As a result, you can smart control garden lights, while keeping existing 2-way switching of B and C. Issue now: Some of the smart light switches when manually touched to power-on failed to immediately initiate light on, it would take about 5 seconds while keeping your finger pressed on the switch and then power on or off. I have found out those switches the exhibit this issue was the 1st batch installed since 2020. The recent (< 3 months) smart switches installed did not have this issue and power on immediately when touched activated. You’ll find instructions for installing a C by GE C-Start Smart Switch Motion Sensing+Dimmer on a multi-way circuit here, but the upshot is that you’ll need a C by GE smart switch on all the other legs of the circuit. Powered off the router and then manual touch activate immediately fixed the issue with the response time being instant. (Light Switch is not connected to the internet) Another selling point for many homeowners is that Cync offers some of the few smart switches that don't require a neutral wire during installation. The Cync Dimmer + Motion Sensing Smart Switch does need a ground wire in addition to line and load wires, as is typical with single-pole switches.

Upgrade your lighting system effortlessly with our smart dimmer modules, designed as a direct replacement for traditional “dumb” dimmers. With this innovative modules from Samotech, you can easily transform your lights into smart devices, enabling both physical and remote control through a mobile app. The Samotech SM323 v2 Zigbee modules are compatible with Philips Hue bridge, Home Assistant, Homekit, Smartthings, Echo Plus, and many more. If that's the case, I would suggest just replacing the mechanism of switch A with a smart swith mechanism. And choice of smart switch mechanism will depend on whether you have NEUTRAL handy or not. (if NEUTRAL is not handy, you can only choose smart switch that does not require NEUTRAL. Say the DETA smart switch mechanism from Bunnings) I have over 50+ IOT device connected at home from smart switches, power points, sensors etc. The Deta smart switches has been working really good and to be honest there really has not been any issues. I have 2 Asus routers in mesh mode that connects everything together and has proven to be working fine. If your smart switch has pigtails, like the one in our example, twist the like wires together (neutral to neutral, load to load, and so on) and secure each of them with a wire nut.Two Way Switching: This is quite easily achieved via 'the app'. I actually had two in the home (I wasn't even aware of one of them! – recent move). You simply set up some automation where one switch turns the other one or off, and also vice-versa. One possible issue is that for a 2-way switch for stair lighting for example, where you may have a multi-gang switch at one end, the upper and ground floor may be on separate circuits. As the Deta switch only has the 'one-input' (probably typical I assume) this will cause the RCD to trip. Possible solutions are to either convert the multi-gang switch to two separate switches or as in my case the sparky calculated that the one-circuit for lighting will be sufficient as I have LED downlights throughout and no heat lamps for example.

In most organisations there is a high level of energy wastage happening. We are consistently saving our clients 50-80% on their electricity/energy usage whilst also IMPROVING their current light levels!. I had a number of the Deta switches installed recently and can advise the following for anyone interested in the experience and handling certain case issues. Could I buy a smart switch on each end with one being a 2 gang and the other a 3 gang and it will work as a 2 way switch? Had it wired in and it does work without a neutral. There is some capacitor whine which is a bit annoying when trying to sleep, and I wonder if the neutral would prevent that (probably not). TIMER AND COUNTDOWN FUNCTION: Support to set max up to 100 group timer setting. Set the specific turn on and turn off time for your home appliances. Don't need to worry harm your home appliances by setting time automatic control switch. (This mainly depends on the load-carrying capacity of the router)In short, yes. The Deta smart switches can't physically be wired as 2-way switches, so you would get your sparky to hook up only one of the smart switches to physically control the lights for the meals room and kitchen. They would then bypass the wiring behind the 2nd smart switch so that it no longer functions as a 2-way switch, and isn't actually connected to anything (besides the power in and the neutral, so that it has power and can be connected to wifi). A smart bulb is an internet-connected light bulb, often with color-changing effects, that you can fit into lighting fixtures like lamps and control through an app or voice commands. While smart bulbs are best for controlling individual fixtures, smart light switches could be the better option if you want to control and dim non-smart lights attached to a light switch in your home. Installation is straightforward and can be completed in just about 10 minutes. It’s compatible with the wiring found in UK homes of any era, so there’s no requirement for a neutral wire. However, if a neutral wire is available, connecting it to the module is recommended for better control and stable lighting. Essentially, using the neutral wire negates the need for a bypass when using low-wattage LED bulbs. While it costs more than the typical individual smart switch, Lutron's Caseta Smart Dimmer Starter Kit provides an ideal entry point for homeowners upgrading to smart lighting. The included Caseta Smart Bridge hooks up to your Wi-Fi router and serves as the hub for any Caseta Wireless products you own. Setting up the Smart Bridge is straightforward, as is installing the in-wall dimmer switch that doesn't require neutral wiring, unlike most smart switches. Both smart lighting products involve some app or smart home setup, but switches also require wiring and assistance from an electrician. On the other hand, you can set up a smart bulb in minutes without wiring; just screw in the bulb and set up the connection in the companion app.

