#looking for zigbee relay

Hi everyone!
I am looking for a relay to switch LED lighting from several LED diodes (Christmas decoration). The LEDs are powered by ~220V. The problem is that all the relays I have used have ghost voltage when turned off. Which causes the LED bulbs to not be off but to shine very dimly.
I have already tried these relays:
Aquara Relay Module T2 in the off state I measured ~50V
https://www.aqara.com/en/product/dual-relay-module-t2
Sonoff ZBMINIR2 in the off state I measured ~6V
https://sonoff.tech/en-eu/products/sonoff-zbmini-extreme-zigbee-smart-switch-zbminir2
I don't want to buy another relay just to try it. Does anyone have experience with a zigbee relay that has ~0V at the output when turned off?
Thanks for any recomendation.

Can I ask y why you’re not just using a smart plug? I have several Ikea ones for various AC Xmas LED “ropes”.

yes i tried
sonoff S60ZBTPF https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/S60ZBTPF.html
Tuya TS011F_plug_1 https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/TS011F_plug_1.html#tuya-ts011f_plug_1
Aqara SP-EUC01 https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/SP-EUC01.html
but the result was the same when switched off, I had ~6-12V

i am sure if you research it you can find the science on getting the right one to be fair.

I have both side ~220V

#

Input and output are ~220V

if you search for "led bypass capacitor" you will find a bunch of stuff on the subject

Ok thanks

# zealous lotus Ok thanks

no problem, the basics is that it gives the residual power an alternate route around the load because AC can go through a cap. (yes... this is oversimplified but analogue circuit theory is a dry subject...)

oh, I know what you were thinking, yes, I tried that too
