@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Thanks for watching! I think I walked out to my electrical panel probably 100 times installing and uninstalling all of these switches… and it’s been 115° outside 🥵 But it was interesting to compare these and here’s the link to the article smarthomesolver.com/reviews/ultimate-smart-light-switch-comparison/

@rogersmj 3 года назад

Nice work. Having installed dozens of smart switches I can only imagine how long it took to make this comparison. I agree with your criticism of the GE z-wave switch in that it’s not intuitive. I used to have some of these, and the non-configurable fade on/off combined with no separate dimmer control caused no end of frustration with guests and even my wife - people would tap it, but because the fade causes a perceived delay they would sometimes hold it a little too long, which would activate the dimming mode. really irritated people. That’s why I switched to the Leviton z-wave dimmers, which have a separate dimmer control alongside the main paddle. Have you ever tried the Leviton switches?

@apevny 3 года назад

So I am new to the inovelli red dimmer. I bought a few for it’s smart home capability. My setup currently is for down press I used a bond bridge to turn off the fan, one press up low, 2 presses for medium, 3 for high. I’m wondering if there would be a way with a piston to make it function similar to a normal fan switch. For example it’s off, a press up makes it go to low, then another one press up to be medium and so on, then one press down to lower the speed, and another press to lower further till it’s off. It would ease the family’s learning curve I think. If not I’ll just stick with the multi presses for scenes.

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

@Matt Rogers thanks! Yeah I'm looking forward to not installing a smart light switch for a little while. I haven't tried the Leviton switches but I've seen a few other people comment about it and I'll make sure to include it in the next one. The little rocker being more intuitive for dimming is a good point. Thanks!

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

@Andrew Pevny I haven't tried to set something like that up in webCoRE yet but I might give that a try this weekend. I think it would be possible using a variable that cycles through the different speeds. I'll look into that for sure. Thanks!

@apevny 3 года назад

Smart Home Solver Sounds good, can’t wait to hear what you might come up with. We are in Sacramento, CA but our temp Sunday may reach your type of high: 111 degrees 🥵

@whitneygervelis5092 3 года назад

The frustration of trying to get the wires back in the box and lining up those faceplates is worth sooo many likes in itself

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Thanks you so much for recognizing how long that part of the process is! That probably took the most time for this review.

@DIY_Dad_83 3 года назад

You are out there doing the grunt work for the people! Thank you for this and everything else that you do!

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Haha thanks, I appreciate that! I love making these videos.

@KeithAchorn 3 года назад

Thank you for covering such a wide selection of switches. I replaced a few just last week and appreciate what a hassle it can be to install them safely. I spent weeks before searching for a video just like this, but finding none with this breadth. I was a little surprised not to see the 'C by GE' or Leviton switches included, as they are sold in most major US retailers and are two of the few mass-market hubless options. I ended up going with the 'C by GE' ones myself. So far, so good, but I am still trying to get used to the style.

@asinheaven 3 года назад

Thanks for including comparisons of the click sound between different units. I prefer a totally silent switch.

@JohnNeville617 3 года назад

I started out with the GE switches/dimmers partly on a whim but I have since replaced all of my switches with them. Some people may be looking for the bells and whistles but I just wanted hub controlled switches that felt normal so they definitely fit the bill. I do have the Zooz double switch for my bathroom light/fan but it feels cheap next to the more solid GE vanity switch. The real reason I went hub controlled was for security. Reliability is one thing but I mostly want to keep a barrier between the internet and my smart devices. There are too many sketch Chinese generic devices out there so knowing that it is z-wave and not wifi is comforting.

@invisihome4476 3 года назад

Great comparisons! I'm partial to press and hold for dimming myself. Really handy for elbows or just using what's in your hand when your hands are full or wet.

@JVinciFilms 2 года назад

Was a great video, thank you for changing your kitchen switch soooo many-times for the testing.

