## Description

Whether you're working at a coffee shop or vacationing in the Caribbean, this smart light switch lets you remotely control your lighting using your phone or tablet from anywhere with no subscription or hub. Using the free Wemo app, you can schedule your lamps to turn off at sunrise, or synchronize your lights with the sunset so you never arrive to a dark room. When set to "Away Mode," it can turn your plugged-in lights on and off randomly to make it appear like you're home for extra security. Pair this dimmer with desertcart Alexa or Google Assistant built-in devices like Google Home to dim your lights with just the power of your voice. When paired with Nest's Thermostat, Nest's "home" and "away" modes can sync with your switch for automatic control. Nest can tell it when you're home or away so your lights can greet you when you arrive, and switch off when you're away to conserve energy.

Review: Satisfied Customer - WeMo Switch Installation I live in a dark rural area and prefer to keep my home well illuminated after dark. For the past 31 years my daily routine has been to turn the outside lights on at sunset and off again at sunrise. Sounds easy except there's one switch on the main floor, two in the basement and one in my garage. One of these switches is for two outdoor outlets that I use for floods lights and holiday lighting. On occasion I would get up later than usual, miss one or two switches because of a distraction or just wasn't at home. It was time to start thinking about the home automation concept. After extensive research I chose Belkin WeMo because of the favorable reviews on desertcart and my own favorable experiences with other Belkin products. The wired switches are designed for the DIY types like me. I had my first light switch wired and functioning in about 20 minutes. The second one in 15 minutes. I was so satisfied with the concept and functionality and the ease of installation until I wanted more so I bought two more light switches and two outlet switches for a grand-total of 6 WeMo devices. Now I can control all my outdoor lighting, with set on and off times, including a couple of indoor lamps and my garage electric heater with my iPhone and iPad from anywhere at anytime. The WeMo App takes a bit of learning and I've had a few mysterious on and off occurrences that have disappeared at the moment. I also should add that a few years ago I upgraded my router from the standard free one provided by my IP provider to a more reliable and secure one that I purchased myself. I mentioned that because there are so many factors that could result in problems unrelated to the switches or the app. Otherwise, a good router, a good mobile device with good reception and the elimination of as much interference as possible should result in none to fewer problems. Think quality! I'm glad I did because I currently have about 20 WiFi devices in by home hogging up my router. Personal Idea: Stuffing your light switch with wires in a single or double gang outlet box can be somewhat difficult, more so if your circuit is wired with 12/2 and double ganged. To cut down on my own stress and frustration I decided to used a non-metallic surface mount outlet box commonly used for surface wiring. Perhaps also by surface mounting interference will be minimal or could be virtually eliminated remembering that no metal face plates are allowed. The box comes with a plate with a knockout rectangular center. You attach the plate to the existing holes of your in-the-wall gang box. You'll see the holes after you remove your old light switch. Snap the 1 3/4 - 2" deep cover on the plate and you're ready start wiring and stuffing with less hassle. The holes in the cover lineup perfectly with the WeMo Light switch. The finished job gives your switch a bit of a commercial look but I don't care about that because I like the fact that it makes it standout giving it a questionable look like ask before touching. Less play from curiosity seekers. Also the plastic boxes are rather cheap from most home supply places and probably desertcart too.
Review: Worked well for ~2 months - I bought 4 of these light switches about a month after they were released. I had been adding motion detector lights, dusk-to-dawn lights, etc., to both improve energy efficiency and safety in my house. My purchase was designed to move further toward both of these issues, along with a new Kwikset lock and some security cameras. Installation was relatively simple, even for someone who is not an electrician. As long as you have the proper wires and follow instructions, as other reviewers have mentioned, installation should not be too difficult (check before ordering though). Connecting to the WiFi was also not difficult for me. I have a Linksys router in the basement with a Linksys range extender upstairs and WeMo did not have any problems connecting when I followed instructions. The initial firmware update took quite a long time and the initial iPhone app version that I downloaded was *very* slow to detect the switches each time I loaded the app, but they seem to have fixed the latter issue. Once it was all setup, I LOVED it. I used IFTTT to automatically make sure lights were turned off at night and on in the morning, among other things. I really like the look of them and changed out many of my fan switches and other switches to the decorator-style to make it look even nicer. Really, really like the look of them, although I could see it not fitting as well in certain instances (I am definitely not an interior decorator). I do wish that these would work with 3-way lights (where you have two light switches that control the same light) or as dimmers, but unfortunately they don't. Here's the problem: two days ago, the power to the router went out for about 30 seconds, then turned back on. The internet and WiFi loaded fine and all of my devices worked fine - except two of the 4 light switches could no longer connect to WiFi! They would both just blink orange non-stop. I tried all of their support instructions on their website, which was minimal, and included resetting and restarting the device. Of course, now one of the switches started blinking green and I could no longer even turn the lights on manually. So I caved and called their support number (difficult to find, but calling the corporate headquarters 800-number routed me to support). Here is where it got really frustrating because, among other things, the person on the line spoke very poor English. It took about 35 minutes to get through the initial questions around model number, what lights were blinking, when I purchased the product, etc. In between each question, she would tell me to "hold on a second" and mute her line, before often (at least 10 times, no exaggeration) returning and asking me a question I had already answered. Multiple times, she forgot to mute her line and I heard her joking with her friends. But, OK, I only hold Belkin partially accountable for that. After over an hour, and having me try everything I already tried, she finally said she would send me a new one. For now, I have two switches that cannot connect to WiFi and one that cannot even turn the lights on. It is simply not worth all of this hassle just to be able to remotely turn some lights on and off. To make it worse: they only provide (poor) customer service for free for 90 days! After that, you have to pay to talk to someone. Luckily (unluckily?), mine broke after 60 days so I could get someone on the phone. I really wanted to like the product, and I would have if there was some quality control or better customer support, but unfortunately for me it didn't work out.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can this switch dim lights**
A: Posting an updated response to this inquiry that is true as of today. The Wemo Light Switch is just a normal switch and it doesn't have a dimming feature. Please consider our new Wemo Dimmer (F7C509) which will calibrate to work with your specific type of bulb – from LEDs and CFLs to incandescent bulbs. No matter what type of bulb you’re using, you’ll enjoy the maximum amount of dimming range with no flickering.

