I would hope now that iDevices' has introduced (yesterday at CES) an in-wall HomeKit compatible outlet (and Insteon already has one), that Lutron could please do the same!
Non-dim, manual on/off switch at the outlet.

This has been debated for years with RA/RA2/HW. I personally like the plug in feature as opposed to the outlet for the simple reason that you can find the device easily. Having replaced countless X10 systems, I can say trying to diagnose and repair devices that are hidden or not clearly marked is a nightmare.
I for one think boxes hanging off outlets is unsightly, but I can understand going either or both ways (plugin or in-wall).
You don't oppose in-wall light switches and dimmers though, right? Why the double standard?Quote:

I don't alway carry my phone with me around the house and the iDevices MUST be controlled via a homekit app. Network down, don't have your device, you're out of luck.Quote:
