SwitchBot SwitchBot Bot Flush-mounted switching actuator, battery 3V, range up to 80 m, 43×37×24 mm

The SwitchBot SwitchBot Bot Flush-mounted switching actuator is a compact battery-powered device designed to provide remote on/off control for compatible circuits and appliances when installed in-wall or inside junction boxes. Measuring 43×37×24 mm and running on a 3 V battery, the unit supports wireless operation with an outdoor range up to 80 m and is intended for retrofit smart switch applications, lighting control and small appliance automation. Typical use includes integration with the SwitchBot App for local Bluetooth control and optional connection to a SwitchBot Hub for extended remote access, voice assistants and cloud-based automations. A two-year warranty is provided.

Advantages

The flush-mounted design allows discreet installation behind existing rocker switches or in electrical boxes without altering visible switch hardware. Battery power removes the need for additional wiring and simplifies retrofit installation. The device offers wide wireless range for outdoor line-of-sight control and long battery life under typical usage patterns. Compatibility with common rocker switches and one-way buttons makes it suitable for a variety of household devices and appliances. Integration options with the SwitchBot App and SwitchBot Hub expand functionality to scheduled timers, remote access and voice control.

How to use

Install the SwitchBot Bot into the available space behind the target switch or inside a junction box and secure it with the supplied 3M Add-on sticker or appropriate mounting method. Pair the device with the SwitchBot App over Bluetooth to configure basic on/off control and create local timers. For remote access, voice assistant integration and Matter/HomeKit support, add a SwitchBot Hub and connect it to a 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi network. Follow local electrical safety guidelines and switch off power when accessing live wiring; installation may require a qualified electrician if mains wiring work is involved.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, verify physical compatibility with the target rocker switch or button and ensure the actuator is positioned to actuate the switch travel cleanly. Use the SwitchBot App to set schedules and check battery status periodically. When remote control and voice integration are required, pair the device with a SwitchBot Hub on a stable 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi network. Avoid installing the unit in locations with excessive moisture or temperatures outside the device’s specified range.