**Q: Have a kitchen light that is controlled by 3 switches in diff. loc.will this switch work if I use it to replace one of the switch loc & leave 2 others**
A: Hi, Don. The WEMO Light Switch will only work on a single pole light switch. The device is not compatible with lights controlled by more than one (1) switch. To know more about the electrical installation requirements, you may visit this link: http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?articleNum=8206Should you need technical assistance with a WEMO product, you may contact us anytime at WEMOcares@belkin.com.

**Q: I have a panel with two toggle switches on it (U.S.) I would like to replace one of these with the WeMo light switch, would that be possible?**
A: I have 2 toggles in one panel also. One was a dimmer switch, the other was regular. I had to replace the dimmer with the regular to get the wemo to fit, because of the widths of the dimmer and wemo

**Q: Can the switch control a ceiling fan?**
A: Yes, it can control a ceiling fan. Any analog appliance that meets the requirement of this switch. It requires Max 600W Incandescent or 1800W Resistive at 120VAC.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought one and like it so much I kept buying more.
*by A***N on September 26, 2016*

This light switch and the other outlet style plug has worked reliably for over 3 years. There would be occasional hiccups like power interruptions that cause the switches to restart, but they have never failed on me. However, you are at the mercy of your internet connection and if you happen to be away while the network crashes, you won't be able to communicate with the switches. The daily programs will continue to work regardless. Setting this up properly does require some networking knowledge and how to properly implement security. The switches both work on hidden and broadcasted SSID Wifi networks. Half of my switches work on the hidden SSID and the other half are connected to the broadcasted SSID. They do support security password keys, but if you want an extra layer of protection, turn on your router/basestation's MAC address control to enable only recognized and authorized devices access to your wireless network. I have assigned static IP address to these switches by way of their MAC addresses, to avoid IP conflict when power cycling happens to my router. This is the general rule for all of my stay-at-home devices. Update 2017 My eleventh switch will be arriving tomorrow. The first switch I bought in 2013 is still working to this day. All switches are still working reliably. Works perfectly with NEST thermostat, Amazon Echo and IFTTT. Update Dec 2017 1. The WEMO App first lets you name each switch and then allows you to set up "Rules" for unattended on/off times to a switch or a group of switches. So that a switch or a group of switches will turn on/off at a scheduled time. 2. The Amazon Alexa App allows you to first create intelligent named "Groups" of switches, such as "Exterior Lights", "Interior Lights", "Living Room Lights", so you can use voice control to address them in a meaningful way. "Alexa, turn off Living Room Lights" or "Alexa, turn off All Lights." 3. IFTTT will integrate all the functionality of your smart devices with WEMO and ALEXA (NEST and others too). i.e. The GPS in a smart phone can be used to create an invisible fence that can turn WEMO switches on/off as you pass in/out of its perimeter. My living room lights and exterior lights come on when I'm about half a mile from home. NEST can also sense I'm coming home and start cooling/heating the house. The are thousands of "recipes" ready to use. With these three Apps together, there are thousands of possibilities to automate your home if you are willing to experiment. These are just some of the ways I use mine. Update March 2018 1. Recently purchased the Wemo Mini Smart Plug to make the uplights in the kitchen cabinets smart. Set up was easy but I first had to add the switch's MAC address to my basestation before connecting to one of my home's SSIDs. 2. That makes twelve switches and all are active and functioning as you can see. 3. The Wemo App is very laggy, but luckily with voice activation, I rarely launch the app except to take screenshots. I use Alexa's voice recognition instead. The Mac version of the app needs to support higher resolution displays like the Android one does.
