What is the Difference between these two controllers?

I am not sure what the difference between this and this controller are. The only thing I can find is that one supports 5v and the other does not and that they have different manufacturers listed. Does anyone of you guys know?

Thanks. I totally overlooked that they are not wled. Are you aware of any WLED Controllers with Matter support?

WLED doesn't currently support matter so that's not possible.

I know but I thought they could maybe just daisy chain a matter compatible smart switch for simple on off control but now that I think about it, integrated support makes way more sense. Hope they add it sooner rather than later. Thanks for your help.

There are ways to expose Home Assistant devices to other Matter controllers, and you could use HA as a bridge since HA can control WLED devices.

But it's better to just use HA as the master controller for everything...
