16-Channel Lighting Control with 2-Way/3-Way Switch Feedback & Home Assistant - davit.injgia - 12-28-2025

Hello,
I am looking for a KinCony solution for a professional home lighting automation setup.
Requirements:
  • 16-channel relay controller (220V AC)
  • Use of standard mechanical wall switches (2-way / 3-way)
  • Real light state feedback (Home Assistant must always know ON/OFF state, even when switched manually)
  • Mandatory Home Assistant integration (MQTT / ESPHome / native)
  • Minimal GPIO usage (no one-GPIO-per-switch design)
I have attached a photo of my current setup for reference.(https://drive.google.com/file/d/17L0_9mOzSJzJSaP6ZC6dlwZLy5PKl9dD/view?usp=drive_link)
It works electrically, but it is not scalable and uses too many wires/GPIOs. I want a clean, professional solution.
Questions:
  1. Which KinCony model(s) do you recommend?
  2. How is state feedback implemented (dry contact, relay feedback, current sensing, etc.)?
  3. Do you have wiring diagrams or documentation for this scenario?
Thank you.
Best regards,
Davit
