Sonoff ZBMINI-L2 (EU): what it works with
Sonoff · model ZBMINIL2 · For Europe
- Matter Unconfirmed
- Apple Home Unconfirmed
- Google Home Via SONOFF Zigbee gateway (e.g. ZBBridge-P, NSPanel Pro, iHost)
- Amazon Alexa Via Echo with built-in Zigbee hub
- SmartThings Via SmartThings Hub V3 / Aeotec Hub V3
- Home Assistant Via Zigbee coordinator (e.g. SONOFF ZBDongle-P/E)
For a switch box with no neutral, the Sonoff ZBMINI-L2 (also sold as ZBMINI Extreme) is a small 6 A Zigbee relay that keeps your wall switch working through its S1/S2 inputs. It is not dimmable and needs a Zigbee 3.0 gateway: a Sonoff gateway for Google Home, an Echo with built-in Zigbee for Alexa, a SmartThings Hub V3, or a Zigbee coordinator with ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT for Home Assistant. Apple Home is not confirmed.

“Via Matter” means you add it with that platform's Matter controller instead of a brand skill or app. “Unconfirmed” means we couldn't find an official source either way. How we verify.
Specs that matter for setup
- Radio: Zigbee 3.0 end device; it does not relay Zigbee traffic for other devices.
- Hub: Needs a Zigbee 3.0 gateway such as the SONOFF ZBBridge, NSPanel Pro, iHost or a supported Echo or SmartThings hub.
- Local control: Sonoff's pages say it works with local-capable gateways, but no page states local control explicitly.
- Form: 39.5 x 32 x 18.4 mm relay for the back box of an existing switch, with S1/S2 inputs for the wall switch.
- Dimmer: On/off relay, 6 A.
- Needs neutral wire: Sold as no-neutral; the lamp's own neutral is used. Minimum load is about 3 W and flash suppression modules are not supported.
- Gangs / channels: Sonoff's pages describe one relay output with S1/S2 switch inputs but don't state a channel or gang count; only retailers say single-channel.
