How to switch a 5V led lamp? (piefed.ca)

I've got a cheap salt lamp with a LED inside and it runs on a 5V wall wart. I think it originally had a USB plug but I cut that off and connected it to an old 5V power supply.

I've never used esp32, but I've been doing some reading and it seems like an esp32-c6 will allow me to do this with ZigBee.

Does this sound reasonable? Are there other options I should consider?

Did you mean esp8266 instead of 16?

That's precisely correct.
