Model: HS220  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

Hi all --

 

Attempting to install the HS220 in an old home w/o neutral wires in the switch boxes. The walls are plaster and not easy to make new runs, I do have access to the doorbell low voltage (20v / 18 or 24 guage) neutral wire within a foot of my switch.

 

Does anyone know the load on the neutral wire from the switch? I assume its just for the wifi and power requirements are minimal but want to confirm what they are and if that is an option. I'm already running a Nest doorbell off the same doorbell wiring I imagine the switch has about the same load if it's for the same type of wifi chip.

 

Thanks much
