Hi,
I have two separate switches controlling lights on the front and back of my porch (neither of which are currently three way switches and they are located by the front and back doors). Can I use two caseta switches in place of the two existing switches, and pair them to behave like three way switches? I would like both the front and back porch lights to turn on and off together when switched from either location. I do not need or want dimming. Thanks for any help.
Not exactly. The 2 caseta switches would not talk to each other. They will talk to Pico remotes. You could have a Pico remote at the front door that controls both switches. You could also have one at the back door. All would need to be within 30 feet of each other. You don't need a bridge unless you want app control or devices are more than 30 feet.
Thanks Randy!Quote:

You can create a Scene in HomeKit that will allow you to control multiple devices. You would need separate scenes for on and off. For my exterior lights, I use HomeKit to automate them so they automatically turn on at sunset and off at sunrise.Quote:
