Hue Dimmer Switch Adapter

Most Hue users with a dimmer switch will have one big problem: they want to use their dimmer switch instead of their traditional light switch. Removing the traditional light switch by connecting cables and putting the dimmer switch over the hole isn't suitable for everyone. To solve this issue, I designed the Hue Dimmer Switch Adapter! You must remove your original frame and the top of your switch and mount the adapter frame right over your original switch. The adapter frame can be mounted with glue or four screws directly to the wall. The top of the frame is designed to match the back of the Hue mounting plate so you can snap your Hue mounting plate onto the adapter frame. This adapter has one big advantage: you don't have to touch your traditional light switch at all, because the adapter frame covers it completely. If you ever want to use your traditional light switch again, simply remove the Hue plate and you'll have access to your switch through the adapter frame. The adapter frame comes in several versions: - Universal: The universal frame is designed to fit most light switches but needs to be glued or screwed directly to the wall. - Raw: A raw frame where you can cut a hole for your light switch series on your own and exactly to your needs. This frame is available with 11mm and 13mm inner height, which means how much space is inside the adapter for the traditional light switch. - Berker Modul 2: A version made specifically for the Berker Modul 2 light switch series, which can be mounted using the original Berker mounting tool/frame. - Berker S1: A version made specifically for the Berker S1 light switch series, which can be mounted using the original Berker mounting tool/frame. - Legrand Creo: A version designed for Legrand Creo light switches, which can be mounted using the original Legrand mounting tool/frame. - Legrand Diplomat: This version includes two parts for easier printing and doesn't require gluing them together; simply mount them on the light switch. Tolerances and gaps are fine-tuned to give a perfect fit. I printed the frames on Ultimaker 3 and Ultimaker S5 with perfect results. If something doesn't fit, check your printer settings, flow, horizontal expansion or scale the model a little bit to fit your needs.
