    Purchased a couple of these for Christmas lights and have since used them for any light timer uses. Connects to Samsung Smartthings without issue. Very easy to program with Smartthings.

    Worked 1 out of 10 times

    Bought 2 of these. Prior to pairing with hub...they both worked (pressing the button to turn on/off). While pairing, I have to press this button again...it would not work any more. Tried it without pairing...maybe at least 8 times and it worked again....then tried it again and did not work any more. I already have 5 of these which I bought about 3 yrs ago and wanted to add some more for Christmas lights and for lamps to turn on when we go on vacation. I like them..but since it failed 9 out of 10 times (at least)...I would not recommend.

    Pressing the on/off button works sporadically. Most of the time it does not work...which makes it hard to add to my Z-Wave hub.
