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

Firstly I have an Orbi Mesh WIFI system that’s intelligent so separate 2.4 ghz and 5ghz. I have over devices connected. They are mostly 2.4 ghz devices and function fine without ever having to reconfigure my network. Even installed GE 8 smart build today. I’m an engineer by trade so the electrical wiring was a breeze. Had to buy 1 foot or wire to extend. The switches powered up as expected. The instructions are horrible. The app UI seem decent. The problems are the devices. Can’t get them to connect whichever way possible (auto, AP mode, manual). The instructions say to rename my network to differentiate between 2.4 and 5 ghz. My Orbi is I intelligent and will know to pick up that signal. We shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to connect devices. I never had to with all my other devices. These switches are cheaply made. I read someone review that said he use his old phone to pair them. I should of took that notice as a red flag. Who still has an old phone that still uses 2.4 ghz bandwidth. Spent over 4 hours and nothing. Completed waste of time. Lesin is the brand. Will me returning these when the GE smart switch come in. Their app and pairing process is a breeze. Spend the extra money and stay away from this brand

They work great just didn’t like the cheap wires they sent with other than that they work great

I brought this switch back in September 2019 and it worked great with Alex I was able to use it with Alex routines so I decided to buy another set of switches to control my porch lights January 10th 2020 after installing when I went to the Smart Life app to register the devices my account was gone which I found strange so I set it up again and had to reregister my old and new switch and since I have not be able to use with Alex. The Smart Life skill doesnt work, it doesnt discover the devices and the only way you can control it is through the Smart Life app. This really sucks. So if you plan to purchase and use with Alex dont there are other reliable brands out there. [UPDATE] So the lack of instructions was my downfall this switch is great once you figure out how to get it connected to Alexa. So instead of just using the Alex skill to the switch you have to sign into your Amazon account through the Smart Life app. Once you do that it all works great.

Very easy to install and link to Alexa with general electrical knowledge. Save on electric with routines or timers set up.

Im fairly tech savvy, so setting up their app and then granting permissions in Google Home was pretty simple. It joined the network easily, tool the password the first time and the scheduling features are spot on. Did testing to make sure its not just flipping the binary (so a turn on command would turn it off if it was already on) and the ability to group the lights in Google Home and voice control mean it doesnt matter where the switch is in the house. Awesome for automating outside lights.

Switches worked great! Connected instantly to WiFi. I do not have Alexa etc. so didnt try that functionality. As long as you know basic electrical work IE knowing load, line, neutral and ground, installation is easy and straight forward. Only reason did not give 5 starts as I was disappointed there was really no programming instructions provided. Tech support gets 5 stars as I queried about programming and they answered same day! Great Tech Support.

Very good switch for the price. I had to get an electrician to run a neutral wire but that wasn’t the fault of the switch since they warn you that it has to have one. Once I had the correct wiring for it everything went very smoothly.

This light switch was easy to install but not because of the instructions. With some prep work on YouTube was able to figure everything out. Absolutely must check your house wiring before you even purchase it. Make sure you have a neutral line. Hold down the power button for about 5 seconds after it’s installed, that’s when the light for the WiFi begins to blink. Use the app to add it and In my case Alexa found it as soon as I added it to the SmartLife App. Works perfectly, I am very satisfied. Already ordered a couple of more and once those are in a final round to finish my entire house with these light switches. Would like to see one without any WiFi features because in my home multiple switches control the same light and would like to change those to have an uniform look.

This switch is easy to install, had no problem setting it up on an IPad. Logged in on my Google Account and had it functioning right away. It is installed in a new house and all neutral wiring is in switch box, it is operating under cabinet lights, switch was installed to far from cabinets and counter so this is a fix for that. When we go out at night we turn this light on before we get home to have light in the kitchen upon returning. We have 4 other third party vender smart controls in the house, this is the best of them. In the 70’s I started using X10 and we have almost replaced every unit brought from the old house.

Switch’s were nice in the beginning…. And then the problems started. They are constantly going offline… requiring me to flip breakers to get them to reset. On 4 of them the glass has come off and are falling down. Save your money get something else.
