Mi-Light E3-ZR Zigbee 3.0 3-in-1 LED Controller – Zigbee & 2.4GHz Smart Controller for RGB, RGBW and RGB+CCT LED Strips
The Mi-Light E3-ZR Zigbee 3.0 3-in-1 LED Controller combines the flexibility of Zigbee 3.0 smart home control with the convenience of Mi-Light 2.4GHz wireless remotes, allowing you to control your LED lighting by smartphone, voice assistant, wall panel or handheld remote. Supporting RGB, RGBW and RGB+CCT LED strip lighting, the E3-ZR is ideal for smart homes, media walls, kitchens, feature lighting, campervans, motorhomes, boats, retail displays and commercial installations. Compatible with popular Zigbee hubs including Philips Hue*, Amazon Echo (with built-in Zigbee hub), Samsung SmartThings, Home Assistant and Tuya Zigbee gateways, it delivers fast, reliable smart lighting control whilst remaining fully compatible with the extensive Mi-Light range of 2.4GHz remotes and wall-mounted control panels.
Compatible with Three Popular Colour-Changing LED Strip Types
The E3-ZR has been designed specifically for colour-changing LED lighting and supports:
- RGB LED strips – Full colour changing with smooth dimming.
- RGBW LED strips – Millions of RGB colours plus a dedicated white LED for practical everyday lighting.
- RGB+CCT LED strips – Full RGB colour changing together with adjustable warm white to cool white lighting from a single LED strip.
Simply configure the controller to match your chosen LED strip during installation.
Zigbee 3.0 Smart Home Integration
Using the latest Zigbee 3.0 protocol, the E3-ZR integrates easily into many of today’s leading smart home ecosystems.
Compatible with many Zigbee gateways including:
- Philips Hue Bridge*
- Amazon Echo devices with built-in Zigbee hub
- Samsung SmartThings
- Home Assistant (ZHA / Zigbee2MQTT)
- Tuya Zigbee Gateways
- Other Zigbee 3.0 compatible hubs
Once paired, your lighting can be controlled via smartphone apps, schedules, automations and voice assistants depending on your chosen Zigbee platform.
Also Compatible with Mi-Light 2.4GHz Remotes
Unlike most Zigbee LED controllers, the E3-ZR doesn’t force you to choose between smart home control and handheld remotes—you get both. Control your lighting through your Zigbee ecosystem, or simply pick up a Mi-Light remote or use a wall panel whenever it’s more convenient.
This allows you to pair the controller with compatible:
- Handheld remotes
- Wall-mounted touch panels
- Single-zone remotes
- Multi-zone remotes
Giving you the convenience of both smart home control and traditional wireless remote operation from the same controller. View our range of compatible remotes here.
Flexible Control Options
Depending on your installation, the controller can be operated using:
- Smartphone app (via a compatible Zigbee hub)
- Voice assistants
- Mi-Light handheld remotes
- Mi-Light wall-mounted control panels
- Home automation routines
- Timers and schedules
Choose whichever control method best suits your installation.
