## Description

The z-wave in-wall on/off switch by GE controls permanently installed lighting or fans with a mobile device or computer. It easily replaces any standard in-wall switch. Transform any home into a smart home with the smart switch. It uses your existing Wiring and the white lighting controls match most standard wall plates. The screw-terminal installation provides improved space efficiency when replacing existing switches compared to flying leads. Never worry if you accidentally left the lights on again.

Review: In-wall Z-Wave switch works well for me - This is an in-wall Z-Wave toggle switch intended to replace an existing switch in order to make it Z-Wave compatible, as you might do if you're trying to include a light in your home automation controller (Vera, SmartThings, Hubitat, Home Assistant, etc.). I have used it with Home Assistant and Hubitat, and it's paired easily and worked reliably with both. Note that, like all Z-Wave switches, it takes up more room in the box than a standard switch, so you'll want to make sure you have enough room. This one also requires a neutral wire in the box (as do most smart switches), which many older houses won't have. Both of these are things you will want to consider with any Z-Wave switch, but beyond that, installation isn't much harder than a regular switch if you follow the instructions. Note that this looks about like a regular toggle switch, except if you're trying to match "dumb" toggle switches, there are a few differences. First, the toggle (switch) itself doesn't stay up or down like a regular toggle switch; it's always in the middle. Second, I find it very thin compared to other toggle switches (even the cheap ones--and definitely much thinner and smaller than most 20-amp or "commercial"-grade toggles). Both of these make it strand out a bit from the "dumb" toggle I have next to this one in a two-gang box, but I didn't want to use a paddle switch, so I still think this is better. It also appears to only come in white, and there is no plate included, so you'll need to provide your own (shouldn't be a problem if you're replacing an existing switch, as you can just re-use that--preferably a white plate if you want it to match). Finally, note that this switch is a Z-Wave switch. GE has recently (as of early 2018, probably released in the last year) released a line of similar-looking Z-Wave Plus switches. Unless you don't care about the difference or find a good price on these compared to those and decide it's worth it, I'd probably get the Plus switches instead just to have a more current Z-Wave implementation. Otherwise, there's certainly no problem with these.
Review: I like how I get remote control of the lights through ... - works very well, very reliable, I like how I get remote control of the lights through my portable device and automation, and my spouse can still go flip a switch on the wall. I really like the fact that its smart enough to know what do do based solely on the input received and not based on an input complicated by its current state. In other words, its smart enough to know that and "on" command means I want the light on, regardless of whether the light was already on or not. Its the closest looking switch to the normal toggle switches already in the wall so there's no real change to the appearance of the wall switches. These work well through several walls and on other floors than my z-wave hub, so the signal reception is good. One thing I will mention is that while these technically are one-gang switches, they are still really large. I put two of them in a 4-gang switch box and barely had enough room to put it all back together. I don't think you could get two of these side by side in a 2-gang box, or any ratio over about 1:2 with other devices in a box. After the unit is connected and screwed in, there's simply not enough room for the wiring so you have to steal space from behind other devices. Just be aware of this when you are thinking about where to install. If you're building new construction or remodeling a space with these in mind, I recommend using the larger commercial steel boxes(square, extra deep) with a single-gang coverplate so you have plenty of room for the wiring. Residential type boxes just don't have enough room for these.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 8 years later
*by K***E on March 8, 2024*

Bought 2 of these in 2016. Installed easy and have worked great with Smartthings and Alexa. Last night power went out in home and when restored, the switch kept clicking. Ended up removing the switch at 3am and then replacing next day with a different product. The thing with these switches (and pretty much any other smart device), they work great until the day it stops working. You just hope you get one from the good batch and it works a long time but sometimes you get the dud. I paid ~$35 ea. I would not buy this again unless it was <$15. Style is outdated.
