Smart Light Switch, WiFi Switch Touch Wall Switch 1 Gang, Compatible with Alexa Google Home

Of all the light switches we have purchased and installed, this product is the only one that loses its connection at random, does not reconnect after a power outage, and can take 2-3 seconds to respond when it does decide to work. And to reconnect, you have to delete from Alexa, then the phone app, add back in the phone app, add back in Alexa. A waste of time. Can not recommend this, and wont be buying this brand again.

It took about 2 hours to install which was longer than I expected, but I was able to find all the help and instructions that I needed. Connecting took many attempts but I think that was because my WiFi was on the same circuit as my switches. Some of the help sources I found instructed me to press the reset button at the bottom left of the switch but it does not exist. Once I found that I could reset by holding the button for 5 seconds, I was successful. I have to retrain myself on turning on the light switch manually. If I stop in front of the switch and carefully press the middle of the button firmly, the light will come on. If I am sloppy, it will reject me, which offends me.

Main issue is the instructions are outdated, if you install small life app while linking to Alexa an error will pop up stating app is old and needs to be renewed. The correct app needed is called TuyaSmart, once installed, logged into you will be able to easily link the app to Alexa. Had the instructions been correct from the beginning the product would be a 5 across the board. Very poor effort on this vendors part.

First of all, if you dont know much about electric installation, seek someone who does! That said, this was easy to install. After finding the neutral wire, I thought this would be easy. I removed the old switch and wired this in place, including the new neutral connections. The switch includes the trails and connectors youll need to install it and the instructions are pretty clear (although I didnt need them). Once it was installed, pairing it to my phone was easy and I was pleased it integrated easily with IFTTT. I dont use Alexa or any other assistant, but I dont see why it wouldnt work perfectly. The app is easy to use. On top of that, the seller reached out to me to make sure it has all gone well and user support. Great switch and great seller. Highly recommended! If that wasnt enough, even my wife likes it! She says its the one light in the house thats always on when she needs it.

Installed with no difficulty. Downloaded app. Went through complex programming; guidance available only in app and very awkward. Worked manually and through scheduled on and off for a few days. Then scheduled functions did not occur. Still worked manually and showed operation to be scheduled but all failed to occur. Repeated app download and set up several times, still no response to scheduled events. Removed and replaced with KASA.

These are very easy to install with basic understanding of electrical work. I used them to take place of a couple of 3 way switches by disconnecting the second switch and using the third wire for the load wire running into the light. This did away with the second switch but it was no longer needed with the voice control anyway.

Looks great, works great. Blue light is way too bright in an otherwise dark room. (I use this for a ceiling fan) This wouldnt bother me if there was a software way to disable it, but they didnt think of that I guess. Light switch that downloads its own software to run from the internet not capable of controlling its own internal light. Ironic.

I have purchased the pair of switchs one has to be reset once every month the other is fine both set up the exact same way. needless to say I cannot find a way to contact the company for a replacement or explanation of a way to stop this or get a replacement.

After wiring these switches up, I tried to put the first one in to wifi setup mode. At first, it looked like a fast blink, but it just never got picked up by the Smart Life app. I also could not see a new MAC/IP address on my router (it does 2.4 and 5.0Ghz and has different names for each SSID). Also, the light it was controlling would just turn off after 3-4 seconds. Thats when I noticed it was flashing a blink code. Im not positive, but I think it was 7-6-4-3. I reached out to the email address mentioned in many of the other reviews, and while they did respond, they just kept telling me to read all of the instructions. This went back and forth a few times, and finally I just ordered two of the Martin Jerry smart switches. I have 5 of their wall plugs, and they all work great. After connecting the Martin Jerry switches, they just worked and setup was as easy as these should have been since they both use the Smart Life app. There was nothing wrong with my wiring or my network. These switches are KS-602. There is zero info on google about any blink codes, but there does seem to be a website that has people discussing flashing them with their custom firmware. Interesting hobby idea, but thats not for me. Also, I was only finding one other switch that came in a 2 gang kit (it is a KS-602s - I didnt want to risk it), so all I had to do was go buy a new face plate for the Martin Jerry switches. Other people on here are giving these switches 4 and 5 stars, so they must work, but somehow I got two duds. Its not the end of the world, but the amount of time I had to spend assuring Lulu with their support was excessive and a bit aggravating due to what I assume is a language difference. If you work with them, be patient. I did feel like they were genuinely trying to help.

the wires coming with it is super short, so it makes the installation a disaster. Other than that, it is a great product
