TREATLIFE Single Pole Smart Light Switch, Neutral Wire Required, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi Light Switch, Works with Alexa and Google Home, Schedule, Remote Control

Bought this to put in my workshop to make the outside lighting smart so I could turn on or off from my house. It works well with Alexa as well if you set up a routine. Easy to install, and setup to your network! Plain and easy to follow instructions. Great job! I highly recommend.

This was easy to install (and I do not have a lot of electrical experience). I was careful to get an electrical tester and I followed all the instructions and it worked with no problems. The only small set back I had was that the wires in my wall were a bit thick, so the electrical twist caps that came with the product did not fit since they were too small. However I just used the ones that were already connecting the old manual switch to the wires coming from the wall and it worked fine.The reason I bought this was because it was advertised to work with IFTTT (If This Than That). I figured I would have to use the IFTTT app on my iPhone to program the switch to do what I wanted. However IFTTT wasn't even needed! To my happy surprise, this product already had built in, programable automation from the iPhone SmartLIfe app.So now any time between 8:30 PM - 7:00AM (our 2 year old's bed time) if our 2 year old gets up and turns on the light, it notifies me on my phone (through the app or you can program it to text you I think), and then automatically sets a timer for 30 minutes. Once 30 minutes is up, the light will automatically turn off. So I didn't even have to bother with IFTTT, I was able to set this all up using the SmartLIfe app.I haven't hooked this up to Alexa yet, but I'm very confident it will work with ease. This is an amazing product, that came nicely packaged, easy to follow instructions, and an app that has really had some thought put into it. I'd be happy to purchase more of these TreatLife smart switches. I think the only thing I would like to see added would be the ability to add this to the Apple's Home Kit. I would highly recommend this product.

The smart switch was easy to install and pair with Alexa devices.

I think I've installed four of these now - three were the dimmable kind and one was regular on/off. They're easy to install and come with everything you'll need. Unlike the TP-Link switches (which are complete garbage), these actually work. Zero issues getting the app to find each switch after installation (again, unlike TP-Link junk). Wi-Fi connection has been solid since I installed them about a month ago. The app is actually pretty good too...surprising. I have all of them connected to Alexa and they work as expected.The little touch sensor strip on the front of the dimmable switches is interesting but, in practice, they're a little annoying because it means you need to make sure to touch only the bottom of the switch if you just want to turn it on without altering the level you had it set at previously - the sensor strip is very sensitive. Another minor complaint is that these don't have any kind of "slow dim" feature - when you turn them off, they're instantly off and the same goes for when you turn them on. I used to have all Insteon switches (man, I miss those) which actually let you control the rate at which the light would turn on or off. Such a cool feature! Unfortunately, I haven't found any other manufacturer supporting that feature on their switches including these TREATLIFE ones.I've tried a bunch of smart switches over the years and I'd consider this company and Feit Electric to have the best ones, currently. Both are a good deal, easy to install/setup and reliable. Just avoid TP-Link/Kasa.

This was my first venture with installing a smart switch in my home. I was hesitant because it seemed so much easier to install a smart light bulb or a smart outlet. That plus the fact that it wasn't totally clear to me how they operated and their price seemed a little spendy. However, I had a switch that operated a small halogen spotlight and I couldn't find a smart bulb to replace the spotlight so I decided to get a smart switch. After perusing all the smart switches I could find on Amazon and other sites, I chose the Treatlife smart switch because of the very good reviews coupled with a very attractive price.Once I received the switch and installed it, I was extremely pleased. My first concern was that since the switch was ganged up with two other switches, (with the other two switches controlling other lights), I was wondering if the new switch was the same size as the old switch or if it looked much different than the other two switches it would be next to. As it turns out, I needn't have worried at all. The switch was the exact same size so the the cover plate worked perfectly and it looked virtually identical to the other switches. The only differences were that the new switch was a rocker switch (meaning that only one side of the switch is pressed to turn it on or off) as opposed to the other switches that are paddle switches (meaning that you press one side of the switch to turn it on and the other side of the switch to turn it off). Also the new switch has a small led light that lets you know if the switch is on or off. (Note: When the led light is on, that means the switch is off - I suppose so that you could see it in the dark).Another concern was understanding how easy it would be to install the switch into the electrical box. I've done enough simple electrical work around the house to feel fairly confident about handling this. It was slightly more complicated because of the triple-gang box and all the maze of wires associated with that, but all in all, there were no surprises and I had no problems. The new smart switch was a little bigger than the old switch and I was initially concerned about it fitting in the electrical box, but it all fit in snugly with a little pressure. For those of you who haven't done any electrical work at home, you could probably follow the directions easily enough on a simple one-switch electrical box.My last concern was understanding how, exactly, the smart switch actually works. It requires you to download the Smartlife app onto your phone. Since I already had the app to control other smart lights and outlets in my home, it was simple to connect the new smart switch to the app. Holding down the rocker switch for 5 seconds caused the small light on the switch to blink red; the app on the phone was invoked and requested to add a new device which immediately recognized the new switch and registered in the app. I gave it a name: "Spot Light" - not very creative, but functional. My home is powered by Google Assistant, but I'm sure Amazon Alexa acts very similiarly, So now I can say, "Hey google, turn on the Spot light" and sure enough, the spotlight turned on and the small led light on the smart switch turned off. Conversely, I can say, "Hey google, turn off the Spot light" and sure enough, the spotlight turns off and the small led light on the smart switch turns on. But, and here's what my wife really likes, you can still just walk up to the smart smart switch and turn it on or off with your finger. Or you can turn it on with a voice command and then turn it off with your finger. or vica versa. Cool! I also added an automation routine in the Smartlife app to turn the spotlight on at sunset every night. Also cool!So, all in all, I am very pleased with this product and am planning on adding another Treatlife smart switch to control the four overhead dining room lights. Adding one smart switch would be way cheaper than adding four smart lightbulbs.

Easy to install. Good set of directions. Works perfectly! Definitely check to e sure you have a Neutral. And testers to check current.
