Overview

  • Control this dimmer remotely from anywhere
  • Programmable on-level and fade on/off speed
  • Featuring dual-band INSTEON technology for the fastest and most reliable performance
  • Doubles as an Access Point

Essential Info

This high-tech yet easy to use dimmer takes your home into the future by giving you the ability to set the speed at which the light fades On and Off, a preset on-level for always remembering your favorite brightness level and best of all being able to remotely control the dimmer from a handheld remote, wall keypad, computer or mobile phone (controllers are sold separately). With high-end quality, at-a-glance LED status and remote controllability, you'll see how easy it is to create your own home of the future.

Similar to the best selling SwitchLinc Dimmer, this newest member of the SwitchLinc family has the ability to communicate using both the electrical wires in the home as well as using radio frequency (RF). This increases reliability not only for the dimmer but for all devices on an INSTEON home control network (similar to the function of an Access Point).

The SwitchLinc installs like a traditional wall switch with the exception of requiring connection to neutral. Most homes have a neutral wire available (see How to check if I have neutral wires?). Once installed setup is quick and easy using a simple Plug-n-Tap programming.

    Slim Design
    Similar dimmers are up to 50 percent deeper than the SwitchLinc Dimmer. Thanks to its slim design, it makes installation easy even in small junction boxes.

    Beautiful, High-Quality Construction
    Unlike other switches, the SwitchLinc Dimmer offers the natural feel of high-end dimmers. You'll love the crisp, tactile response with each touch instead of the mushy feeling of other brands. The SwitchLinc Dimmer is designed and manufactured to high-end specifications and goes through over 10 quality control tests before arriving at your doorstep. This modern Decora-style switch will blend with any room's design. Additional colors are available and sold separately. Choose the color that best suits your room's decor: Ivory, Light Almond, Almond, Black, Brown, or Gray. Don't forget to order a matching wallplates.

    Scene Lighting
    Scenes allow you to control multiple lights, rooms or even the whole home with a single command. Because the SwitchLinc Dimmer can be a member of more than 400 scenes (i.e. "Movie Time," "Party," "Romance," etc.), you'll be able to launch various lighting scenarios with a single button press. These are elegant features usually found only in systems costing tens of thousands of dollars and requiring extensive rewiring of your home. All member lights can ramp to your independently desired brightness levels at your chosen ramp rate(s). So one set of lights can dim slowly, while another set turns off instantly, all controlled with one command from one button. If you want to control multiple scenes from one controller, we recommend the INSTEON KeypadLinc Dimmer.

    Compatibility
    The SwitchLinc Dimmer is fully INSTEON compatible and X10 ready. Homeowners with existing X10 networks can easily migrate to an INSTEON network without having to discard all their existing X10 devices. X10 ready means that it can respond to an X10 power line command from an X10 controller. Please note that INSTEON devices repeat INSTEON signals but not X10.

    Non-Volatile Memory
    All SwitchLinc Dimmer settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are not lost during power failures. Additionally, in the event of a power loss, the SwitchLinc Dimmer will return to its last brightness level when power is restored.

    Note: As with all wall dimmers, the SwitchLinc may feel warm during operation. Rigorously tested and approved to UL-standards, the amount of heat generated falls well within approved limits and poses no threat to your home or the lifespan of the device.

    Certifications and Warranty
    All SwitchLinc products are safety approved. The factory for SmartLabs Design Products is ISO9001 certified. Because of this passion for quality, Smarthome stands behind the entire SwitchLinc line of products with a full 2-year warranty.

    DWIGHT -- west new york, NJ   5/6/2012
    Works well as a swtich and dimmer. Lighted face makes it look sleek and sophisticated. Have yet to try it as a responder - new home - No internet service yet.
    DONALD -- loudonville, OH   5/6/2012
    The dual-band devices are great for assuring reliability of RF-only items (plus, they avoid the necessity of separate access points).
    WALTER FLORES -- fort collins, CO   5/4/2012
    Very good product. The timing configuration is really funny. The only cons is the price, which I believe could be lower.
    TODD -- burbank, CA   5/4/2012
    It works! And it extended my range so other Insteon devices nearby work now.
    RICHARD -- kirkland, QC   5/3/2012
    Great product!
    VALERY -- woodinville, WA   5/3/2012
    Installed about 50 of them around the house. Am happy so far, but the time will tell more.
    STEVE -- san clemente, CA   4/25/2012
    odd color, Going to try to swap covers with bad switch to match cover plate
    JAMES -- philadelphia, PA   4/19/2012
    works like all the rest
    ALAN -- tustin, CA   4/12/2012
    Works great with incandescent lighting. It's too bad they don't make a dual-band+relay version of this for fluorescent/non-dimmable lights.
    STEVEN -- poway, CA   4/7/2012
    Awesome dimmers. You can set the turn on brightness, brightness ramp speed, and when linked with another Insteon dimmer you can link them so that the brighten and dim in sync. Great solution for two hallway lights at opposite ends of a long hallway and both on dimmers.
    RICARDO SOTO -- mexico city, Mexico   4/2/2012
    Simply the best tech for home, easy, affordable and functional
    TIM -- st.albert, AB   3/12/2012
    Easy set up. Quality switch. I have been using the smartlinc for a month now and it has been %100 reliable.
    BRANDON -- thornton, CO   3/8/2012
    Works great. Wiring was no more complicated than a typical "dumb" dimmer. It took a bit of trial and error to get it working in a three-way circuit with another SwitchLinc, but after about 30 minutes everything was working flawlessly. The LED's are a nice, tasteful touch and add to the high-end visual appeal of this unit.
    JOERG -- martinez, CA   3/4/2012
    Easy to program and integrate into existing scene lighting. Professional, high-tech look due to white LED bar. Doubles as an RF receiver, which adds additional capabilities to the entire INSTEON home network.
    FRANCK -- laval, QC   2/27/2012
    Really happy to buy from this company. fast shipping, good communication. product exactly as described. thank you
    DAVID -- lynnfield, MA   2/25/2012
    Work as expected.
    JEROME -- fort collins, CO   2/20/2012
    works perfectly
    MICHAEL -- mill valley, CA   2/20/2012
    Works as well as other INSTEON dimmers and helps extend system reliability
    BRIAN -- norwood, NC   2/18/2012
    Product works as described, sluggish response. The side plates on the box need to be plastic, not an extension of the ground circuit. Easily shortable to neighboring non insteon switches or outlets.
    CHRISTOPHER -- voorheesville, NY   2/14/2012
    I love these devices. As they say on them when you first install them, "Welcome to the Future". They are pretty costly, but if you have the budget they are worth it. They are designed very well so they fit easily into existing installations, and with their capabilities they are able to link with other devices and give you so much more than typical light switches. If you are familiar with installing light switches and outlets, then installing these will be easy. I would suggest taking a little time before buying your first one, to look into the Dual-Band and understand what that means. My first ones were not Dual-Band, and because of that the installation was a little more work to make sure they were all on the same phase. So, just understand what that means before you go with the cheaper ones, or the more advanced Dual-Band, and what the tradeoffs are. If you only plan on buying 1 or 2, then non-Dual Band is fine as long as you stick with one phase, if you are going larger, I would suggest getting the Dual-Band. Setup (after hardware installation) can take a little while, maybe 10 or 15 minutes to exactly understand how they link together, and exactly how they work, but after that it is well worth it. After that, using them is very intuitive, and if you start replacing them throughout the house, you will really enjoy the different features and get used to them.
