Hi again, John Stone the DIY Smart Home Guy on the channel that's all about helping you make intelligent home automation decisions for your affordable smart home.And if you’re looking for in wall smart switches, then this video is for you.
Last year I made a similar video about the GE and Leviton Z-wave switches and included the Lutron Caseta switch for good measure.Since GE and Leviton have released Z-wave plus versions, I decided to update the video.
The folks over at the smartest house.com sent over their entire line of Zooz Z-wave in wall switches.
Zooz is the house brand for the smartest house.
It’s also important to note that, since my last video, Leviton has updated their switch design, which makes me pretty happy.
Before we go too far, let’s get into why z-wave plus is better than regular old z-wave.I’ve left a link to a video that goes into more detail about Z-wave plus in the description.But in short, z-wave plus is comprised of a new Z-wave standard and a new chip. Let’s take a closer look at the Zooz switch. Aside from the fact that this is the lowest price switch of the bunch, there’s one thing that really makes the Zooz stand out. And, if you’re using a GE, Leviton or Lutron switch, the answer is yes.” For the Zooz, GE and Leviton switches, the answer is absolutely Yes. You’ll also find video links in the description below for the videos that install the GE, Leviton and Lutron switches in normal and three way applications.
If you are absolutely sure that you don’t have a neutral, you may want to check out the Lutron Caseta line of switches. You may recognize this switch as the one I use to control my bar light.It’s a great switch and gets pretty good reviews.
