How it's going to work:
- Every few minutes, we're going to release more inventory.
- Shortly, the button below will turn back to yellow (unless we sell out).
- At that point, try adding it to your cart again.
Pro Tip: If that works, checkout as fast as you can. It won't be reserved until you are in checkout. Good luck!

Description
Features
Peace of mind
Set lights to automatically adjust with changing seasons so your family always comes back to a well-lit home; you can also enable the Smart Away feature to randomly turn your lights on and off to look like you're home even if you're away.
Most connected
Caseta connects with more leading smart home devices - including Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, the Google Assistant, Serena shades and Sonos - than any other smart lighting control brand.
Control your way
Caseta puts the smarts in the switch so you can control your lights a variety of ways - via the free Lutron app, your voice, or from the wall.
You can create personalized schedules to turn on, off, or dim lights at set times to best fit your everyday routines, or activate favorite lighting scenes with the touch of a button.
Reliably smart
The smart bridge doesn't use Wi-Fi, so you get super-fast, ultra-reliable smart lighting that works right, without slowing your Wi-Fi down with more devices.
Set it and forget it
Always keep your smart light functionality. Even when the Wi-Fi goes down, there's no need to reset your schedules and scenes or reconnect everything when it comes back online.
Get more, spend less
One Caseta smart switch can control many bulbs at once; make many bulbs smart, even your existing bulbs. Get smart control of multiple styles of dimmable LED, incandescent, and halogen bulbs.
Works in any home
Unlike other smart dimmer switches, Caseta works in any home, of any age, as it does not require a neutral wire.
Easy 3-way setup
Create a 3-way by mounting the included Pico to almost any wall surface without cutting holes or pulling wire, with a Pico wallmount bracket (PICO-WBX-ADAPT sold separately). You can also replace existing 3-way switches by mounting the bracket and Pico over the backbox.
Technical details
Works with up to 150W dimmable LED light bulbs/CFL light bulbs or 600W incandescent bulbs/halogen bulbs; not rated for low voltage applications (i.e. track or landscape lighting).
Kit includes
(1) Caseta smart bridge, (1) Caseta dimmer switch with wallplate, and (1) Pico remote control.

Smart switch better than using smart bulbs
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5These aren't cheap. And, they do require a hub (included in this kit). Hub is pretty tiny, smaller than my Philips Hue hub. Just a bit of dislike for all these hubs, although it seems to make the system very reliable. Now, this switch is AWESOME. Much more effective (and cheaper) than getting smart bulbs everywhere that are somewhat inconsistent. Integrates great with Alexa control. Very happy. Only thing that I slightly don't like, is the slow ramp up/down of light when turn off or on. Some might find this cool, i kind of just wish the light went instant off.

Easy Setup

Quality5 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5This is a great starter kit to integrate your Lutron smart switches. It was less than 20 minutes to install the switch, bridge and setup for integration of your Amazon devices. I’ve had this installed for several months and have not had any issues.

Best choice for Smart Home

Quality5 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5If you're going to do a smat home.. these are a great choice. They now integrate with Ring so you can turn on lights when the Ring Doorbell detects motion, or if the doorbell rings... a bit pricey though...

Q: QuestionWould I be able to control Eve Light strip with this?
Asked by Charles.
- A:Answer The PD-6WCL dimmer that comes in this kit is rated for 150W of compatible LED/CFL or 600W incandescent/halogen. If using LEDs with this dimmer, Lutron recommends visiting www.lutron.com/ledfinder or www.lutronc.om/ledtool to see which LEDs are compatible. If the lights intended for the application do not show up in the results, Lutron recommends contacting the lighting manufacturer to see which dimmers are listed as compatible.

Q: QuestionWhy do I need a bridge?
Asked by MD.
- A:Answer The Smart Bridge allows you to control your Caséta Wireless controls and Lutron Serena® remote controlled shades from anywhere with your smartphone, using the free Lutron App for Caséta Wireless. The bridge provides multiple benefits over Wi-Fi products: It is ultra-fast and reliable ensuring your lights react instantly every time you adjust them from the app or Pico remote control. The bridge prevents the cluttering of your Wi-Fi network by acting as the single point of connection to the cloud. It is also easier to set-up and enables more local control/integrations with other smart home products.

Q: QuestionI your description, there are a number of compatible devices listed but no dependency of 3rd party hubs requirements mentioned. Does the hub support native z-wave (+) and zigbee devices or must another hub be incorporated to control them?
Asked by AI8UT.
- A:Answer Lutron utilizes its own proprietary communication frequency called Clear Connect. The Caseta Smart Bridge does not have ZigBee or Zwave capability built-in. Lutron is compatible with several third parties that do incorporate Zigbee and Zwave, though. You can see these third parties listed here: https://www.casetawireless.com/works-with.
Answered by lutron
Q: QuestionThe benefits state: “The smart bridge doesn't use Wi-Fi, ...”. So this implies the Lutron Smart Bridge is stand-alone so if you lose internet connectivity the Lutron bridge will continue to work with the app within the confines of the wifi network?
Asked by AI8UT.
- A:Answer Yes, the Caseta Smart Bridge will continue to operate despite losing internet connection.
