Not all electrical wiring is compatible with this installation. In some cases, your house may be wired to an older standard, or, your house was wired improperly. If you do not have a white neutral wire in the switch box, this video will not help you. In certain cases, your existing 3 way switch may not have a traveler wire. We cover this scenario in the video. We also introduce a new type of wire connection with the IDEAL IN-SURE Push in wire Connectors.

DIY Smart Home Guy creates how-to videos for smart home automation centered around Z-Wave and Zigbee devices. Review videos are generally centered around Hubitat Elevation, SmartThings and Vera. I personally run Hubitat as my primary smart hub, however I do test products on the hubs mentioned. I understand that a home automation hub is not a path for everyone. I chose this path because I am a firm believer is advanced automation and local control.
