Lutron PD-6ANS-BL Smart Switch: Easy install in 15 minutes
Ever walked into a room and wished the lighting would just adjust itself? Meet the Lutron Caseta Original Smart Switch—your new best friend for LED lights and fans. Sure, it needs a neutral wire (don't we all need a little support?), and yeah, you'll want the Lutron Smart Hub (sold separately, because life's full of surprises). But once you're set up, it plays nice with Amazon Alexa, Apple Home, Google Assistant, and probably your toaster if it's smart enough. Control your lights with the app, shout at your voice assistant, or go old-school with the wall switch. Your call.
Here's the lowdown on what makes this switch a game-changer:
- Installation's a breeze—15 minutes tops, and that's including the time you spend looking for your screwdriver.
- Neutral wire? Check. It's like the switch's lifeline.
- It's the social butterfly of smart home devices, getting along with just about everyone.
- Lost the remote? No sweat. The Pico remote (sold separately, because of course) has your back.
- 3-way setup? Easy peasy, no extra wiring gymnastics required.
This little powerhouse can handle up to 720-Watts of incandescent, halogen, ELV, and MLV lights, 6A of LED/CFL, or 3.6A of ceiling or exhaust fans. Set schedules, create scenes, and make it look like someone's home even when you're off sipping margaritas on a beach. Versatile? Check. Reliable? Double-check.

As someone who's always looking for a good deal, I was initially hesitant because of the extra parts needed, but this Lutron switch has been worth it. Installation was straightforward—most likely took me under 15 minutes, and I love that I can control my lights with my voice or the app. It's super reliable; no issues so far, and it makes my home feel more automated without being complicated. A little tip: double-check your wiring setup before buying to save yourself some trouble. Overall, a solid choice for anyone wanting to upgrade their lighting without a huge investment. :)
- Pros: This switch works out of the box and was super easy to install—I had it up and running in no time, even with my basic DIY skills. It integrates seamlessly with all my other smart gadgets, making it a breeze to control everything from one place. The ability to set schedules and scenes is a game-changer for energy savings and convenience, and it handles various types of lights and fans without any hiccups.
- Cons: You do need an extra device to make it fully functional, which is an added cost and a bit of a hassle. Also, it requires a specific type of wiring that not all homes have, so you might need to check that beforehand. It would be nice if everything was included in one package to avoid the extra purchases.
