Review on ๐Ÿ”† TOPGREENER TDHS5-N Humidity Sensor Switch: Automated Control for Bathroom Fan, Adjustable Timing, UL Listed - White by Nathan Guzman

Revainrating 3 out of 5

TOPGREENER succeeds where Leviton failed

Before purchasing this switch I reviewed (do the same thing) two Leviton IPHS5 switches, both purchased from Home Depot. I know about electrics and yes they were installed correctly. My whispering Panasonic fan (which spins up slowly) just didn't work. The fan would start spinning slowly every few seconds and then shut off. After failing with Leviton I switched to this product hoping it would work. You haven't let me down. This product worked great the first time. Slightly less important is the fact that this product is much easier to program than the Leviton version. I've made up my mind to only give four stars because of the wiring. This switch connects to the Romex with a stranded wire. It is not possible to insert the Romex directly into the back of the Switch. Maybe it's just a preference, but I've never liked threaded wire. However, I couldn't be happier. This product has worked where Leviton failed me.

Pros
  • Not just useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • There are shortcomings
