Lutron’s NEW 2022 Smart Dimmers Fix ALMOST Everything!

Great video! I've had problems with the OG Caseta dimmers causing most LED bulbs to flicker or not turn on unless at over 50% brightness. This includes bulbs Lutron says are compatible with the dimmer and work with non-smart Lutron dimmers. I see the Diva dimmer has "LED+". Will that improve LED bulb compatibility?

I installed all Lutron Maestro Switches back in 2016 and they worked perfectly with 0 issues. My house does also have a lighting panel which controlls certain main areas with keypads, but I think I will be replacing all the Maestro dimmers with the new Sunnata dimmers as they do look much nicer.

Sticking with kasa

I love my Lutron Caseta switches but I’m at the point where I’m giving up on pairing them with LED bulbs. I know all about the compatibility app. I’ve spent hours combing over the results. I’ve tried several brands that people have confirmed are the “best.” From my experience, none of them are perfect. Some bulbs work most of the time but flicker on occasion. It got to the point that I thought my newer home was incorrectly wired but it’s not. Pop in some incandescents, flawless victory. Shame really, I want to use the more responsible, longer lasting LEDs… but the performance is just meh.

I have no experience with either of them, except at work where I've clicked one or two of them and agree they're squishy. but fixing the dimming setting issue is absolutely worth it to me, even if the new ones are squishier than the old

$70 a switch is crazy!

Hello, What wallplate are you using to fit both lutron and leviton switches. I cannot for the life of me get the wallplate to line up when i mixed those two switches. thank you.

I personally prefer the squishy buttons because they are quiet. My kids somehow make the switches that click way too loud.

Awesome review! Thought I was listening to Nick Swardson for a sec lol.

Liked the video but would have left without clicking the like button...........the dad joke about the name of the switch being Diva got me to come back. Very funny and cute bit. :-)

I'm in the process of swapping out my dumb switches for these. So far have two installed and they are amazing. I think they're worth the money with the value you add to your home.

I always laugh at the 'suishy' button comments when it comes to these smart switched. Since I've installed mine a year ago, I use the voice command over 95% of the time when turning these lights on and off or dimming to whatever percentage I want. I don't even notice the lack of loud 'click' when I do press the switch the other 5% of the time, so to me, it really is a non-ssue. Can't wait to try these out!

I love your outros!

Currently slowly upgrading all our switches to Caseta switches. So far, the switches that are currently smart switches have been awesome and work flawlessly with Alexa and Homekit for me. Definitely worth it for me.

So do I need only one switch to control a threeway set up or do I need three of these one for each switch in a three way set up

Would you know if the Lutron Caseta Diva dimmer switch is able to directly connect to the Lutron Caseta lamp plugs? I have a room that I want to install the switch and have the switch turn on 4 lamp plugs. If not could I program the Lutron Hub to turn on the lamps and would it be instant or a delay as I currently have with Zwave which is why I am looking to upgrade.

Would you recommend Lutron switches with clear connect over a Z wave switch that might be cheaper and probably has a longer range since Z wave devices can work like a mesh network?

Would these switches work with a standard Zigbee dongle for use in Home Assistant?

Do you know of a “smart” MLV dimmer ? Looking for one for my under-cabinet lights in new kitchen. Thanks. Love your content

This is the best smart dimmer on the market by far.

$70...

I just don't get it. It feels so cheap. They're non-smart Diva line has the typical clicky tactile feedback that we expect. This just feels cheap.

Does this support z wave?

great video thanks

Incredible I like it so much 👍🏻

What’s the model# and name of this switch ?

Ridiculous price, Would never Spend that kinda money for a Dimmer Switch. Insane money and not worth it. Thanks for the review.

I just installed one of these and will be installing several others. This switch is so much better than the old switch, that complaining about “squishiness” is like complaining that your portion of caviar is just a bit too small. Give me a break!

Why does no one talk about Leviton?

Spouse approval
No because of the name

You can use Home Assistant to control a Lutron Pico remote to do whatever you want. I have a pico that turns on and off my Govee exterior lights, another pico for turning on and off lamps and I use HA to connect them to Lutron scenes as well. I also have a Pico that turns on and off my fireplace with bond. The Picos are really handy if you use HA.

I have the same setup older dimmers, I find they are good but there are issues. There is a min number of led lights needed on a circuit for it to work correctly. Does the new one have the issue? Also after a few years, suddenly in the led pot lights dont always turn on. Sometimes I have to turn them off and on again for them to work. Other times I have to cut the power (circuit breaker) and reset the Luton controller. Odd behaviour

Your wife came on at the end and showed us how cool she is in like 3 seconds.

It is the best switch

What do you think about the tapo smart dimmer from TP-LINK? It would be nice to have a review from you. Trying to stay away from spending too much on switches, I currently have zwave GE but need to add a lot more switches.

Sorry for the dummy question but can you have custom actions (like turn off all house lights or start a smart plug with hot water recirculating pump) in home assistant when pressing the smart switch?

I hate the click..... got to get one of these

I'm shocked you would prefer these over Z wave 😮

No pico like remote available for this new dimmer ⁉️

I am using this switch with 75w multi color hue bulbs but for some reason it flickers when I dim the light.
Any way to fix it?

Has someone who is visually impaired and her hearing I have an attached factor is actually kind of important

I wish they had something like with a fan speed combo. Having trouble finding one.

Hi “Smart Home Solver”

I'm planning to install the Diva switches at home and connect the dimmable bulbs with my Apple homekit but I’m wondering if I need to install a hub to get the auto off-time feature. I'd appreciate it if you can help me with that.

Thanks in advance.

What about for a fan that was variable speed?

Cheaper to go the eBay route. Love the new design. I had no idea about the delayed off feature until you showed us. That’s so cool

Lutron's are very wide. Might not fit old boxes. Levitons are less wide.

tactile TRASH

$70 wtf , slap my grandma and call me sissy
