Review on Lutron MSCL-OP153M-WH Maestro LED+ Motion Sensor Dimmer Switch No Neutral Required White by Luckie Davidson

Lutron MSCL-OP153M motion sensor

If you are not into programming electronics, then this is not the dimmer/motion sensor for you. First thing I did was read the directions supplied, figured I had it nailed. Installing was a 'piece of cake' - there is no 'neutral' involved, just the green wire (ground) and the black (hot) wires. I wrote down everything I felt I needed to do since I did not want the factory defaults, 5 minutes of no activity before turning off. I wanted the 1 minute off option and it took me about a 1/2 hour to finally figure it out. Who ever wrote the instructions, should state when you are in the 'programming mode,' go to where you want to make the changes, get the correct option blinking, press 'T' and you are done - WRONG, you have to wait for the blinking light turns solid when holding the 'T' - the turning solid is not mentioned in the instructions. Once I got that figured out, my lights turn off in a minute, it also holds whatever you set the dimmer at. Does this do a lot, yes and for the cost of just a dimmer switch that would be needed for the 8 LED's I have in the bathroom. The unit fit into a existing metal outlet box with no problems if you are concerned about the size.
