Decora Digital Dimmer & Timer vs Switchmate Home

The smart way to control lights! Switch on/off, control dimming and set the internal timer all with your Bluetooth connectivity. Now it’s easier than ever to manage dimming for precise light level every time. The on screen dimming bar gives you smooth, fingertip control for full range dimming with adjustable fade rates. You can also select energy saving mode and set minimum light levels for added convenience. Timed Events with Ease Schedule your lights to turn ON and OFF automatically for safety and convenience so you never come home to a dark house again. This app offers the flexibility to program daily timed events for weekdays, weekends or any day - even while you are away - giving your home a “lived-in” look for added security and peace of mind. For carefree living, the Decora® Dimmer and Timer features an astronomical clock that uses your mobile device’s location service to define the dimmer’s longitude and latitude. This enables the handy “on at sunset and off at sunrise” feature to automatically adjust daily to your local time so lights are always in sync with nature. The Decora Bluetooth Dimmer and Timer is designed to work with your choice of compatible dimmable CFLs, dimmable LEDs, incandescent or halogen bulbs.
