanted! After that, it works perfectly.

  It is the 2nd one I am getting, the 1st one broke due to a short circuit from one of the bulbs. So far, it has no issues and works correctly. It connects easily, just needs the switch to have a neutral for the power.

  I give it 5 stars after removing the resistors as the other reviewers mentioned, whom I thank! Before this, it was doing its own thing!
  update 20/2/23 I bought another one and it came in a different colored box, obviously it's a newer model and this one works perfectly without needing to remove the resistors like I did with the previous ones I had!

  Finally, there is a way to permanently stop ghost switching (random turning on) without anyone having to intervene on the circuit board, just by purchasing, if you don't already have it, the RM433 remote control.

  So, if the problem persists after you have synchronized it, do the following:
  Press and hold the bottom left button (you will hear a short sound).
  Then, turn off the power to the Dimmer for a while.
  After resetting it, press and hold the first button (top left). This way, you will resynchronize the remote control with the dimmer and the annoying problem of random turning on will be solved.

  You may need to repeat the process, although it worked for me the first time. It has been two months now and the dimmer works perfectly.

  It is true that it often experiences the so-called ghost switching, meaning that it turns on by itself without receiving a power command. The solution is to remove the resistors shown in the photo from the circuit board. Essentially, the RF is eliminated, as it was the reason for its erratic behavior. After the small "intervention," the order was restored and D1 functions perfectly.

  Having tried three different switches, the problem is permanent. I couldn't find a way to overcome it, and unlike the company's other products, this particular one is not reliable.
  *update, if you open it and remove resistors R6 R7 R8 R9 + R11 R12 R13 R14 (written on the board) with a sharp object, it will work fine from now on. It may not work with wireless operation at 433mhz, but it is rare for someone to need it, so it is a practical solution.

  I have exactly the same problem with others!
  It turns on whenever it wants without logic, without a specific frequency, without anything interfering with its operating frequency!
  I have tried many tests but nothing can fix the light after 2 minutes or maybe even after 2 days!
  I chose it because I have heard the best about Sonoff!
  I hope the company can solve the problem in the future, maybe with a software upgrade for the D1.
  What a shame!

  Unfortunately, it turns on by itself randomly. It may work fine for 2-3 days and the next day you wake up and the light is on! I tried everything, uninstalled and reinstalled it without success. I read that there are many people abroad who report similar problems, which is a shame because it is a very interesting and affordable product. I should note that the regular (non-dimmable) switches from Sonoff that I have work without any issues, only the D1 is defective.

  It has been driving me crazy! It dims on its own whenever it wants, but it also turns the light on and off by itself. I have inserted a Blitzwolf switch and all it does now is dim. At least I can turn it off at night because before it would turn on by itself.
  If you remove the infrared code from the remote control, something happens...
  It's a shame because Sonoff is a great and good company.

  In the end, I removed the RF connection from the board... as friends mentioned above... and everything is okay!
  Thank you.
