    • >>> DOES THE JOB
Size: 1 Pack
BOTTOM LINE > Does the job, but there are minor design tradeoffs. That is, some of the touted "features" have small drawbacks. > Depending on your circumstances, dimmable LED bulbs may work just as well for you with your "legacy" "incandescent" dimmers and controllers. > Depending on your circumstances, you may find that incandescent bulbs work better for you, with either a "legacy" dimmer, or with this dimmer. PROS > Works with any kind of ordinary dimmable lightbulb -- incandescent, halogen, or LED (with caveats). > Don’t be freaked by the warnings that the Maestro “requires special wiring”. As long as you have two different wires, one for the fan (usually red or yellow), and another for the light (usually red or yellow), plus a (usually black) “hot” wire, you can use a Maestro. > Fits even in old metal single electrical boxes (Note that a Pass & Seymour wall outlet with a built-in night-light, that I purchased recently, would NOT fit into the boxes in my home without shorting out). > Don't be freaked by the offer of "free Amazon Tech Support". The Maestro installed easily and worked the first time. If you've ever installed a wall receptacle or light switch, you can install the Maestro with no problems --- as long as you connect the fan to the fan controller circuit and the light to the light dimmer circuit > Easy setup and operation – easier than the instructions imply. Really, as simple, logical, and easy as it could possibly be. > The ability to preset light and fan levels (and easily change/override the presets at any time), and just tap on / tap off the light or fan is a very welcome feature. But it would be more welcome if the dimmer could dim standard dimmable LED bulbs to actually "dim" levels. > In some circumstances dimmable LED bulbs can flicker when used with "legacy" dimmers (that is, dimmers designed for use with incandescent bulbs). The Maestro theoretically eliminates such flicker. I never have a problem with flickering either with legacy dimmers nor the Maestro -- so, I cannot confirm nor deny any improvement with the Maestro. CONS > The Maestro on/off switch has very little tactile/auditory feedback, unlike the strong positive feedback of a wall switch, dial, or slider. This is exacerbated by a "ramp down" circuit for the light switch. That is, you have to wait for the delayed effect to know that you have actually succeeded in turning-off the light. Fortunately, it took me only about a week to get used to this -- now I don't notice, and have no problem -- albeit I sometimes inadvertently "double tap" when trying to turn off the light as I leave a room, which has no net effect (i.e., the light stays on). > The control panel was obviously designed to be visually "unobtrusive", but that also means that the on/off buttons have low visibility in low light (even though dimly lit with tiny green LEDs). The buttons are also nearly flush with the wall plate and therefore are hard to find or distinguish by touch in the dark) -- indeed, I installed a small clear "stick-on" furniture bumper on the light switch so that I can readily find it in the dark by touch. > Commendably, there is a list of dimmable LED lightbulbs which work with the Maestro dimmer on the Lutron website . Unfortunately, I could not find ANY bulbs on the list. Apparently, LED lightbulb manufacturers give new serial numbers to every batch of bulbs they manufacture -- or at least to every minor update and variation. So, it is still a crap shoot whether particular LED lightbulbs and dimmers are compatible. Fortunately, these days, most "dimmable" bulbs are probably compatible. NEUTRAL OBSERVATIONS > The MINIMUM light level the Maestro could provided with Sylvania 74691 or with Sylvania 72978 LED bulbs, (both the equivalent of 125 incandescent bulbs), or "Great Eagle 100W Equivalent" bulbs, was about the equivalent of a 40watt incandescent bulb. I had the same experience with a Lutron Credenza LED dimmer for my floor-lamp. Neither dimmer, with and of the three "dimmable LED" bulbs, dims to a truly low level. The dimming range is so limited that I virtually never use the dimming feature. Think of the "dimmer" as an on/off switch with the option of a very limited range preset light levels. Since the power usage of LED bulbs is so low at any level, there is very little incentive to dim the bulbs to save energy. Unfortunately, with the Maestro and LED bulbs, dimming to a truly low restful level (such as to watch TV, or listen to music, or for "romantic time") is impossible. > With a manual slide or dial controller, the fan motor starts at high, and lowers to the desired level (which is the way electrical motors should be started for maximum life – particularly