  • Tasmota

    Alternative firmware for ESP8266 and ESP32 based devices with easy configuration using webUI, OTA updates, automation using timers or rules, expandability and entirely local control over MQTT, HTTP, Serial or KNX. Full documentation at

  • If you reflash the Shelly with Tasmota, ESPHome, or WLED, I believe you can explicitly define the PWM frequency, as well as the min/max dimming levels. I use ESPHome with Home Assistant (and explicitly define the PWM frequency), but even if you used Tasmota, you could masquerade it as a Philips Hue or Belkin WeMo device to use with your Echo for now. WLED can connect to Alexa as well.

  • WLED

    Control WS2812B and many more types of digital RGB LEDs with an ESP8266 or ESP32 over WiFi!

    ESPHome is a system to control your ESP8266/ESP32 by simple yet powerful configuration files and control them remotely through Home Automation systems.
