Thank you so much! Yup, I actually didn’t realize I didn’t have to transfer my domain to Cloudflare and I could simply use their servers. I managed to add the domain to Cloudflare, changed the DNS servers to Cloudflare’s servers on Namecheap’s interface and successfully got a cert from LE using my Cloudflare API key, so I think it’s good now? Just need to set up a ddns client since my router’s client (OpenWRT) doesn’t seem to support updating Cloudflare. Also, now I need to get my $50 back…

Here’s a picture of my hole just for you 😏

Good to know a product exists though, I’ll try to look it up, thank you!

I would avoid any switches/dimmers that require cloud accounts and instead always try for local control. To that end, consider Z-Wave or ZigBee (or Matter), where you can have local control.

Any particular brands you would recommend? (I’m in a similar situation as OP)
