Lutron Cas\u00e9ta has added two new smart switches to its lineup. The switches are modeled on its existing non-smart \u201cDiva\u201d paddle switch style<\/a>, giving its distinctive smart switch line a more traditional look. Lutron Cas\u00e9ta is probably one of the most reliable DIY smart lighting<\/a> systems available today; it uses a proprietary protocol powered by Lutron\u2019s smart hub rather than Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. <\/p>\n
The new $69.95 Diva smart dimmer<\/a> is a wired paddle switch with a toggle slider for dimming, and the $59.95 Claro smart switch<\/a> is a standard wired on-off switch. Both products look like traditional paddle switches, and other than a small LED light, there\u2019s nothing to single them out as \u201csmart.\u201d As with the existing Caseta smart dimmer<\/a>, the new Diva smart dimmer won\u2019t need a neutral wire. (Though the Claro switch will.)<\/p>\n
The switches are available today, September 12th, at The Home Depot. Lutron is also selling a Diva Smart Starter Kit for $119.95, which includes the dimmer, a Lutron Smart Hub, a wireless Pico remote, and a matching faceplate.<\/p>\n

    The Lutron Cas\u00e9ta Diva smart dimmer is modeled on the traditional paddle dimmer Lutron has sold for many years.<\/em><\/figcaption>Image: Lutron<\/cite><\/p>\n    <\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\nA new old look<\/h2>\nThe look of the new devices is more in line with what most of Lutron\u2019s competitors are doing in this space; Eve<\/a> and Leviton<\/a> recently launched new switches that stick with a more traditional look. <\/p>\n
\nBoth switches will work with wired three-way and multi-location switches<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nLutron says the reason for the new design is to fit better into most homes, where paddle switches are common. \u201cSome folks find the existing Cas\u00e9ta aesthetic too contrasting to their existing switches,\u201d Adam Mack, Cas\u00e9ta product manager, told The Verge<\/em>. \u201cWe wanted to give homeowners another option.\u201d Mack says Lutron is not discontinuing its existing Cas\u00e9ta style, however, and will continue to develop it.<\/p>\n
The current Cas\u00e9ta design has distinctive icons on the switches and multiple buttons, plus a press and hold function that can confuse people unfamiliar with them. The Diva dimmer uses the more traditional paddle design for on-off, plus you can press and hold the paddle to slowly dim to off or use the slider for precise dimming. An LED light bar shows the dimming level, and there\u2019s a preset function to return the light to where it was previously.<\/p>\n\n  <\/p>\n    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Most noteworthy, however, is that both new switches will work with wired three-way and multi-location switches, something existing Cas\u00e9ta switches don\u2019t do unless you add a wireless Pico remote. This means you can replace one wired switch with a Diva smart dimmer or Claro smart switch, and the existing mechanical switch (or switches) will continue to work as expected. (There is some extra wiring required.) <\/p>\n
Lutron is also launching an accessory switch later this year for new installs, which will work like a mechanical switch but come with special wiring. It also won\u2019t count as a device on the Lutron system (which has a maximum of 74 devices). Up to 10 accessory switches can be paired with one Cas\u00e9ta smart switch. <\/p>\nThe Diva and Claro work with all existing Cas\u00e9ta products \u2014 including the Lutron Pico remote<\/a> to add a second wireless switch or remote control \u2014 and the Claro will also work for on-off control of ceiling fans. The switches come in six colors, including white, ivory, and black. <\/p>\n
The new switches require the $80 Lutron Smart Hub<\/a> to add connected features such as scenes and schedules using the Lutron app as well as to connect to other smart home platforms, such as Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home. <\/p>\n
Lutron is involved with Matter<\/a>, the new smart home standard, but has not announced how or when it will support it. \u201cToday, we support all the major systems that Matter is going to integrate with, and we continue to be committed to supporting those platforms,\u201d said Mack. Its proprietary Clear Connect protocol<\/a> is a low-power, long-range protocol similar to Thread<\/a> \u2014 one of the main protocols of Matter. It seems unlikely Lutron would abandon that in favor of a different technology at this stage, especially as its products already work with most smart home platforms.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
