Thread: Simple On/Off for existing Florescent and under cabinet LEDs

    Simple On/Off for existing Florescent and under cabinet LEDs

    Hi Guys

    Relatively new to Lutron and RA2. Moved house recently and will be doing a lot of remodeling (including a lot of new electrical and lighting). It's gonna be a while before i'm ready to install new lights and dimmers. in the interim, I'd like to be able to control 3 existing rooms that have florescent and under cabinet LED lights that are currently controlled by regular manual light switches. Not looking for dimming/fading, just simple on/off from my iPhone and automation system. I seem to recall there being a relay switch for RA2, but can't find it. I'm probably don't have neutrals in most of these locations.

    Is there a simple 2-wire switch that will simply turn a load on and off for RA2?

    TIA

    Mark

    RRD-8S-DV-xx. When adding the device to the software select "Dual Voltage Switch." It has a minimum load of 40 w/va.

    If there is a neutral available in the box, you could use the RRD-8ANS-WH. Lower minimum wattage, less cost.

    Thanks. Haven't removed the diffusers yet (bit of a pain to do). All our 2 bulbs, so as long as they're 20W each or higher, I should be good right?

    This is a dimmer isn't it?

    RRD-8ANS-xx is the neutral wire switch which has a lower minimum wattage than the RRD-8S-DV-xx (no neutral wire switch).
