Overview
Not a dimmer, this Maestro digital switch turns lights and fans on and off with a rocker touch. It suits hallways, stairways and rooms with several switch locations.
The Maestro look blends with trim and furnishings, and the same switch handles lighting and fan loads up to their listed limits. Coordinating wall plates are a separate purchase.
Who it's for
A homeowner updating switches in hallways or stairways, who wants the Maestro look, will find the load limits clear. Anyone who needs dimming or app control should pick a different Lutron model.
Pros and cons
- Handles lights and fans
- Single pole or multi location
- Digital touch rocker
- Instructions and connectors included
- Wall plate sold separately
- Circuit type listed two ways
Performance notes
A digital switch uses electronic switching rather than a mechanical rocker alone, and load ratings differ for lights and fans. Multi location use pairs it with a compatible companion control in the same circuit.