@105mmshooter9 2 года назад

If not mentioned before, wanted to let you know you can program the center (dome) button on the pico remote for the brightness level. I have in wall switch and pico remotes by the lamps in the bedrooms. It fixed turning the switch on only to find someone had turned the lamp off. With the switch / pico arrangement you can turn the light on from either side of the room regardless of where it was turned off. If you tap the center button on the pico it turns on at the programmed brightness.

@willdonovanaus 3 года назад

AWESOME! Thanks Reed. Switches are my No1 topic at the moment and trying to work out where to start and how to narrow down the selection. Cheers from Australia ;)

@asprywrites6327 Год назад

Excellent work, sir. It's been my pleasure being a longtime subscriber.

@alanmoore2197 3 года назад

Good review! I would note that while you mentioned some dimmers stand alone operation not being that intuitive to use - that is so much more true for guests (or even family members!) using switches that require multiple presses to control light scenes. Whilst the functionality is impressively squeezed in - I would never do that (because my wife would give me grief about it forever!). I always add scene controllers with dedicated labelled buttons so you don't need a smart home manual for everyday use. I also feel the look of a house is compromised by having many different types of light switches sprinkled around and of course that also compromises usability some for guests too. I don't automate everything so I also appreciate dimmers & switches that don't look jarringly physically different from regular decora switches - because they will all be living together. Keep up the good work (and humor!).

@ObscuredTravel 3 года назад

Thank you for the breakdown! Well done and informative

@justind.6780 3 года назад

I'm currently using various TP-LINK and a 4 way brilliant light switch in my home and I absolutely love them. I too had issues with switches not fitting into the older switch covers and ended up buying slightly larger versions at home depot that actually do the trick and you barely notice the difference.

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

That's good to know about larger versions. I'll have to look for those next time I'm at home depot.

@hvk3929 3 года назад

Thank you bro. I was looking for the same.

@bergermaestro 3 года назад

I use the Kass switches and it's always a relief when Reed gives something a thumbs up! I use the dimmer and notice a bit of buzzing, but that seems to be because of the lightbulbs and not the switch itself.

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Yeah I didn't notice any buzzing with the bulbs I was using. I wish I had more time and resources to try them all out with different kind of lights. Kasa switches are great though!

@victoriabrown6753 2 года назад

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

@jasonbaker2341 3 года назад

The GE on/off dimming ramp can be changed. It can even be set differently based on whether it was turned on by z-wave or by a physical press. You can even set it to 0 for instant on/off. Guess it depends if your hub allows your to change that configuration parameter. I'm using Home Assistant.

@jmz6 3 года назад

I am using Leviton smart switches. They have many different versions available. Currently have the regular wifi smart switch and a dimmer as well their 3 way remote switch. App and features are updated pretty frequently and have a decent amount of features included. they have been decently reliable over 2 years, though have had 2 out of 15 burn out randomly but was replaced by Leviton

@MrCoolguy80 3 года назад

I've been pretty happy with Meross. Have too many to go back now! Interesting to see the other options!

@shafter111 3 года назад

Thanks for the video. I found the kasa lights easiest to install. Its sturdy, with thick wires connected to the device and the app taking you step by step through the process. I wished they 3-way dimmers. I have a lutron smart dimmer and its painful to operate in the dark.

@ronm6585 3 года назад

Thanks Reed. Great comparison.

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

I appreciate it Ron!

@brycelaw4950 3 года назад

Great video! I put in a bunch of treatlife switches that get the job done and im happy with them. I ordered the older version of the treatlife dimmer switch has buttons on top similar to kasa which i knew i would prefer over the slider thing. My only complaint and something that i think would be good to cover is size and ease of installation, specifically if any were more shallow than others. I have a smart fan switch and a smart switch together in one panel and it swear i had to almost break the switches to get them in there.

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Thanks Bryce! Yes I noticed that the Treatlife switches were large in the light switch box. I thought about mentioning that but I didn't think it was a big enough factor because it still fit so I left it out of the video. I'll try and mention that with light switches in the future though.

@claycottingham6505 3 года назад

I was an early adopter and developer for Insteon back in 2005/06. Early devices had heat issues and periodic failure. Jump forward 12 years, and their newer devices are rock solid. I built a custom home in 2018 and have over 80 Insteon devices with a Universal-Devices ISY-994 automation controller. This allows complex programming and configuration of my system. You definitely need to dip you toes into the system.

@jerrycarpenter9570 Год назад

It's too bad insteon went out of business. I was planning on using them on my remodel because that's what I've been using for several years. My home automation guy wants to use Zooz with Home Assistant. What do you think ?

@stephensiemonsma 3 года назад

Great comparisons! I started out with Kasa switches, and have moved on to Inovelli and Zooz Z-Wave dimmers. Kasa definitely feels like the highest quality hardware, but I'm a sucker for Z-Wave and both Inovelli and Zooz have put a good amount of work into their firmware and device handlers to makes these devices customizable and feature-packed. You didn't mention it, but it may be worth discussing little touches that may differentiate some of these Z-Wave switches/dimmers. For instance, Zooz has been moving to tab-less switches that are much less hassle to install in multi-gang boxes, and they claim the ZEN27 has greater compatibility with dimmable lights (less lightly to flicker/buzz). I'm not sure if your audience would be interested in leading edge vs trailing edge dimmer differences, but it can make a big difference as far as compatibility with "dumb" light bulbs. I think this may have been the cause of your issue with the Inovelli dimmer. Your lights probably prefer trailing edge dimmers instead.

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Thanks! Yes I still have more to learn about some of the more advanced things you mentioned about leading edge vs trailing edge. That makes sense about my issue with the Inovelli dimmer. There were some other things too with 3 way switches and how Zooz handles them. It gets pretty overwhelming but I'll definitely check out the ZEN27 and some of those more finite details. I appreciate the comment!

@dr_920 3 года назад

I appreciate your inputs about the smart switch. I have a 2007 built-house and the switch is too shallow to have those smart switches due to their deep transformer. It is really difficult to reorganize the wire in the switch boxes unless you upgrade them with deeper boxes. I can't do it myself. It would cost thousands to hire a professional. I guess I have to give up the plan to automate my house.

@rjw8316 3 года назад

Nice comparison. However, next time could you include the Insteon devices? Thanks.

@teba7492 3 года назад

Great video as always! I have learned so much from your videos since starting my smart home. When I have questions, I always search your content first. 😁 I would be interested in smart button switches that you can install (no wiring) at the light switch as opposed to the little smartthings buttons. (I need control for lamps by the door).

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Thanks Terri! I bought a bunch of different IKEA Tradfri buttons that work directly with SmartThings. I'll be showing some examples in the next video. There's some useful things that can be done with them and they work well.

I haven’t seen anything lately that remotely looks or does any of the things they do. Other than my Alexa and all the LIFX that’s voice activated and controlled. Thanks for sharing.

@awlthatwoodcrafts8911 3 года назад

I've had a couple of Meross switches to control some outside lighting for a couple of years now and have had no issues. When I started using Alexa, I was able to integrate the Meross switches easily with a "skill". Since then, I've added some Meross smart plugs and a couple more smart switches and when I set them up in the Meross app, they were automatically added to Alexa's list of devices. The 2 new smart switches were purchased from Amazon for under $25 for the pair. Can't buy a single Leviton in a store for less that $35.

@pnmtech 3 года назад

Awesome Video! One you missed was the Lesim Smart Switch I got from Amazon. It’s a touch only WiFi switch that comes in 1,2 and 3 gang configurations and also has a 3 way switch option. It’s basic but has a small WiFi icon on the switches so you can always see where they are even when they are off and in the dark. They are also very inexpensive, I replaces all of the switches in my house, about 20 total for less than $450. Worth checking out. Thanks!

