Today, my S26R2 broke down for the first time. It buzzes and does not provide power, the LEDs do not light up and after a while it causes a short circuit in the strip, activating the fuse.

It had only a year of light work… Oh well.

Shit happens, that’s how Forrest Gump put it. Simple, yet incredibly accurate! 🙂

@jam3 Do you have an S60 perhaps? Because now I’m wondering whether to buy an S60 or an S26R2 again…

No, I do not have any. But I use IKEA’s Tretakt. It pairs and works perfectly fine with HA and with iHost. Unfortunately, it doesn’t pair with NSPanel Pro. You may try it. It’s relatively cheap and it’s nicely designed.
