Wall Tap Dial Light Switch, Portable, White - 1 Pack - Requires Hue Lights and Hue Bridge - Smart Home - Easy, No-Wire Installation

I’m a big fan of Philips Hue products for building a smart home. While they can be expensive, they just work so well and integrate seamlessly. I bought two of these Wall Tap Dial Light Switches for our guest rooms to easily control multiple lamps at once, and they’ve been fantastic. The dial is super convenient for adjusting the lighting, and it makes the space feel more functional and streamlined. The only downside is the price—it’s a bit on the higher side—but for the quality and ease of use, it’s definitely worth it.

The point of having smart lights is to be able to control them from your phones among other things you can do (automation, etc). So why have a physical control? That's because this Tap Dial can do much more then simply a button/switch. The dial for instance allows fine adjustment of brightness conveniently! And of course for the elderly who find controlling via the phone a hassle.

These are great for turning hue lights on and off, dimming and setting scenes. I’ve been adding several around the house to stop needing to either pull out my phone, or more importantly to stop barking out Alexa commands. It’s allowed me to remove Alexa devices throughout the home and use normal switches along with scheduled routines. People also don’t need to know Alexa commands or have the app on the phone to simply turn lights on, dim the or turn them off. Mount them next to my regular light switches and they fit right in nicely. Good solid quality.

Antes a gente controlava tudo com a Alexa, mas quando acabava a luz ou internet caía (mesmo com no-break no modem do Wi-Fi), a gente ficava na mão. Agora isso não acontece mais, o controle funciona sempre que tem o wifi, sem importar se tem internet ou nao. Consigo ligar e apagar as luzes de cada quarto, inclusive da sala do mesmo controle, e ainda regular a intensidade da luz. A configuração foi super simples. E o que achei mais prático é que ele tem ímã: dá pra tirar da base e deixar do lado do computador, da cama, onde for mais útil no momento — e depois colocar de volta no lugar certinho. Tô usando há quase 1 mês e até agora tá tudo funcionando perfeitamente. Chegou muito rápido, so o primeiro pedido nao chegou, mas na amazon pedi devolução sem problema. Prós: - Funciona mesmo sem internet (se as lâmpadas ainda estiverem alimentadas) - Muito prático de usar e configurar - Controle por zonas e ajuste de intensidade - 4 botoes permite configurar zonas diferentes ou configurar uma mesma zona com varios modos. - Ímã facilita deixar onde quiser Contras: - A função da rodinha só funciona pra uma zona que você escolhe - Preço é meio salgado Mas no geral, vale muito a pena!

I love all philips hue products in general. This switch is a great option for my system and I like pre-setting the light modes.
