Greater than one weekSo good that I ordered a second for another set of lights, and may order a third! For those of you wondering, this does have a physical switch / dimmer you can use without your phone. Theres a single button that you tap to turn the lights on and off, or hold down to dim/brighten (it starts going one direction until it maxes out then goes the other direction). Wifi setup was very simple, and, while I havent looked into the fancier settings yet, the basic controls on the app more than meet my needs of manual on/off and a brightness slider. Ive made use of the timer feature as well to make sure we dont forget to turn the lights off after a night of partying. The construction seems solid and pretty rugged. I expect it will last a long time, even outside. I also like that it provides a slot to hook onto a screw or nail for easy wall mounting. My one suggested update is to have a longer power cord. Unless you have an outlet within about a foot of where you want this switch to be, youll need an extension. In my particular scenario, we had to run an extension along the side of the house. That extension goes to a triple outlet staked into the ground because I need at least 2 switches at this location and want to keep the connections off the ground to avoid potential issues with puddles. However, if I connect this switch directly to that staked outlet it will only be about 1.5 feet off the ground, which is pretty inconvenient for using the physical button. This means that I need to either live with that; buy and install another 3-6 ft outdoor extension, causing a setup of extension -> landscape outlet -> extension -> switch -> extension -> lights; mount the switch and leave the outlet hanging (ghetto and probably not 100% weather safe); or, hopefully, find a different cheap outdoor splitter that can be mounted to the wall right beneath the switch. I feel like the power cord should be 3-4 ft, which is long enough to go from the floor, where most extension cords reside, to a normal & convenient height to use the button.

> 3 dayProduct works well and is easy to install. More impressive is the customer service. The initial item I received got water in it during a heavy rainstorm due to the angle it was sitting (definitely have the outlet opening facing down!). One quick email and a new one was sent out to replace it (which has now survived successive rainstorms suggesting it might have been more user error than product error).

> 3 dayWorks good overall, but I have had a few annoyances. Ive had the about three weeks now. 1) Setup wasnt a complete breeze. Not terrible but I did have to remove the devices from the app and add them back a couple of times to get it to go through. 2) Several times both plugs (I bought 2) have gone offline, not at the same time. At least thats what Alexa says. Unplugging them from power and plugging back in causes them to start working again. 3) Ive noticed a flickering in my LED light strings when set to a low setting like 10%. Its not awful, but enough to be annoying.
