Just get SmartThings and ZWAVE+ switchers, dimmers and outlets. #DoingItRight

Ok I was hoping to skip a hub like smartthings. I have one at home and it's been pretty good and love the lutron but it requires another hub on top of the smartthings. I am looking to be able to control the ceiling lights at my store and be able to turn off the lights at night. The lights are led tube lights.

First of all, SmartThings does an amazing job at integrating lutron, so you can add Lutron to SmartThings and add it to your SmartThings automations. Secondly, if you decide to get another switch, then maybe a third, then maybe a few sensors. would you want 5 more devices in your wifi or only 1 more (hub)?

@unclothe1851 Would you use the Lutron Casetta on non dimable LED tube ceiling lights?

@friar4338 I have Lutron Caseta on non-dimmable lights, yes. Obviously I use the non-dimmer switches

@unclothe1851 Is there a non dimmer version? Do you have a link to this?

@friar4338 yes there is. If you have a neutral wire, PD-6ANS If you do not have a neutral wire, PD-5WS