if you allow a second or two for the fan to get up to speed before lowering it). With the Maestro fan speed switch set to a moderate level, my fan comes up to speed slowly, but doesn't make "straining" noises doing so, and the fan doesn't make buzzing noises at any power level. So the Maestro is more convenient, and perhaps "better", for ceiling fans than dial or slider controllers. The fan speed control of the Maestro offers a full range of speeds -- i.e., the minimum speed really is very slow. > The Maestro will work with incandescent (and halogen, etc) bulbs, and can dim them to truly low illumination levels. INSTALLATION SUGGESTIONS > Follow the printed instructions that come with the dimmer. > The circuits for the light and the fan are different. You MUST use the light dimmer circuit for the light, and the fan controller circuit for the fan. I strongly suspect that most of the 1 star reviews are from knuckleheads who didn't bother to read the instructions and wired the fan to the light dimmer circuit and visa-versa. It would help if Lutron labeled the wires (as they used to) -- but that would probably violate Amzn's insistence on "international packaging". > If you are replacing an existing dimmer, mark the wires for the fan and the light BEFORE you disconnect them from the old dimmer (on mine, both the fan and light wires [in my wall] were red). The fan and light wires on the Maestro are different colors (red and yellow), but are otherwise unidentified – so it is a very good idea to mark them also. I use a 2"-length of 1"-wide white masking tape, folded around the wire to make a label. Using a Sharpie, mark "F" for fan and "L" for light. If in doubt, take a photo with your cell phone of the exiting dimmer with the wires attached (before you attempt to remove the old dimmer). > Do NOT assume that your electrician has used the same color scheme as Lutron. If you aren't sure which wire is for the fan and which is for the light, disconnect ONE of them, and test -- then LABEL. > The hot terminal (for the black wire) on the Maestro is NOT supplied with a wire. It is on the side of the fixture. It is a bit recessed, and PROBABLY will not short out even a skinny metal box, but I would cover any exposed section of the hot wire and the terminal screw with electrical tape anyway. > Even though accessory wall plates for the Maestro are sold, any standard white “decora” wall plate will work just fine. My old white wall plate was a perfect match. You need a "white" plate, not a "cream" plate. > There is a green ground wire, which you should connect if your house wiring has grounding wires (particularly if your house has plastic electrical boxes and conduits). If you have metal boxes and conduits, your fixtures are PROBABLY adequately grounded without using grounding wires. The Maestro will operate without the green ground wire connected. But, if you've got a grounding wire, use it. > What if you don't have a separate wire for the fan light? -- well, you are out of luck -- the Maestro will NOT be able to control the fan light. Initially, I didn't have a separate wire for my fans, so I purchased fans with wireless controllers. But, over a span of several years, all the receiver units in all of my fans died -- and I could not buy replacement receivers. So, I had an electrician pull an extra wire to each circuit for the fan lights. If you have dead wireless receivers in your fans, it is probably NOT necessary to de-install or bypass the receivers. If you do need to remove the receivers, doing so is usually very easy since they are usually simple add-ons to the base model of the fan. SUGGESTIONS > Note that you can safely use 125W equivalent (or brighter) LED bulbs, even on fixtures designed for a maximum 40W or 60W incandescent bulbs (because of the low load and little heat generated by LEDs). Indeed, for me, the brighter bulbs are actually the main reason to upgrade to LEDs. > If dimmable LED bulbs work well for you (with no or rare flickering) in your old "legacy" dimmers, then there may NOT be a significant advantage to "upgrade" older installations to the Maestro or other LED dimmers. Whether used with "legacy" or LED dimmers, the minimum brightness an LED bulb can deliver is about 30% of the maximum brightness. It is more annoying trying to find the absolute minimum brightness with a slide or dial dimmer -- but when you finally give up on trying to find that "magic" minimum point, it ceases to be an annoyance. I have 6 ceiling fans with lights in my home -- I "upgraded" one of them to a Maestro, and am glad that I did -- but (even though I use LED bulbs in the light fixtures) I haven't bothered to "upgrade" the other 5, because the "improvement" I have experienced is