RunLessWire Click For Philips Hue - Light Switch

Q: How do these work, what would be the usage cenario, they don't really have a description

A: It would appear to be similar to the Hue Wall Switch, but without the need for batteries. You'd be able to turn on or off Hue lights with the press of a wall button instead of using the app. I used a Hue Wall Switch to add basement lights where there was no existing switch wiring. I had a floor lamp plugged in with constant power with a Hue bulb installed. Mounted a switch like this to a nearby wall with double sided tape. Programmed the switch to operate the lamp. I haven't tried this specific model yet, but the other Hue switch would even let you program various settings. Example: One tap for full brightness. 2 taps for 50% brightness, 3 taps for Blue lighting. The option of using kinetic energy for the switch power is intriguing.

Favorite Hue Switch
My house is mostly smart lights, but I own several wireless remotes and switches (Hue Remote, Lutron Aurora and now the RunLess). They're mostly for my visitors so they don't feel confused when they wanted to turn on a light. I removed my old dumb dimmer, capped the wires and placed this switch over it. Each section can do something specific and up to three rooms can be selected. You can also replace the double rocker with a single rocker.

Really cool light switch for Hue
It literally needs no wiring - no power, no batteries, etc. It gets its energy from being used by a person. This does mean, however, clicking the switches requires more than average effort - to the degree that it's slightly annoying. It also works maybe 98% of the time. Once in a while, especially after just (like a second later) being used, it does not work. Being able to be installed in current outlet boxes or just somewhere else entirely is a really cool benefit. With the Hue software the function of the switches is WAY more customizable than just on/off. You can activate scenes, control color and brightness, etc. A switch can control any group of lights too, not just a singular light.

Clever way to control Philips Hue bulbs
I had some wiring challenges in a 93 year old home. I was able to solve it using Philips Hue bulbs and this switch. I can program it to control my lights in scenes or to switch different lights on an off. For example, in our master bedroom, we have two bedside lights, three wall lights and a floor lamp. The switch top right switches on lights on with a warm tone for the evening. The switch top left switches all lights on with a bright tone for the day time. The lower right switch switches all lights off and the lower left adjusts the lights so that only the bedside lamps are on. It also needs no wires and batteries. It's magic!
