RunLessWire - Click For Philips Hue - Light Switch - Ivory

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.

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.

I'm a big fan of Hue lighting for my home - but I didn't like that the connected wall switch always had to be in the UP / ON position in order for the system to operate as I wanted. Now I use the RunLessWire switch and don't have to worry about someone in the house turning a wall switch DOWN / OFF and effectively disabling some functionality. I programmed 4 functions in the switch (+ dimming) - couldn't be happier.

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!

Works great but the switches are a little touch for guests. You have to give it a get push unlike a standard switch. I love it and family has gotten used to it. Simple install.

This is a great option if you hate the Hue-branded light switch. It looks better and can even be installed in your current switch box.

I have a ton of hue lights in my house. Ill spare you the long speech. Ill just say these switches feel like something from a childs toy. The construction is exceedingly cheap. The switch feel is aweful. They legitimately are pile of trash. Solo cups use better plastic.

Great item nice to use very convenient 5 stars. A plus.
