Smart Light Switch, WiFi Switch Touch Wall Switch 1 Gang, Compatible with Alexa Google Home

easy to install and works with alexa

They are great, the only issue was the network connectivity. It comes for 2Ghz when most of the internet in houses today are 5Ghz. Beyond that all good. Compatible with Alexa

Installed in November 2019, died in March 2023. Not horrible, but I expect more life from a switch/relay. Good thing I ordered a 2-pack and only needed one. Well see how long the second one lasts. FWIW, the device worked great while it lasted. I should mentioned that I had it on a sunset/sunrise automatic trigger using IFTTT and Google Home, so I rarely physically touched the switch. It turned on and off at least once a day every day for almost 40 months before it stopped responding to touch and would no longer connect to the WiFi.

Installation was simple and straight forward for the most part. 4 wire install, Neutral, Ground, Line and Load. The switch seems to be well made and operates as you would expect. I completed the install with little effort, but I wish they would include wires a little longer than 4 inches. The only thing that seems to be consistent is you really need some better instructions in performing the Smart Life install. Your best mode of attack seems to be using the AP mode to install it, and once you figure this out, it is not so tough. I installed 4 of these, and the longest part of the install was getting them configured. Once I did that, we were good to go! The wireless symbol provides a nice night light when moving through the house in the dark!

I installed these switches in the master bedroom to control the ceiling fan and its light. The directions were easy to understand, and the installation is fairly simple. The switches paired with my home network without any problem, and worked well with my system. I have to give these switches only four stars though because the indicating lights built into them are too bright. They have both a blue light that lets you know your switch is paired with your system, and a blue light to indicate when the switch is on. These switches would be great to use anywhere but a bedroom. The indicating lights are so bright, they will actually disturb your sleep. I actually wound up replacing these switches with another brand whos indicating lights werent so bright.

Works otherwise, but I wanted it for a bedroom and it is very bright and distracting.

Excellent switch and ive been using it for over a month now. Response time is extremely quick with the app and google home and like another reviewer said if your smart enough to configure scenes and automation you can use more of these as dumb remote switches to control the main one much like a pico remote. I have a 100 year old home and this comes in handy since wiring 3way wire in each room is nearly impossible and many of the 15x20 rooms only have one light switch which becomes aggravating... Ive also configured these to control nightlights when you turn them on or off. Possibilities are endless. Wiring them are fairly easy and some reviews state they cant wrap the wire around the screw, this is the incorrect way to wire these. The screws are set screws and ive found them to be fairly strong and i do recommend if you have solid wire in your home it may help to use the same awg stranded wire jumpers and wirenuts to the existing wire to alleviate strain on the switch and if your wire is too short. You can get 14 or 12 awg stranded wire in various colors from any hardware store by the foot. In regards to metal faceplates i couldnt find good reviews to sugest against them and ive found in my setup they work great with metal faceplates with a plastic box and my ubiquiti uap ac pro ap; of course mileage may vary and everyones setup and home is differnet. I have yet to add the additional sheilding of a metal box which some of my boxes are that i havent converted yet.

Needing a white (neutral) wire was the first challenge. Single pole light switches do not have a white wire attached to them. So for starters you need to reconfigure the white wire to attach to the wifi switch. Once i had it properly powered I could not get it to pair to my network. I tried many times and it would not recognize my wifi network. My friend noticed one of the Amazon pictures said the password couldnt use symbols. I had read somewhere that it couldnt use Chinese symbols. My wifi password has symbols. I wasnt about to change it and screw every other device in the house. I have a secondary network without symbols in the password. I used it and the paring went smoothly. What a ridiculous thing not to accept passwords with symbols. What modern password doesnt have symbols!! It paired with Alexa smoothly.

the wires coming with it is super short, so it makes the installation a disaster. Other than that, it is a great product

Amazon Devices said its a third-party app so they cant help me. Finally after reaching somebody at normal customer support, I was given a contact support email for the manufacturer, wish I was told has an 80% success rating which is pretty good. I emailed but before I get a response, I called my internet service and he created a split so that I could connect the app to 2.4 GHz which is what it requires. Works now