minimal. > If you have a problem with LED bulbs flickering when used with "legacy" "incandescent" dimmers, that is a powerline issue, caused by slight variations in the AC coming into your home (and is just a feature of your local electrical service that you can't do anything about). A Maestro dimmer MAY, or may NOT, improve that problem. > In my experience the Maestro definitely eliminates the buzzing and other noises ceiling fans can make with standard controllers. > ABOUT NOISY FANS (having nothing to do with the Maestro or other fan controllers) -- Sometimes ceiling fans need oil. If you have a legacy (cast iron) Hunter, there is a filling hole for oil (Google it for instructions), otherwise it is difficult to get oil to the shaft. For fans without oil filling holes -- The fan shaft is accessible just below fan blades, just above the light fixture. I tape a Q-Tip to a 12" bamboo skewer, apply household or automotive oil (10W or 10W30, etc) to the Q-Tip, and apply the Q-Tip to the shaft and bearing. Then run the fan on low for, say, 5 minutes for the oil to be drawn upward into the bearing surface. --- I have an 50-year old cast iron Hunter in which became hard to start because the oil had condensed to thick tar-like material. I found that it was impossible to sufficiently disassemble the fan to clean out the thickened oil. If I were to do it again, I'd try to dissolve the thickened oil, perhaps with kerosene (soaking for a week or so), or at least pour out as much of the thickened oil as possible (by setting the fan on its side for several days), and then dilute with the lightest oil I could find, say 5W or 10W. I anycase, if replacing the oil in a Hunter fan, always use a high quality synthetic oil which is less likely to gum-up. ... show more

    • Nice switch to replacement broken one, some Pros and few Cons.
Size: 1 Pack
Overall this light switch worked as intend as I broke the last one I had. To sum up below, to works as intended and the cons I do have, have solutions for them, just not the way I thought they would so cons for me but maybe not others. Pros: - Simple On/Off for light and fan individually. - Fit standard outlet box (a little tight). - Instructions were fine/simple. - Fit underneath standard rectangle plate cover (so didnt have to purchase a new one) - Love how the buttons take priority and the adjustments are small off to the side. I mainly turn on and off the lights or fans (only adjust it seldomly). - The light setting has like 10 different levels which for some could be nice. - Can press and hold to "rapidly" increase light through all the settings. Cons: - The lights on the panel shine through other holes (only a problem when it is "off") so it is kinda hard to tell what the current setting it is on. Is it half way or 1/4 the way? *BUT* When it is "on", the light current setting will light up alot brighter. So like I said only a real problem if its "off". - (Might be my fault) When setting the lowest level of light, I went REALLY low so now "max level" is like a little dimmer than before. I need to redo the setting, but not a priority as the light still shines. So test out a couple settings before hand. - The push buttons for the levels just seem..cheap? annoying? Idk, but since I only adjust the level once in a blue moon its defintely not that big of a deal to me. If you use it all the time might want to go with something that was built more for constant adjusting instead of adjusting every now and again. So for its purpose not a true "con" for me, but a con just in the way it feels. - Not wireless/wifi/app controlled ... show more

    • Fan Doesn't Work Without A Light

Review Image by Sean Morgan Sean Morgan
I really like these switches. I have used them before but I recently just learned something new to me. Maybe this is well known among electricians but I am a DIYer and learn as I go. I am installing 3 ceiling fans on my patio and bought 3 of these switches to control each fan separately. When I got to the second fan I found that the switches weren't working. I had 120vac all the time and when I had the fan connected it dropped to 55vac. I could not find any help in the instructions or troubleshooting guides online. So I returned the 2 "bad" switches and bought 2 more only to find the same problem once again. After playing around with it for 30 min or so. I figured out that you can run lights only but you cannot run fan alone without lights, or some device that runs on ac power. As soon as I installed a light fixture, the fan started to work properly. I couldn't find any help online with this. Hopefully someone will find this helpful in the future. (The far left switch in my picture is just a mockup, its not wired yet) ... show more
