I bought a couple of these because it was cheaper than just getting the plug in dimmer modules alone, and I needed 4. I gave the extra bridge to a friend, and installed a On-Off switch to automate his porch lights, as his in wall timer switch died. I have one of the dimmers in a cabinet to control my counter top LEDs. One is for my nightstand lamp, and two are on living room lamps across the room from each other. I like that I can pair the two living room lamps to one Pico. I have a pico on my end table and mounted one to the wall by the front door by adding a longer switchplate and using the wall mount kit. The bedroom pico is on a dual pedestal with my fan control, and the kitchen pico is also mounted to the wall in a triple gang configuration. These are convenient, but very expensive. I'm replacing Insteon dimmers which were far less money. These also do not dim as low with some of my lighting, causing flickering on some of them at low levels

I havent finished installing yet, but i am already annoyed. I had a similar system at my old house. I installed the dimmer switch, went and sat down in my chair with my remote, and then turned the lights down. That simple. All i wanted to do was the same with the lutron caseta and then use the remotes to turn down the lights, but no, lutron is not happy with that simple desire. Once you install the dimmer switch, you then have to... 1. download the app to the phone 2. set up an account 3. make sure the password is of at least medium strength. I tried a name with numbers and a special sign and it still kept coming out to weak. I finally had to create a 14 character password to get it to pass (this is to make sure those infamous hackers out there with a desire to turn peoples lights off dont gain access to your account i guess, oh me oh my!) 4. tap a button on the bridge you had to hook up to your router taking up one of your available ports. 5. get told it needed to update 6. unplug the bridge and plug it back in and then wait for the update. 7. 3:37 - wait 8 to 15 minutes for the update to complete according to the app while keeping your phone from going to sleep since it states the app needs to stay open and active. 8. 3:55 still waiting 9. Run a speed test to make sure internet speed is good. wait a little longer 10. 4:00 - waited 23 minutes - 11. hit back button 12. starts over at beggining. 13. next next, tap button on bridge, unplug bridge, plug back in, needs update blah blah blah 14. back to the 8 to 15 minute screen 15. 4:16 - on phone with lutron caseta support when update finally finishes 16. Add the dimmer switch and the remote switch via the app 17. Done Ok, so deffinately a pain but the end result is nice. .. Can turn the lights on and off with app .. can use the remote to turn lights on and off .. App shows you if the lights were left on at which point you can turn them off. .. little stand to hold remote is heavy and stays in place. Priced pretty high. still think the process should have went a little smoother. seeing as how i couldnt really find any alternatives out there i guess i would recommend to a friend. Would probably be really nice if you had a housefull of stuff like this but i only needed the one switch for the media room and maybe one for my bedroom. You decide.

This is the best addition to our Caseta products yet! It was very easy to install taking just minutes. Simply plug into the outlet and then plug the lamp cord into it, and you up and running. The remote easily programs on the app on my phone. Total install time was less than 5 minutes. We love that we can control it from any smart phone or tablet. Arrived within a few days of ordering. Creating lighting scenes and schedules is easy in the Lutron App on my phone. I can schedule it on and off anytime of day/night or I can control it from anywhere with my phone.

Set up was very quick and very easy. Instructions were simple and easy to follow. Once you download the app and follow the walk through, pairing the device and remote takes a matter of seconds. The controls work great from the app and once you pair the device via the app the remote responds very quickly and works great. The color is white and matches any color you have in your home.

This starter kit works nicely and is pretty simple to use. The kit includes a Caseta wireless smart bridge, a Caseta wireless plug-in lamp dimmer and a Pico remote control. The plug- in lamp dimmer can control up to two table or floor lamps via the front controls or the Pico remote control. The Pico remote is very compact in size and can be placed on a night stand, end table, etc.The smart bridge allows you to use your mobile device to control lights plugged into wireless plug in lamp dimmer using the free Lutron app. You can create a personized schedule so lights turn on/ off at set times. The smart bridge is listed as also being compatible with Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, Nest and select Honeywell thermostats. I decided to try this out by using it to control the lights on my Christmas tree. While at home I used the remote control to turn tree on and while out I used the smart bridge to turn lights on via my smart phone when I got close to home. It works nicely !

The Caseta Plug-in dimmer kit is the easiest remote lighting control upgrade there is. To control cord type lamps, simply plug in the Caseta plug-in dimmer and plug the lamp cord into one of the two outlets. Without being too overwhelmed with the Caseta features we just tried the kit with the wireless remote first. Basically it is just a light switch and dimmer on a small remote. I will state that the printed instructions are clear and easy to follow. Then we added the bridge and setup the network and the app. The app walks you through the steps to setup the app wireless control. You need a internet wireless connection and a smartphone (Apple or Android) for the app install. Once the setup is complete we can now use either the remote or our smart phone to operate the lighting plugged into Caseta plug-in dimmer. The really neat thing is we can simply move the Caseta plug-in dimmer wherever we need within our home. No hardwiring in network changes are needed. We had it in our living room for the table lamps. For the holidays, we relocated the Caseta plug-in dimmer to the dining/foyer area to control the decorative lights. We thought of buying another Caseta plug-in dimmer but just decided to wait out over the holidays. We didn't have a use for an additional Caseta at this time once the holidays passed. The app is easy to use and works well even when away from home. Once at home I prefer using the remote - its just faster to grab it versus the phone and then open the app. I haven't used any other features of the app yet or tried it with our Amazon Alexa. For now our primary need is to operate the table lights in our living room; ON/OFF/DIMMING. Our compact fluorescent didn't care for the low dimming even though it was dimable so we changed the bulb to an LED - perfect now.

