Customer Reviews

Reliable, Well-built, Smooth Dimming (LED, Hal, Incan), Highly Recommend! Contrary to the reviews written in 2014, this is now an Apple HomeKit Certified connected home product *IF* paired with the Lutron Smart Bridge (version 2)!I purchased this item a few weeks ago, and thus far it has exceeded expectations.Here is a list of pros and cons that I have experienced.PRO: *Can be controlled with 4 Physical Buttons on Dimmer, Connected App, and 5 Button Remote * 300 watt Incandescent/Halogen Load or 150 watt LED load * Quite reliable, quick/responsive. * Smooth Dimming for entire range on LED, Incandescent, and Halogen * Impressive RF Wireless Range * No Neutral Wire required * Includes RF Pico Remote with memory that can be tied to other Caseta products as well. * Can be linked to sync with other Caseta products * Easy Setup * Secure Encryption if used with iOS devices and the Lutron Bridge * Solid Build Quality from a trusted name in lighting * Completely Silent does not hum, buzz, click, or otherwise emit any audible sound. * Can be controlled via remote or physical control panel if hub is not present/unavailable (you will just lack the capacity to control via a smart phone/tablet app) * If using version 2 Bridge - Apple HomeKit Certified meaning you can use Siri on your iOS device to control all or individual light s power status and their brightness. NICE!!CON: * Uses Lutron s Proprietary Clear Connect wireless control protocol * Power failure results in outlets set to Full OFF not returning to previous state * No Memory Button on Plug s control panel, just on Pico RemoteThere are a few limitations to the dimmer, however I feel that benefits outweigh the shortcomings. I do recommend this system to anyone that already has a Smart Bridge from Lutron or an otherwise compatible hub from another companyThanks for taking the time to read my review!If it was helpful, please click the Yes option at the top.If not, I welcome comments and concerns. 5Control Table Lamps (only) from Smart Devices I just can't stop buying these Lutron Caseta Smart Lamp Dimmers. I simply touch my phone screen or watch screen to turn on/off, or dim... and through the Lutron Caseta home network brain (not included) all each unit does what I "dialed in" on my device. Each unit has two lamp plugs and the on/off dimming setting is applied to both of those plugged in lamps equally (one setting, not two settings per unit).Every now and then, I use the voice command on my smart devices to control the lights, and that works. There's a special way of speaking to get what you want from that method.The only downside of these is that for anyone not controlling the wireless unit's settings by smartphone/watch will need to make those settings on the unit itself, which has nice control buttons, but might be plugged into the wall in a low wall plate or behind objects. There might be a remote control unit that I don't know about yet. But either way, adjusting the lights can become challenging for anyone who doesn't know to do it on the unit or do it on a smart device (or do it on a special remote).And of course, I'd rather the retail price for this to be 30% less, but I've found that this wireless dimmer is currently the best available. Clear to say, I'm perfectly happy with these dimmers: I've bought several already... and wanting more. 5APP-FREE EASY OF USE FOR OLD PARENTS What's easier to use than just pushing a real button?I don't know why there are no other products like this, with a convenient remote control.My old parents can't bend and kneel to manipulate out of reach switches. They are also not tech savvy, so switches/dimmers that rely on phone/tablet control are not an option.The remote control is small, can be either carried or fixed in a convenient location, allowing easy control of lights whose built-in switch is in an inconvenient location.Alexa control is not a requirement per se. This dimmer works stand alone, so it's almost fool proof.Might add Alexa integration later.Installation is easy! Can be done by almost anyone, no need to hire electricians or techies! 5Works perfectly with Lutron Hub and Logitech Remote Several months ago, we picked up a Logitech Home Control remote, and decided to try out some of the Caseta dimmers since they're compatible with the Logitech remotes.It's amazing how useful that combination is!Regardless, after going through the downstairs and replacing switches so everything is linked up & automated - I started to find other uses for the system. That's where these Lamp dimmer switches come in.For example, I always work out in our bedroom in the morning - and my wife has been complaining that it smells like a gym.With that in mind, I picked up an air cleaning filter for our bedroom, and hooked it up to one of these lamp dimmers. Then I programmed it through the Lutron Smart Bridge to come on automatically at 1/2 speed in the morning - and to bump up to full speed for about an hour after my workout (once I'm gone to work). It turns itself off automatically.I have it set to a similar program on the weekends, but it starts later so it won't wake us up if we sleep in.The best part is that we don't need to worry about switching anything on or off - and the cord