Leviton Smart Switch Review (D215S)

[@catherineb8175]

the automated "off" after 2 hours etc. seems like it would be great for all home lighting

10 months ago. How they handling this days? Debating on this or waiting on sales for the Lutron... But Lutron just so expansive.

HAD NO IDEA THESE COULD SYNC WITH THE VOICE FUNCTIONS RE: SIRI, EASIER THE BETTER.

Is there a vid of the install. I’m in double box 2 switches. 1 switch will be wireless the other is standard wired switch. Not sure how it reads all those wires in the box. Separating the feeds to the correct line

This is more than twice the price of the kasa switches. What value distinguishes it to warrant the price?

[@embracethesuck1041]

Independent wireless 3-way (that doesn't require a hub or wifi)?

[@ac-h716]

It's better looking!!

[@orangechild2]

It's future upgradable to matter.

[@jesustello4110]

Can i turn it off-on if out of range out wifi?

[@GamerRadar]

I have a DW15S and the relay is starting to fail in it (again). I replaced the relay once in it already. It looks like this new generation still has a relay in it (did I hear a click in the video?). Really wish they'd go solid state like the dimmer switches are. I don't want to wind up using a dimmer switch for just on/off, but I'm sick of these things only lasting like a year. My only load on it is an Edison-style LED light. I can't imagine how little the lifetime would be if it had even a 5 amp load it had to switch. I am also getting tired of Leviton's cloud services being down at VERY inconvenient times. The whole point of this is that my switches are across the room from my bed. I can turn them on and off without having to stumble into things in the dark. This morning the services were down, so I had to walk across my room with my phone light and turn on my lights manually. Does anyone make a system that is more robust (in terms of solid-state switching) and that one can host on their own local server? I don't need any kind of Alexa or Google integration, but I'd need there to be a phone app that exists already (I can't do that kind of stuff). Or should I just bite the bullet and do something with a Raspberry Pi inside of a cabinet with a bunch of solid-state relays and learn to code apps?

[@sbfieldhockey]

wow I've never seen these before

[@phubeats]

Ay-lee-ex-ay is a new one 😂

[@shandradm911]

You just didn't mention what would happen if the Internet disappeared?

[@kjkromm]

Then you turn it on and off like you always did.

[@malinoverhill]

What is with “a-l-e-x-a”?😂
