Does anyone know of a Zigbee device with the functionality of the Aeotec ZW116 nano switch?

Can you be more specific about which functionality specifically you’re looking for?

Switching light circuits on/off in a two way configuration with the existing light switches. So you can turn on/off with homey or by flicking the physical switch

If that’s all you need, a Sonoff ZBMINI or ZBMINIL2 probably fits the bill.

Thanks very much Robert. Much cheaper than the ZW116 also. The only thing you lose is a power reading but that’s not really required for light.
