Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this to solve a wall light switch issue for a series of Hue bulbs. It looks like a standard dimmer switch which was a bonus. Setup was not as easy as it should have been because it came with a dead battery. Fortunately it is common sized button battery. With a fresh battery in place it connected quickly and controls the lights as planned. Would have been a 5 star review, but one star was dinged for not including a working battery. I plan to get more to solve another wall switch/hue light bulb issue. Hopefully the dead battery was not the norm.

I cannot believe I went this long not knowing that these existed. I was always getting upset all the time with my children because they kept turning off the lights and I could never control my bulbs with Alexa because the power was shut off. The great thing about these is that they look just as good as they work!

Make sure you have a phillips screwdriver for small screws. Thats the only tool you need. This is a much easier solution than smart light switches. You just put this over the top of a normal switch. I love it being able to use my voice (with Alexa and the Phillips Hue bulbs) to turn on/off lights. Fantastic and worth the price.

My biggest issue with hue lights are that if someone turns the switch off, there’s no way to control the lights. Well this is the perfect solution to that. It locks your light switch into the on position so you can always control it with the app or voice assistant. Once the switch is paired with your hub and assigned to a group of lights, you can turn it to control the dimming, and press the middle to turn it on or off. My only qualm is the price. I think it’s a bit high. I could use a few more, but the price is stopping me from getting more than I need.

I recently upgraded a goggle light switch in my bedroom. It was so easy to attach this device to my old light switch, and now I have a fully functional dimmer switch.

Lutron makes amazing products. This installs exactly as shown, covering up a wall switch and letting me have a dimmer with a smart bulb without doing any wiring!

These are expensive but they stop everyone from turning off the light switches. Easy to install and connect.

If you have Philips Hue bulbs and don't want to always mess with the app, this is a great addition to your setup. It installs in minutes with nothing more than a screwdriver to remove the switch cover. Then connect it to your system, and you've instantly got an on-off switch and dimmer!

The Lutron Aurora is an innovative solution to a niche point of pain in the smart-lighting ecosystem. Case in particular: my bedroom. My room has a single light switch (hardwired) which controls an electrical outlet underneath my desk. Plugged into this outlet is a floor lamp... as well as a power strip containing a handful of expensive electronics, one of which being my computer. So, you can imagine the multiple "heart attacks" I've suffered over the years - inadvertently cutting power to (and possibly damaging) my precious electronics - when all I wanted to do was turn off the light!!! This is where Lutron saves the day. By keeping the light switch forced in the upright "on" position, I can rest easy knowing that my electronics will always have a constant flow of electricity. (Of course, I also needed to purchase a Phillips Hue smart lightbulb - a small price to pay for such great relief!)

This thing solves my issue of having the hue switches next to the light switches. I love how natural these switches look. They look like factory dimmer switches when installed on white faceplates. The response time is instant and as long as the battery life is good, then I have no complaints.

This is a great alternative to changing your light switch to a smart switch. After buying Philips hue bulbs and being frustrated that other people in the house would turn off the light switch, this is a great solution!

Super easy to install and setup. It’s great to have a physical control for non-app users and general ease of use. This is handy in that it also stops the light switch from being turned off, which would render the wireless control of smart lights inoperable.

I love these for controlling my Hue lights. They hide the existing toggle switch or can be put anywhere. I like having physical buttons/switches to control my smart lights so I am not tied to my phone or voice commands.

If you own Philips Hue lights then these are a must! My wife kept turning the switch off which made the lights not work via voice command. This prevents that while giving her still a physical switch to use.

If you have Phillips Hue smart lights in your home, this is the best button to add to your home. It does what it says. It works every time. Great switch for the Phillips Hue ecosystem. Highly recommended!

Such a breeze to install, just goes right over the switch and clamps down with the included screw. Connected right to my setup, and have it controlling the living room. Makes it easy for people who don’t understand smart lights, and not having to yell at Alexa at times.

This accessory was easy to add to our Philips Hue lights in our living room lamps. Easy for the kids to use when they go into the room and set the lights to their liking. Push the center to on in a certain setting of brightness and turn the knob to dim.

I have 3 of these and they work as intended. No issues so far after 6 months of use.

I have purchased and used hundreds of smart home devices. At first, I loved the idea of them and got a little carried away and would buy any new type of new smart home device that hit the market. Over time I narrowed down my daily use of smart home tech to the ones that are actually consistently reliable, useful, aesthetically pleasing, etc. That being said, I can tell you that the Lutron Aurora is hands-down the best product to use for controlling your smart lights. Easiest installation you could imagine, 100% reliable, EXTREMELY customizable (if you use third party apps—very simple to do), pleasing to the eye… I could go on for a while about the quality of this product. I bought one just to try, but now have 7 of them throughout my home.

If you have philips hue and aren't going to change out your switches, just get these. They're the best option, especially if you're renting so it takes like 10 seconds to remove when you leave. They doo have a slight wiggle to them while mounted, which makes them feel a little cheaper than you'd expect for $40. But its by far the best option. Why didn't Philips hue just make this?
