Since a set price does not automatically adjust to the individual prices, it may happen that the set price is higher after a reduction of the individual price than if the individual items were ordered separately.

No, this has a battery.
If the two wires from the module are short-circuited via a connected wall switch contact, there is a Hue signal.
I do not recommend exposing these wires to a voltage of 230V as the insulation is not suitable for this.
The 230V wires previously switched with the switch must be short-circuited so that there is continuous voltage on the lamp.
In terms of safety, this intervention in the electrical installation should be carried out by a licenced specialist, as is the case with any lamp installation. So that this is also mentioned.

Yes, you need to remove the initial switch, disconnect it from the power supply, attach the Philips system instead, connect it to the switch and put it back on as before. (The HUE system is then located between the electrical connection and your switch.
If needed, Philips has videos on their website explaining how to do this. :)
The lamp is not always lit. The only thing that always needs power is the WLan receiver built into the lamp.

Yes, you've got it right: the module does not switch the power directly, but recognises the press of the switch and sends a radio signal to the Hue Bridge to control compatible Philips Hue lamps. You cannot use it to switch any other LED lamps as it only works with the Philips Hue system. The lamp itself must be permanently supplied with power, which is achieved by diverting the phase with the Wago terminal.

The module acts as a control device, not as a direct power switch. It sends commands to the bridge, which then switches devices. It is therefore not physically connected directly to lamps/sockets. The wall switch module works with Hue lights and also with the Hue Smart Plug as long as both are integrated via the Hue Bridge and have been linked accordingly in the app.

No, the wall switch module cannot be installed behind a dimmer switch. The module only works with conventional on/off switches or push-buttons. Although it can provide a dimming function via the software, it does not replace a physical dimmer switch and cannot control it.

No, you cannot connect the wall switch module directly to a dimmer switch. It is battery-powered and installed behind an existing mechanical wall switch or push-button to control Hue lamps smartly, and the light must be permanently supplied with power.

The wall switch module does not work directly with dimmer switches, but you can use the dimming function via a push-button.
The module is designed for classic on/off switches or push-buttons. If you connect a push-button, you can dim the light and brighten it again by pressing and holding it. Dimming is not possible with a normal light switch. The dimming function is controlled by the software via the Hue app, not by the physical switch itself.

Hardly
Hello, why the i4 DC variant? Do you have a low-voltage DC line at the push-button? Otherwise you need the 230v version.
Please note: The Shelly does not have Zigbee. So it cannot be integrated directly into the bridge. So you would have to tinker with something like sending commands to the bridge via http or, even better, use a control centre such as Home Assistant or similar.
You could also use a normal Shelly 1 (possibly mini) and deactivate the relay (pure input detection like i4). Then you still have the option of using the relay if required and de-energising the lamp if necessary.
Do you have a neutral conductor for the button/switch? You need this for most Shellys.

The Philips Hue wall switch module is specially designed to control smart Philips Hue lamps, rooms or zones by installing it behind an existing light switch. It enables switching on and off as well as switching through up to three light scenes via the switch. This module is not intended to control blinds (shutters) as it is only designed for light control in the Philips Hue system.

Hello
You need to reset the module and select push-button rather than rocker at the beginning of the installation.

The wall switch module is installed behind the existing light switch and makes it smart-enabled without replacing the switch itself. It acts as an interface between the physical switch and the Hue Bridge by converting the switching commands of the original switch into smart commands.
How it works in detail:
- Installation: The module is installed in the flush-mounted box behind the light switch. The power supply to the lamp is switched to continuous current (e.g. with a Wago terminal) so that Hue lights are constantly supplied with power.
- Switch control: The original switch remains active, but no longer sends a power interruption to the lamp. Instead, the module recognises the switching operations and transmits them as a signal to the Hue Bridge.
- Scene control: Up to three light scenes can be configured per switch via the Hue app. These scenes are switched through by repeatedly pressing the switch (on/off).
- Push-button compatibility: When using a push-button (instead of a switch), the module also enables dimming by a long press.
The module is therefore not a separate switch, but uses the existing switch as an input device for Smart commands. The physical switch continues to control the module, which forwards the commands to the Hue Bridge.

The module has two independent channels. Several push-buttons (impulse push-buttons) can be connected per channel.

Hello, I can answer the question myself. If you configure the wall switch module as a toggle switch then it works as desired. The switch is not a toggle switch but the behaviour seems to be the same :-).
Helpful answer
Yes, it works
Fibaro has products - but with zWave protocol which requires an additional gateway for use with HomeKit.
Fibaro also has a HomeKit only solution that uses Bluetooth, but this is then really only HomeKit.
Relay (on/off): Fibaro relay flush-mounted insert 2 switches
Dimmer: Fibaro universal dimmer 2 250W
I use the wall switch module with a Conbee II, so not with a Hue Bridge either. However, I don't know whether it actually works with the IKEA Hub.

No and yes. The WSM is only connected to the physical switch. If this is activated, the WSM sends a zigbee command to the bridge. This then switches whatever is programmed. The motion detector does the same. The cables that were previously on the switch are bridged with a WAGO 221. The load is therefore always on. Of course, you can use the WSM in parallel with the motion detector and control the same device. But you cannot control the WSM. Here you need a Shelly 1 or 1PM (possibly Mini) and homeassistant.

One module has two inputs. Yes, 2 lamps are possible. Please note that both must be switches or push-buttons. You can configure switches or push-buttons in the Hue app.
This turns normal switches into Hue switches.
Via homeassitant with shelly plus 2pm , yes. Not directly