So to start this is a plug in lamp dimmer switch remote device. Will only work with 2 prong lamp plugs. The switchs are made nice , looks good and have several function buttons . They are plastic. The main switch is really useless unless your lamp plug is somewhere accessible , mine is behind night stand so other then a plug port and receiver the switches don't do much for me other then for set up. The remote is the size of a regular wall,switch and about a 1/4 of an inch thick with and adhesive back to place where you want. The bridge is small and comes with power plug and LAN wire. Hook up to a router is easy. Pairing the receiver and remote was straight forward no big issues along with the free app. Control from the free app worked well no big lag time etc. Since I have Wink I really wanted to control this thru the Wink to keep my home automation in one place. Pairing was very easy no issues along with being able to control thru the Wink App. So if you dont have a home Hub . The bridge is a must along with using the free app. If your going to control this thru a home hub the supplied bridge is not needed just buy the switch and remote a save a few bucks. Overall I'm happy with the product and it's usability.

IT WAS REALLY HARD TO OPEN THE PACKAGE! The Caseta plug-in lamp dimmer kit is a three items set that features smart bridge, Pico remote and two-blade polarized outlets with dimmable controls on it. The dimmer can take the bottom plug of a standard duplex outlet. The other physical difference between the lamp dimmer and the wall switch is that the former has a single led indicator instead of the seven led's on the wall switch. Grey plastics for the "lower" and "off" buttons are a nice cosmetic touch. The Pico remote has the same controls and single led indicator as the lamp dimmer, and adds a domed center button to implement a "favorite lighting level" feature. This remote has a long-life lithium button cell battery. Lutron says the battery will last for 10 years of ordinary use, and it is easily accessible for replacement. There is a wide slot on the bottom of remote for easy batteries replacement. I think it's so small that it is easily misplaced. Works great! I have it paired with a Wink Hub which took a call to tech support to figure out why the remote wouldn't pair with the controller after pairing with the wink hub. Support knew exactly what to do and I was up and running in no time. For those thinking of using with a Wink home hub, you need to add the dimmer and the remote to the wink app. From the wink app, you can then tell the remote to control the dimmer again. Once the dimmer is paired to the wink hub, it can't be paired to the remote anymore. Rather the wink app will do it for you, also it can be program as a geo location for example if your phone has GPS on and you are on the driveway it will turn your light on automatically.

The Lutron wireless Caseta Smart Lamp Timer Kit contains a plug in lamp dimmer/timer, a remote, and the smart bridge. To use the system, you first must download the free app and install it on your mobile device or tablet. After creating a Lutron Caseta account, you then link the smart bridge to your home router. To link the smart bridge you need to use a supplied Ethernet cable, the smart bridge is not Wi-Fi enabled to link to your network, it requires a direct Ethernet link, the only negative I found in using this system. You next follow the on-screen prompts from the app to get the bridge up and running. Smart bridge only links to a 2.5 Ghz network when establishing a connection to your phone or tablet. Total time, about 10 minutes. After the bridge is set up, you add devices into your Caseta App. First, you add the plugin lamp module and set it up, and next the remote. Just follow the on-screen instructions, very easy and quick to do. After that, you can control any table or floor lamp plugged into the module from either the remote or your mobile device. It works with LEDs – up to 100 watts, and incandescent and halogen bulbs up to 300 watts. The bulbs must be dimmable if you intend to use the dimming function. For the basic on/off and dimming features, it works great. Remote has a range well beyond line of sight as it’s linked to the bridge via the network. Advanced features of this system set it apart from other basic remote systems. You can set the scene to dim your lights based on watching a movie, etc. You can set a timer feature to turn the light on and off, and it is smart based on where you are located to track automatically seasonal changes. It also has a “welcome home” feature that turns your lights on when you arrive based on a geofencing feature of where your phonies located. Another option is that the system is compatible to control Lutron’s Smart shade system and also works with Alexa and Apple Home Kit. System is expandable to add more plug in modules, as well as wall mounted modules. You can replace your existing wall dimmer switches with a Lutron unit and control it from your phone or the remote. Overall, a very good and expandable full control lighting system.

The setup was quick and easy. The bridge allows for up too 75 other devices in smart home setup. This hides the extra cord from a wired lutron lamp dimmer and you can control multiple lamps from the Pico remote.
