Review on πŸ”² Lutron Caseta PICO-WBX-ADAPT Translucent Wireless Wallplate Bracket for Pico Remote by Nick Walker

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Imagine Pico being a wall switch

I've tried a lot of 'smart' home automation products and to be honest Lutron's Caseta lighting controls are probably the only ones I really like use and use installation. This particular gadget allows you to take the Pico remote and mount it like a wall switch, either on a wall box that you are not using (which used to be a 3-way switch for example) or just on a blank wall (with glue). You add your favorite pad (not included) and it's indistinguishable from a 'real' wall switch. Pico batteries last for years, but after all that time they're easy to remove and replace. You can then program the Pico to control any light you want, giving you more flexibility than traditional wired switches. (Glue can be carefully removed if you change your mind. Although I wouldn't be surprised if it sticks to the paint after a while.) Choices etc. It's pretty cool overall.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