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Thanks for the info! I'll have to look into those if we do a follow up video!

@TechProGabe 3 года назад

I have some cheap treat life ones, the only compliant is in a bedroom the leds can be quite bright at night. Beyond that they work great.

@garypleasant3116 3 года назад

Wow, you did a great job researching all of these manufacturers. I have had 20 Wemo light switches and outlets throughout my home for the past 3yrs. Was not a good choice. The app is terrible on iOS no Apple Watch app and although they are WiFi a hub is required for them them to work with HomeKit. I also have devices that randomly stop responding.

@twobluestripes 3 года назад

Just in time for me to start thinking about switches! I just got going on Home Assistant and want to get the Inovelli ones, I’ll have to check the wiring to see if I need the Red series (house is real old but the electric looks new)

@MattTaylor7 3 года назад

Great video, that must of taken forever to do. I have a few dimmer and switches from Leviton. Very reliable over the past 2 years and the app gives you some options if you get the dimmer version. Mine were $50 each

@KirkandRA Год назад

Great review. I’m currently upgrading to Kasa Single pole from the standard switches. Just buying a couple at a time so my wife doesn’t blow a gasket 😂

@PoisonWaffle3 3 года назад

Thanks for the awesome video and all the hard work testing them all! I was hoping you would cover the Merkury wifi simmer switches. They're available at Walmart and pretty inexpensive (also their smart bulbs, etc). I've got one in my master bedroom and it's okay, but flickers at under about 40% brightness (tried several different types of LED bulbs). When we move into the next house I'll be putting in z-wave or zigbee switches, not sure which ones yet. I suppose it will depend on budget and if anything new comes out between now and then, but I'll definitely be referring back to this video 👍

@GaryBickford 3 года назад

I recently bought and installed a couple of Martin Jerry low cost dimmer switches. They use the 'Smart Life' app to get set up. I don't yet have an internet connection through my wifi router, so I haven't done that. But they work well locally.

Awesome as always. FYI... You you can use Lutron Caseta Wireless Smart Lighting ELV Dimmer Switch for Electronic Low Voltage Light Bulbs, PD-5NE-WH, White. (Bought mine at Amazon)It looks like the Pico and the round button in the middle can be programmed as your favorite setting. Also you can control Lifx bulbs with any the Caseta switches. Just colors are limited to the type of switch and how you program it.

I live in a rental house, so I can change bulbs, but not fixtures. I switched all of my bulbs that I could change to Hue. But that left some fixtures with "dumb" bulbs (for example, my kitchen has a square light with SMD LED diodes in it) so for all of those, I installed Kasa switches. They work awesome. I use Google Home and they have zero issues for me. I also have a bunch of Kasa outlets, for fans and my heat.

@MarkS6789 3 года назад

I have the GE and the Kasa Dimmer light switch. The GE has never failed and never had any connection issues however the dimming isn't the best, you have to use the app in order to get the right dim. The Kasa brand as a whole ive had issues with them just disconnecting all of a sudden. But im starting to believe it might be my network getting crowded. When Kasa works however, it works great and the app is really good too! Great job Reed!

I love the video and how you categorized switches into different groups! I was hoping to see a renters/apartment category with smart switches that go over your existing light switches for those of us who have landlords that don't necessarily enjoy having their Tenants mess with the houses electricity. I know these videos take lots of work; even without this additional renters category i still found this video very helpful, thanks!

@SmartHomeSolver 3 года назад

Thanks! Yeah that could be good for another video.

@baronlopez8788 3 года назад

You have great videos and look forward to watching more in the future. However, I'm curious why you didn't consider any Insteon switches in this review. I've found a lot of success in mixing both z-wave and Insteon.

@thebigdoghimself 3 года назад

You forgot insteon. They have been on the market for longer than anyone and are more geared to the higher end install. You can control them via their bub or with a more advanced controller such as one from ISY.