for the air filter can be completely hidden behind a dresser since there isn't any need to ever unplug it.We have another one that's used for a more boring purpose (running a lamp in our living room) - and that works great too. The Smart Bridge & Logitech remote are programmed to automatically turn on the lamp when we're done watching TV for the night, so we don't have to hunt around for the light switch in the dark. It's even smart enough to know not to turn the lamp on during the day!Once you start using these Caseta switches, there are tons of uses for them that make life more convenient and energy efficient; although, they definitely aren't cheap.The Pico remote that comes with this kit is just a bonus. When using the Lutron Smart Bridge, you can hook the remote up however you want - and there isn't any need to link it to this lamp dimmer. In our case, I linked the remote to our bedroom lights so my wife can have a remote on her nightstand for convenience.Here are the things we like about these remotes, switches, and dimmers in general:1) The dimmers work perfectly with our G7 LED bulbs. The dimming range is excellent, and the switches are adjustable so you can actually set the minimum and maximum dimmer setting to match your bulbs.2) The Pico remote will pair with one switch; but, if you use it with the Lutron Smart Bridge, you can actually pair a single Pico remote with as many switches as you want (or multiple remotes to the same switch). That makes it possible to do some cool things - like turning off all the lights downstairs with a wall-mounted Pico remote.3) Once again, when paired with the Lutron Smart Bridge, it's possible to turn lights on and off on a schedule - and the schedule can even be based on the current sunrise and sunset times. This is one of the coolest features of these switches once you start messing around with it!4) These can be controlled either individually or in groups using the Logitech Home Control remote.5) These dimmers look great.If I could change just one thing with these, it would be adding the ability to program the on and off buttons of a single switch independently. For example: when I come in from the garage, I want the switch to turn on the hall light; but, when I'm leaving, it would be great if the off button of the same switch could turn off all the lights downstairs instead of just the hall light. Unfortunately, as of now the switches don't offer that much flexibility.If you're just looking for a plug-in dimmer that will work with LED and CFL lights, then there are less expensive options out there that work just as well. If, on the other hand, you're looking to combine this with either the Lutron Smart Bridge or the Logitech Home Control remote (or both), then this is part of an excellent system!I would definitely recommend trying these out. 5A plug in dimmer for lamps - Apple Homekit compatible (With Lutron Router) To create a remote control for any lamp, you need this device and an pico remote. Plug this device into the wall plug the lamp or an extension chord for christmas decorations into the device. You may now turn the lamps on/off at the device. Program the pico remote to operate this device and you can control the lamp anywhere in the house. Program the devices into the luton Router and associate this router with an Apple home kit system and you can control the light from any location with Internet access in the world.I used three to control the three sets of yard lights that were wired to use an older X-10 system. I retired the connection box supplying the power to the lights to supply an outlet instead, Then I added a plug to the wires going to the lights. Finally I plugged in this device and plugged the lamps into this device. Now I can control my yard lights from 6 separate locations around the house and from the car. With the use of home-kit, I can have the yard lights come on when I drive into the yard and turn them off from the restaurant when I forget and leave them on. 5Versital, Reliable, and Convenient The Caseta Wireless Smart Lighting Lamp Dimmer is a great feature for controlling lights that plug into a wall. I not only like the dimming abilities, we use the scheduling feature to use a family room light as a security light. It switches on and off at set times whether we are home or not. I also use a Caseta Lamp dimmer to control my walkway lights on a schedule. The sunset-sunrise schedule adjusts automatically during the year to keep my walkway lights on at night as days lengthen and shorten over the seasons. I'm a big fan of Caseta wireless products and highly recommend them. 5The pros and cons This isn t the best choice of an outlet mounted dimmable on/off power switch. It is the only choice. Sure there are a few no name brand switches that can be operated with a handheld remote control and there are an increasing number of outlet switches can be operated using an app or even with your Alexa device, but there is nothing I could find anywhere that is a brand name dimmable switch that you can simply plug something in to, walk up to it and turn it on and off and dim it up and down just as if it was a wired wall switch. Nothing. That alone makes it worth its weight in gold. And to cut right to the chase