Pairs great with the Lutron Casita pedestals.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I love these switches, I use them in every room of my house. Perfect match for Philips Hue.

Easily Installed, Reliable in Use, Looks Good Too!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.Great (if pricey) product. Super easy to install and every bit as reliable as the first-party Hue products/accessories. I'm up to two already and am looking to install a third. The only thing I can really think to criticize about Lutron's aurora dimmer switches is that the gray ring stand out a bit if viewed from a 90º angle (see photos). It's a minor quibble but one you might notice if using on any switch that's placed parallel to an entrance.

This is worth it!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This goes on a regular light switch. You dime the lights or turn them on and off. It’s perfect if you cannot switch light switches or you don’t want to spend the money on a smart switch. It looks great. It looks like a different light switch all together. Easy to install, you don’t have remove anything. All you need is a small screw drive to tight the switch on the light switch in the on position. Trust me, if I can install it you can too. Never had any issues with it. Worth it!!!

Big meh
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This feels like a half-baked product and way too expensive for what it is. There's light coming out of the back of the knob. Wish there was some sort of foam to block the light. There's also a delay adjusting my A19 bulbs. It feels really cheap and hollow. It's not a satisfying click at all. It seems like it's gonna snap the thin plastic. Lutron needs to try harder.

Don’t look at the price - JUST BUY IT!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I have about 30 hue bulbs in almost every socket in my apartment (minus the fridge and the oven, due to the obvious lol) and 8 Lutron Auroras, one for every switch. Regarding the price, I know it’s a lot for what amounts to a dimmer with a button in the middle, haha. I only bought one originally and felt a bit sillier after opening it to find its primarily made of hard plastic. DO NOT LET THIS DETER YOU THOUGH!! I went and bought a couple more a day later and when I moved into my 2 bedroom apartment from my studio, I bought 5 more so all of my switches had one. Besides the build being plastic rather than stainless steel or aluminum, it is very much a quality product and works incredibly well with Hue. It is included as a Friend of Hue in the Hue app and setup takes a whole 30 seconds (if that) to setup. Could not have been easier and they work every time without ever skipping a beat. You will be very happy and much like the Hue bulbs themselves, you pay for the quality, integrity, and ease of use. Lutron outdid themselves and you won’t be disappointed!

Uninstalling/battery replacement not good
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Tried to make sure it would be easy to uninstall or change battery the mount came with the dimmer disk & now cannot remove dimmer from mount. I will return the other 1 ASAP...!!! VERY cheaply made I had to pry the mount off from the bottom & it nearly broke. It pressed the back to far when I had to pry it & it stopped being is use. Eventually I popped it back together. DO NOT BUY...WASTE OF MONEY!!!

Q: QuestionI want to remotely control two, 3-way, toggle switches; when paired, would communicate with the same 4 exterior Philips Smart LED bulbs. Can two, Lutron - Aurora Smart Bulb Dimmer Switches for Philips Hue Smart Lighting, both control equally in tandem?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I just tried it in my app, both buttons can be assigned to the same lights (via room).
Answered by Peedub
Q: QuestionDoes this require the Caseta hub?
Asked by Techdad.
- A:Answer No, this will pair with your hue hub and then you can assign it to a room. If you don't have the hub I believe it also pairs directly with hue lights.

Q: QuestionDoes it need a battery? How often does it need to be replaced?
Asked by Pescado.
- A:Answer It uses a watch battery. And yes it’s easy to replace. You will be looking at roughly about two years of battery life based on use.
