Looking for RGB CCT/RGBW Controller Recommendations (eWeLink & Apple Home Compatibility)

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for advice on finding an RGB CCT or RGBW controller that works with the eWeLink app and, ideally, the Sonoff Zigbee Bridge Ultra (ZigBridge-U). If nothing is compatible, I’m open to getting a Matter-compatible hub to use the controller with both eWeLink and Apple Home.

Here’s my setup and requirements:
• Running 24V LED strips (RGB CCT or RGBW)
• The controller needs to support 24 volts and handle a decent amp rating (15–20 amps at 24V)
• Compatibility with both eWeLink and Apple Home is key

If there’s no controller for the Zigbee Bridge Ultra, I don’t mind buying a dedicated hub just for this use case.

Does anyone have recommendations for:
1. A controller that works with the Zigbee Bridge Ultra?
2. A system where the controller connects to a different hub for both platforms?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Sonoff Zigbee Bridge Ultra works as a matter hub after the update.
You can use this RGBCW controller ( Zemismart ZML3 , or ZML3(CW) )

I appreciate your response, i will test it out!

The new update is the one string holding me back from using the bridge Ultra as a Ethernet connect door stopper :rofl:
