One of my Z-Wave switches died recently and I decided it was time to try Lutron Caseta.
This system is not cheap compared to other options, but I think it is better than Z-Wave if you want to ensure your smart home can adapt in the future.
In this video, we talk about the benefits of Lutron Caseta, and we install a switch. Then we connect it to 5 different smart home platforms.
So whether you are using Home Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Smartthings, or Apple Home this video will show you it is easy to get started with Lutron Caseta.
