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

I mounted 2 of these to control my exterior lights. I could only get one to connect to my phone. They do not have a dusk to dawn setting, so I have to change the on and off times to match the sunrise and sunset times.

Installed in November 2019, died in March 2023. Not horrible, but I expect more life from a switch/relay. Good thing I ordered a 2-pack and only needed one. Well see how long the second one lasts. FWIW, the device worked great while it lasted. I should mentioned that I had it on a sunset/sunrise automatic trigger using IFTTT and Google Home, so I rarely physically touched the switch. It turned on and off at least once a day every day for almost 40 months before it stopped responding to touch and would no longer connect to the WiFi.

Installation was straight forward. Works well with the Tuya app.

Beware you need a neutral wire to connect this to your wall. If you are not sure what to do, call an expert. If your existing switch only has two wires hooked to them, look the for the third one, should be there. You only need to add a small section to connect it to your new switch. Get some cable from your hardware store, if you dont know wich one, ask the sales person. Again, if you dont want to go over the trouble, get an expert.

Overall this switch works great! I think the look of it is sleek and modern and fits well. Installation was pretty easy, but I do wish the screws that hold the wires in place were a little wider. Just make sure you have them holding well before trying to push the switch into the box, really not too much work. I use Google Assistant and it works like a breeze! I love these, the only knock I have with it is the clicking noise is a little louder than I anticipated. Not a big deal but its noticeable. Still updating my smart home but will definitely buy again!

This was easy to install. App is ok, but i use google home to voice control the switches. Integration between apps was easy. I now have every switch in my home replaced with these smart switches. Great value for your money and works perfectly! I will offer a bit of tech advise. These switches run off of 2.4ghz wifi, now why is this important to note? Some of the newer routers even those stock from internet provider, come with automatic switching betwee 2.4ghz and 5ghz. This is usually achieved by using the same ssid. Well, most smart phones connect to 5ghz automatically when possible. So when you are initially setting up this product i recommend you either manually switch to 2.4ghz on your phone or temporarily disable the 5ghz on your router. If your switch is on 2.4ghz and your phone is on 5ghz the app will not find the device.

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.

To start off, the vendor I bought this through Lesim is very helpful and responsive. 5 stars for the vendor! The vendor sent some instructions along with my first purchase that were very helpful. The switch looks nice and works well with Alexa. You first must set it up with the Smart Life app, but once you link the app with your Amazon account it merges with Alexa seamlessly. When you install an additional switch it auto adds to Alexa. My issue is quality. I have installed 5 of these switches in my house so far and 1 failed out of the box and needed a replacement. (Amazon was very responsive and quick about replacing it.) When reading other reviews before I started buying these switches I found others had this failure rate issue as well, but the ones that worked (most of them) were liked. As with most electronics, these are made in China. That old adage regarding Chinese manufacturing quality not always being too high seems to hold up with this product. If you are expecting to do a larger installation project all at the same time, then you may want a spare or two on hand.

Note, these REQUIRE a 4th neutral wire! I had to have our Contractor run a 4th wire in order for these to work. After that, no issues. Easy Alexa integration.

Basic electrical skills will allow you to install this with little to no effort. However, the back of the unit that goes in the wall is bulky, and makes wire management essential to get it to fit properly.
