Question

Using Lithona wafer lights (wf4 model). Tried Inovelli dimmer with no luck unfortunately, it was like a disco. Switched to a GE motion dimmer in the laundry room and it's smooth as silk. I don't need motion dimmers in the living room, had anyone tried GE 46203 (ordered one this morning) or 12494s with Lithona brand wafers? Have 4 locations with 2, 3, 6, and 9 lights going in today. Thanks ST friends.  

Answer 1

I use these GE 2ND GEN dimmers. Awesome and a great deal for a 2pk  https://amzn.to/2RwCT10

Answer 2

With Lithonia wafers? I ordered 1 for now to try. One of the locations is 3way, does that model with with an add-on if needed? If so, and the one works, I'll order a 2 pack and an add on later once confirmed.  

Answer 3

Straight from Lithonia's mouth.  

Answer 4

I have some older Levitons actually, I think regular z-wave VPE06s but I am going off memory. Either way what I have does not match up to the chart, and also I dont see any GEs in their list. Sure hope I didnt cut 20 of these in and have my electrician wire them up and they dont work. I would hate to have to go back to dumb switches here.  

Answer 5

You can use the Lutron Caseta dimmer switches listed (the WF4 Wafer spec sheet specifically listed Caseta Wireless PD-6WCL) - you will probably have to buy the Lutron bridge.  

Answer 6

Who wants to do that I'm trying to get away from additional hardware and logins lol. would prefer to stay native. Don't really want to buy a bridge. I'll have to test out the GE and see how it does.  

Answer 7

Installed the GE. It's not as smooth as the GE motion sensor with 3 lights (same brand and model WF4) but it's decent. Flickering is minimal and occurs at 2 spots, low 20% and 80% give or take. I then tried the old Leviton and it's alot smoother but just doesn't find quite as much. Maybe I just stick with Levitons. I could try Zooz, didn't have alot of luck with Inovelli. Kinda upset I didn't look into comparability but the lights are installed for the most part so it is what it is.
