I have one of the Hue ones that seems neat but I haven't installed it yet (it entirely bypasses the mains power for the switch which is a bit different to most of them), only works with smart bulbs though so not much good if you want to replace a switch controlling loads of lights or spots or something . I also have a Sonoff one (that I also haven't installed yet) that looks relatively easy to set up.
Worth having a look at the wiring in the switch to see if there is a neutral there or not as that will influence what you need. (Although I think the Hue one should work with any wiring set up).

that's useful thanks, the switches I was trying to think of were the shelley ones.
but the 1l seems to be sold out everywhere so it may be moot (i did find 1 in stock so ordered to test it out and see they fare).
we have the stuff to mount over all the switches that we acquired while renting to start us off and I can retrofit most of this kind of stuff later on so I'm in no major rush there but i'm also going to be building 4 new rooms in our summerhouse from the studs up and I want it to be wired perfectly for every conceivable scenario I might have for it so I can make sure it has all the neutrals and other stuff it will need which should hopefully make my life a little easier and widen my options there.
what are the forum recommended smart light switch modules that are hue compatible?
