Aqara Single Switch Module T1 (No Neutral)

Verified July 2026

A polished no-neutral Zigbee relay (model SSM-U02) that pairs directly with Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA — no Aqara hub needed, despite what the box says. Pricier than the Sonoff equivalent, but build quality and power-failure memory are excellent; a with-neutral version (SSM-U01) adds energy monitoring.

Device temperatureSensor (°C)Onboard temperature — the only load-strain proxy, since this no-neutral model has no power/energy sensor

The no-neutral design has a real load ceiling worth knowing before wiring it in — independent testing puts it at a 3W minimum and 1250W maximum, notably lower than the 2200W figure sometimes quoted for this line. There's no power/energy sensor at all on this no-neutral variant (only the with-neutral SSM-U01 sibling meters), so the useful signal instead is device_temperature — worth an automation alerting if the relay is running hot under sustained load near that ceiling, since there's no wattage reading to infer strain from directly.