it works and it does exactly what I expected it to do.WHYTo detail that, in my case the need was for me to install a track light above the kitchen counter space I use most often for food prep. When they built the house they put lights over the sink and over the stove and over the center of the kitchen floor but they left one long countertop entirely without its own lighting. Installing the track light was easy as shown in my pic, it is in exactly the right place and I use Philips Bight White LED 50 watt bulbs in three track light fixtures with frosted side flutes. The lighting is perfect but when I m not actually working at the counter it sure would be nice to be able to dim the down a little.The problem is that unless I wanted to pay a lot to have an electrician wire a permanent wall switch in, the best way to power these lights is to simply plug them in to an outlet right above the counter. There are some simple power switches that you can get at the local fixit store that can turn a light on and off but I wanted to do that plus be able to dim them. The Caseta switch could not be more perfectly designed. Without the need for remote controls or apps or anything complicated any family member can simply tap the on or off buttons or touch the up or down dimmer buttons. There is a second outlet available on the switch that I am considering to use to plug in a task light over the stove for added convenience.This switch would be perfect just the way it is and no matter where I looked it was the same price everywhere. I chose to opt for this kit that includes a wireless remote control because of a special deal one day and I m glad I did. Now if someone leaves the kitchen task light on accidentally I can turn it off from the next room without having to get up. That to me is convenient, if not entirely necessary.IS A HUB NECESSARYThere is one important thing that needs to be cleared up about the product description and that is that no, it is not necessary to buy an expensive hub to use these switch as I described above. It works perfectly out of the box as a stand alone product or with the remote control without any additional accessories. You need a hub ONLY if you want to control the switch with an app or by using Alexa or a similar device. Okay, I use those personal assistants every day for a lot of reasons but I think it overcomplicates the function of a simple outlet switch to have to use an app just to turn something on and off. I think the whole idea of requiring a hub for any of these devices will be obsolete in a year or two for three reasons they are overpriced, there is no compatible standard between them, and they require plugging them in to an Ethernet port on a router, which as the world goes wireless is becoming a dinosaur relic. My house doesn t even have an accessible Ethernet port these days and it won t be long before most houses don t.WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THE WALL DIMMERThe wall dimmer is close to perfect in design. You simply plug it into an outlet, plug your light into it and you re done no apps or programming or learning complicated commands. There are four push buttons that you can actually feel move. Two of them are white and two of them are dark gray. The top white button turns the light on and the bottom dark gray button turns it off. When power the light instead of it just popping on or off the brightness fades softly up or down. The middle two buttons are actually a split diagonal with the upper white part increasing the brightness and the bottom dark gray part dimming the light.WHAT THEY COULD IMPROVE ABOUT THE WALL DIMMERThe first thing that seems obvious that I would recommend is that the white on button should glow softly so it is easy to find in the dark. The second thing is that there should be memory function so you can have the light turn on to a preset level if you choose. And the third thing is that the design makes you use your bottom outlet on your wall plug, which means when you press any button the whole device rocks up and down a little. Yes you could plug it in to the top outlet but if you do then you lose the use of the bottom outlet on your wall plug. By plugging it in to the bottom outlet if you have something else plugged in above it the cord drapes down right in front of the push buttons on the Caseta. I solved that by plugging in a Hug-A-Plug adapter which routes the cord off to the side and also gives me back an extra unswitched outlet.WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROLRemember I didn t really need a remote control, but as long as it was included I like that the buttons replicate the function of the wall plug almost exactly but as a bonus they include a fifth little round button that memorizes your favorite light brightness and lets you turn the power on to that exact level.WHAT THEY COULD IMPROVE ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROLIf you own an Apple TV you know how customers feel about the slim remote control, fifty percent of the time you will grab it upside-down and either nothing will happen or you push the wrong button. Lutron makes the same mistake here, unless you look very closely at the remote you have a one in two chance that you will be holding it upside-down. The other mistake, which should be so obvious, is that they make the remote all one shade of white instead of following the excellent theme of using white buttons for on and dark gray buttons for dim or off. What were they thinking. 