And regardless of the legality or otherwise – if you can't work it out (and it will be straightforward) you definitely shouldn't be doing this yourself.This roundup was researched and written by Anton Galang, a freelance contributor who began covering consumer technology in 2007. He has written about and tested a variety of tech-focused products for The Spruce and Lifewire, including digital picture frames, smart plugs, and other smart home devices. I thnk you can consider replacing the midde and bottom switch with the DETA smart switch mechanism instead: After the single-pole switch, 3-way wall switches are the next most common type of switch in homes. They allow you to control a light (or set of lights) from two separate locations—think the top and bottom of a staircase or either end of a hallway. Upgrading that with smart features gives you even more flexibility in controlling your lights, and Kasa Smart's 3-Way Wi-Fi Light Switch is a simple, affordable, and effective way to do so. You only need one new 3-way smart switch, as it will still work in conjunction with a traditional, non-smart 3-way switch. Samotech SM323 v2 dimmer modules offer a convenient and efficient solution for upgrading your lights to a smart system. With a wide compatibility with various Zigbee hubs, energy-saving automation capabilities, and seamless integration with your current lighting infrastructure, our dimmers provide a comprehensive and user-friendly solution for modernizing your home lighting. Enjoy the convenience of remote control, smart automation, and effortless installation with Samotech dimmers. Comparison Chart It looks like there is some sort of data log limit issue, every time you switch on/off the light this is recorded during the cloud polling via the internet. Disconnecting the internet fixes the issue or doing a factory reset on the smart switches fixes it.

Sensor Lighting: I had an external light that was connected to a PIR sensor. Typically this is not possible to do as the sensor will retain control. What we did to 'solve' this was to get a smart sensor (I used a Brilliant make) and then use the trigger from this to turn the switch for the external light on. The wire from the sensor to the switch is not required or shouldn't be used (can't remember). In this case use the app to provide an automation to set the switch on with the sensor 'motion detected on' and then use 'motion detected off' to turn the switch off. I initially was using the 'switch off' trigger on the sensor to try to turn the light off but this didn't work. We specified our 150W Premium HLC LED high bay light that not only outperformed their old fittings for brightness but used a fraction of the electricity cost. They can now look forward to exceptional lighting levels whilst reducing their overheads. A win, win situation all round! Advanced settings in the app include a "gentle off" feature to fade the lights at a speed of your choosing and customizable actions for when you double-tap or long-press the button. If you have other Kasa Smart products, the switch can also use Smart Actions to turn those devices on or off simultaneously. It's capped at three Smart Actions, though, which can be limiting if your home is full of smart devices that you want to control all at once. Beyond that, you can decide if you want something more than an on/off toggle, like a dimmer or motion sensors. If you already have a whole suite of smart home devices in play, you might consider a switch with a display that serves as a central control panel.A growing variety of broader smart home environments, such as Z-Wave wireless or brand-specific smart hubs, opens the options for integrating your switches. If you already use a particular platform or app and are happy and familiar with it, you probably won't appreciate having to use something different just for your smart switches.
