> 3 dayI am not quite sure what they mean warmth and sheerness that they ask to you to evaluate/rate. ??? The reason I like them is that they are an easy unit to use and wire into a device that needs control, and can be controlled by Alexa or a phone very easily. Such as... I added a fan in the garage above the garage door opener to control heat movement from an electric garage heater I added. The pull switch would have been a nuisance. I mounted one of these babies in the cord set going to the garage door opener outlet and now I can say Alexa turn on garage fan anywhere in the house. So cool. I have also used these to make short Wifi extension cords. These are easy to make. You take a flat plug extension cord with two wires, (unplugged of course), cut it, cut it to length, strip 3/8 or so on each of the four wire ends and plug the stripped wires into the four connector blocks provided. Make sure you have the wall side of the cord with the plug go into the IN side of the unit and the 1, 2 or 3 outlet side of the cord go into the OUT side of the unit. You now have a Wifi extension cord. Why you ask? You could use a Wifi module and put it into the outlet and plug your device into it. But on some circumstances where you have furniture that needs to fit up against a wall, the extra module and plug pushes the furniture away from the wall. This works very nicely.

> 3 dayI live in a 100-year-old home we have some new wiring where the voice control switches work. I had given up on the old to wire lights, but these little switches I have turned my entire home into voice control! They’re easy to install and two pair with my current Alexa system

> 3 dayThe product works exactly how it should. Other than the fact it wont fit in a standard 4x4 box the only complaint I have is the connectors. These things are cheap and the wire pulls out pretty easy. I took the end caps off and used some 12ga thhn wire and hardwired mine with the set screws inside.

> 3 dayI bought these to install in place of (non existent) physical switches that an electrician said would cost $200 each to put in. Took a bit of manual labor, cutting conduit and splicing wires, but all is good, and they work like a charm! I dont understand why some people say the instructions arent very good. I followed the instructions, and got it set up and running the first attempt. Maybe its because I already was familiar with the smart life app? I dont know. But dont let those reviews sway your decision. Theyre easy to set up, and work great. Oh, and I didnt have any issue with my dual band router. I did not have to set up a guest network, or shut down the 5Ghz side or anything. Just plain easy and strait forward setup.

> 3 dayBought the switch for a ceiling fan. Before I installed it all the way, I just dangled the switch off the proper wires. I downloaded the app for it, Smart Life. Tried one, then the other switch (At one point I had the output routed to the input and I thought maybe I blew the switch). Neither one could be recognised. I read the review saying to trash the directions, instead press front button for 10 seconds, release for 1 beat and repress for 5 more seconds to get it to work. We were on the same 2.4 gz. network, tried on my Android and wifes Iphone. Two DAYS we tried; we got fast blinks, slow green blinks, red and green blinking, red steady light, etc. You name it, we experienced it. The TWO sections of a total of 140 words that tell you how to get the software installed is about the WORST set of directions, EVER. Got nowhere. Then I read the review that said to download the TuyaSmart app. It is, basically, THE SAME APP! Except this one worked in like 5 seconds. Seriously, after all the hassles I thought, Well, this bombed on me too only to be astonished it said that it had worked and accepted the switch. Then we took the working switch temporarily down as we had to wire the fan up. In the course of events, I mixed up the switch I KNEW worked with one not yet installed. I wasnt positive they were swapped, mind you, so we proceeded anyway. Guess what? It was NOT the first switch. The other switch set up in like 4 seconds though! It works like a charm. The signal penetrates even under the canopy (which was a squeeze, but there was enough room). We got it up, my phone switched on fan, previously configured smart bulbs on the fans light kit turned on as when we asked them to. Then they turned off. . But, when the fan stopped via the wi-fi switch, I realized that to get the switch on again for the LIGHTS to be able to work, I would also end up turning the fan back on. My goal was to make both the fan and the light work via voice control (or phone!) A rather simple fix, I will just rewire the fans lights to they can come on when the switch is on via voice by bypassing the wi-fi switch and just allow the switch to work the fan. Under this scenario the wall switch stays on all the time. The lights have their own built in Alexa switch! Home automation IS NOT easy, but it is challenging and with each new device wired for voice, I get a little closer to my goal of 100% automation.