5Convert your lamps into dimmable smart lamps I recently got a new bookcase headboard with reading lamps built in, but the switches are really hard to reach when I lay down in bed. This kit allows me to use a remote control that I can put in a more convenient location, or I can use a voice command with Alexa (requires a Caseta controller and an Echo device, sold separately). It also lets me dim the lights, a feature my lamps didn't originally have.On the down side, if you're using CFL or LED lights, you have to make sure they're dimmable or else they might flicker or behave oddly; dimmable bulbs are usually slightly more expensive. 5Home lighting annoyances solved This dimmer/remote combo has helped us solve several lighting problems in our relatively small house.The Caseta plug-in lamp dimmer is a cousin to the Lutron PD-6WCL-WH Caseta Wireless 600-watt Single Pole In-Wall Dimmer. Its internal programming and controls are the same, but it is housed in a plastic case that features two, two-blade polarized outlets. The dimmer can take the bottom plug of a standard duplex outlet (presuming it is installed with grounding slot down). The other physical difference between the lamp dimmer and the wall switch is that the former has a single LED indicator instead of the seven LEDs on the wall switch. Grey plastics for the "lower" and "off" buttons are a nice cosmetic touch.The Pico remote has the same controls and single LED indicator as the lamp dimmer, and adds a domed center button to implement a "favorite lighting level" feature. This remote has a long-life lithium button cell. Lutron says the battery will last for 10 years of ordinary use, and it is easily accessible for replacement. There is a wide slot on the back with a removable cover. This allows the Pico remote to be mounted on accessories that include pedestal stands (single or double) and a wall plate adapter. I think it's essential that you choose one of these mounting options, as the remote on its own is so small that it is easily misplaced.The huge improvement that Caseta features over earlier Lutron electronic dimmers is that it can be "trimmed" by the customer to match different lighting loads. For example, a Maestro eco-dim 600 Watt Single-Pole Multi-Location Dimmer can control incandescent or halogen bulbs. But you need one special version of the Maestro to handle compact fluorescent or LED bulbs, and others exist to control low-voltage magnetic ballast bulbs and low-voltage electronic ballast bulbs. The Caseta dimmer doesn't solve this problem completely, but it should handle any dimmable 120VAC lighting load. As another reviewer noted, it's a good idea to check the Lutron site for approved bulbs, but that's a large and growing list.As for the main problem that this dimmer solved: We have two floor lamps placed in barely-accessible corners of our entertainment room. Turning them on and off was previously a long reach, and of course they did not dim. A fireplace separates the two, so putting them on a single circuit was not an easy way out for us.We added a pair of Caseta dimmers, one at each corner. One nice feature of the Pico remote is that it can control more than one dimmer. So, we "paired" both dimmers to a single Pico remote, which is mounted in a wall plate. We also added LED dimmable bulbs to the floor lamps. The lamps now operate in tandem, and can be set at any brightness level we choose.We own three other Caseta lamp dimmer/Pico remote sets, which are being used to control lamps on three buffet units. Since the outlet is otherwise inaccessible behind each of these large pieces of furniture, this has added enormous convenience and an element of "mood lighting" in the rooms where they are located.I found programming easy and intuitive, and the only irritating aspect for me is that the "favorite" button is ONLY on the Pico remote. It doesn't matter as much in this application, but it still seems like a huge oversight that I wish Lutron would address.I recommend these dimmers highly. 5Perfect Lava Lamp Accessory Everyone who owns an older Lava Lamp knows that you can't leave them on too long or the lava starts breaking up from getting too hot. This dimmer is the solution for us. We have a Lava Lamp sitting on a shelf in one of our rooms. There's a wall plug within eight inches of it so I shortened the cord accordingly. Purchased this as it was the only dimmer, that I could find, that was a module that plugged directly into a wall plug and not only had dimmer function but separate on and off switch. After several days of making adjustments of how bright the bulb should be I finally found the sweet spot where I can leave the lava light on for days and maintain a nice gentle lava flow without having to worry about the lava getting too hot. The dimmer also works with an optional remote control for those of you who wish to use it with other fixtures. None of the Big Box stores, where I normally like to shop, carried this or even knew of its existence. 5
