WiZ Portable Smart Button - Works Only with WiZ Smart Lights - Comes with 2 AAA Alkaline Batteries - Wireless Light Switch - Control with Wiz Connected App - 1 Pack

The media could not be loaded. Quick review:This button does exactly what you hope it would do. It's easy to install via the 3M sticky tape on the back of the wall mount, so no need for drilling or holes! Programming it in the Wiz app (v2) was straight forward and took less than 2 minutes. A bit of technical knowledge is useful when programing, but if you're adding physical buttons to your smart home, you [probably] already know that. It also functions as a dimmer switch, as well as full-on, full-off single button presses.You can link this button to a single lightbulb, rooms, or even multiple rooms full of lights. It's nice that you can remove the button from the wall mount and use it as a mobile remote. Just place it back in the mount when you're done and the magnets will hold it in place until the next time you need it.Longer Review:If you're like me, you love the concept of smart home automation. And if you're even more like me, you refuse to pay Philips Hue pricing for lightbulbs and peripherals. This lead me to buying multiple Amazon deals and sale items over the years, which meant I had to have 3-4 different apps on my phone to run them all. Yes, these apps can all be managed in groups by Alexa, Google Home, etc., but the fact is, there was no overall device that can send a lighting cue to multiple different brands of lights via Google or Alexa (that I found, anyways). It's also a drag when people who are visiting, and perhaps a bit less tech savvy, want to turn lights on and off with no physical switch in the room. It's unreasonable to expect my 65 year old father-in-law to bust out his phone, which he barely uses, to open an app and fumble around looking for the proper lighting groups in the house.That's where Wiz has changed the game. They sell plenty of different lighting and outlet options that all link to a single app (a very well designed, user-friendly app, might I add), that you then link to your Smart Home service of choice. They are affordably priced and the build quality seems on par with what you'd expect. The colors of the lights are accurate enough, although not as rich as Hue lights. But I can buy 8 Wiz bulbs for the price of 3 Hue bulbs, so I can live with that.We have since converted nearly all of our smart bulbs throughout the house over to Wiz and it's been a dream. We use this particular wireless button to control 4 bulbs in our living room (see the video review), and some of their wireless remotes throughout other rooms in the house to control different sections as needed. I was initially shocked at how simple these were to pair and setup via the Wiz V2 app. As mentioned before, programming and setting these up isn't for everybody, but chances are you will find their instructions easy enough to follow along.It runs off of 2 AAA batteries, which I haven't had to change yet (purchased this about 3 months ago). And stays connected to my wifi with 0 issues.If it has any weaknesses at all, I would say that the magnets in the button and wall mount could be a tad bit stronger. I have knocked it out of it's mount by mistake, but that falls under "user error", in my opinion. Under general use with proper care, this switch should last a long time.All in all, my family and guests have been very happy to have a physical button to press when they need lighting control, and I would recommend to anyone who's invested in the Wiz line of smart bulbs in their home or business.

I was having an issue with the "off" button only dimming and not shutting off the lights completely. This was corrected when I adjusted the default "fade in and fade out" settings in the app to zero. The other issue I was having was the off button was not giving me good physical feedback, like it wasn't depressing properly. I took the batteries out and adjusted it and that fixed that issue. Because of those two details, I had to knock off a star. But now that they're working perfectly, I am really happy to have such a cheap way to have two light switches in a walk-through room without the expense of having to have it wired. I would absolutely buy this again.

I installed this to control some Wiz lights I put into an overhead fan in my office. I used a 3M Command Strip instead of the sticky pad to mount to my wall, as I was afraid it would damage the paint if I wanted to move it. Beyond that, it synced right up and does exactly what it should. It's not customizable beyond which room lights it controls, so don't expect anything more than on/off and you should be happy. I can now more easily make use of my fan lights and don't have to fumble around with my phone or tablet anymore.

I installed the wall dimmer switch after purchasing LED Halo brand can light inserts with Wiz technology. After installation, I realized that in order to get the can lights to dim with something other than an app (so my kids could use it without a phone), I'd need a smart switch on the wall.So I turned to Wiz since I figured it would work best if I kept the manufacturers the same, and purchased this wall dimmer switch.Installation was straight forward, although the unit is rather bulky and trying to get it to fit in an outlet box can be problematic if you have a bunch of additional wires to jam in there with the box.Unfortunately the dimming function from the switch didn't control the lights. I could control the dimming on the app, and the app reflected the fact that I was moving the dimming on the switch itself, but the brightness of the lights weren't changing.So I got on the app and did started a real time chat with customer service. This experience was miserable. I clearly explained what the problem was, and even took pictures of the lights, screen shots of the app, and a short video with narration of the problem. The only thing the tech support person on the chat could do was get into my account and tell me what percentage the lights were dimmed to, in near real time. This person clearly didn't understand the problem I conveyed to them, even after sharing video, pictures and screen shots. It was clear this was a waste of time, after I'd already spent an hour searching the web for troubleshooting help.Gone are the days where you can wire up a switch in a few minutes and be done with a job. Gone are the days when you can wire up a smart switch product and expect it to work without taking a ton of time trying to figure out how to make it work or troubleshoot it.Stay away from Wiz.

The bedrooms in my house each have two sconces with turn switches on the fixtures to turn them on an off which was a pain when you quickly trying to turn off the lights or turn them on in a dark room. This was the perfect solution to turn them on and off at the same time from the wall when you enter. I love how it can control multiple lights from one remote and how they are capable of diming. I put one on the wall next to the bedroom door and another next to my children's bed where they can turn the light on and off as they need to. Highly recommend.
