Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The switch uses a neutral paddle with two momentary switches. The trick is first to make sure the switch is wired correctly. If you are replacing ge jasco z-wave switches, the wiring is exactly the same.

Switches work with smartthings and hubitat natively. It responds quickly to commands from the hub. Overall, pleased with the switch and supports my automation.



Cons

Quality


It linked easily with the hubitat elevation hub using the ge zigbee switch driver.


Overall, pleased with the switch and supports my automation.


If you purchased the zigbee switches to connect with the alexa hub, there is no need to download the app.

Competitiveness


I use the switch to replace my wemo light switch.


Only downside is it requires a little more force than some other decora switches.


The metal tabs on the ge branded jasco switches made no sense to me.


Also, the zigbee switches appear to be a little higher in cost than z-wave.

    I had an earlier version of this switch die on me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The depth of the switch has been substantially reduced and it may now be the thinnest fullfeatured hardwired switch on the market


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Last but not least the original generation had a short about half a second but noticeable delay between manually hitting the paddle and the light actually switching on or off


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you purchased the zigbee switches to connect with the alexa hub there is no need to download the app


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Just give the switches 5 or 10 minutes to do what they need to do and then just ask alexa to discover new devices


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Then keep the light switch on while say 34discover device34 to echo show turn off the light switch after a few seconds


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Everything should be linked up within next 30 seconds


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    No need to install enbrighten app at all
