Youngzuth Compatible With AMAZON AlEXA Smart Wifi Light Switches Touch Wall Switch Panel Replace 2 Switches in 1 Gang Wall Box Combination Work with Google Home and IFTTT Smartphone App Control

Awesome: Barn exterior and interior (LED) lights can be switched on via my phone so I won't be eaten by mountain lions any more.Good: wire connections accept 12 or 10 gauge thhn wire. (That's thick wire. Remember the switch is only 400w, though.)Less good: ==for the wiring I was doing, I had to pull separate grounds and neutrals (I think) from the panel instead of just pulling from this switch. Not a big deal. ==Lights on this switch (blue and green) which are used to set it up and indicate status are absolutely invisible in daylight. Not until twilight, and shading my view of the switch, was I able to see that it was working correctly and then perform the setup procedure correctly. ==Software setup was trickier than necessary because of Chinglish and not seeing the switch blue and green LEDs. ==The EULA you must agree to gives away broad rights to any camera data, BMI (yes, literally), to a company in China. You probably already have signed similar EULAs with facebook and google and instagram and amazon... but still.

For clarification this switch does work in it's own app SMART LIFE well and you even get voice controls and customization and timers etcBut it does not connect to your ALEXA nor GOOGLEPROS*Works in SMART LIFE app (includes voice control in app)*Touch panel is fairly responsive*Attractive but looses points for a brand on it (a corner has the word Youngzuth in about 8-10pt text)CONS*Does not connect to ALEXA - searches and finds nothing*Does not work with Google - Sign in does not work (maybe my location)*Voice control turns off and on all switches. It does not toggle switches individuallyMISC*Wiring diagram was wrong for me - think the ground and line were mixed up if i remember correctlythe switching on an off some people report is because of this wrong diagram, happened to me and i figured it out*switches "shine" Blue when on and there a faint but bright enough green when off so you can see it in the darkFrom research i found that this device may have worked but after updates and maybe Amazon and Google trying to standardize products it no longer workssource: edit amazon told me I couldn't link the reddit threadTL;DRif you want smart home functions and don't plan to integrate with ALEXA or GOOGLE this could work for youif you do plan to use with ALEXA or GOOGLE get the good brands stuff like WEMO, TP-LINK KASA, PHILIPS HUE

This switch was professionally installed by a licensed electrician. The switch was constantly turning itself on and off, disconnecting from the network, and doing a full reset of itself (which removed itself from the app). After contacting the seller, they sent another one that did THE SAME EXACT THING. We have another 2-gang single-pole switch that worked/installed without issue. Very disappointed and would not suggest wasting your money on this product.

This was my first smart wifi switch. What I found out is a 'gang' is a switch. So this is good if you plan to have a professional electrician expand one of your existing single switches into three, then it'll fit. But if you're replacing 3 standard rocker/paddle switches with this one, it'll be too small for the hole in the wall. So you'll either have a gaping hole in your wall and will need to reduce it's size with drywall and spend a lot of time at the hardware store trying to find a 1-gang box that actually attaches to this thing, because it doesn't come with a cover, or you'll be doing a bunch of dremeling and drilling to modify another cover to attach to this. Afaik, nothing exists that covers up a 3-gang hole in the wall and has an opening for a 1-gang switch in the middle. So, caveat emptor.Otherwise it works ok and uses the 'smart life' smartphone app to connect to alexa.

So far 2 switches both 2-gang and working great. Alexa and Google Assistant work perfect. If you can't get it to work, you need to enable the skill in Alexa app and setup the link in Assistant and both Alexa and Assistant you need to discover devices. Once that is done, it should work great.Update: Had a switch start randomly turning on/off and disconnecting from WiFi and the app. I contacted the seller, and they were great at handling the issue. They said there was a known defect in a few switches and sent me a new one. The new switch is slightly different in the way the wires all attach, but none the less the same switch. The replacement switch came within 3 days of me letting them know there was an issue.

Worked great for about 1 month then started dropping connection. Tried to reset the connection and the WiFi capability shuts off every minute or so. Wish I knew it would not work because setup was quite a chore also since there are no instructions provided that make any sense.

Had two smart life outlets on outside lights using the APP . I put this on the back porch lights switch and run the other two via wifi set up in app . Very easy and more convenient than using the phone all of the time , and as said had to run the neutral wire . So far all of devices for Smart life have worked great.

UpdateAm now able to control switches individually through alexa, by going into alexa app and changing the switches to lights, works great !After I figured the wiring out, was not able to connect to wifi, had to disable 5ghz on router temporarily to connect to switch, after that connected quickly and set up in smart life app and alexa, I can control switches individualy with app but not with alexa, which was a disappointment to me.

Looks good, set up is simple but it does not work as advertised. After set up it will loose wifi connection when I press any of the switches manually. It is frustrating. Wrote to the company waiting for their response.

Really attractive product. Sleek glass finish that illuminates in the dark.

Great
