I'm trying to use smart switches to cleanup/reduce the number of switches on the walls in places. For example the house is an open floorplan and has a door to the patio where the great and dining room meet. The outdoor lighting has 4 switches that make sense at that location. The dining room has 2. The great room has 3. I don't want 9 switches there. Can I use a RA2 select to help?
I saw that for 220 systems there were inline units for switched, dimmable, and dimmable 10v. The 110 doesn't get the same love and the line dimmable is absent. Could I use a LMJ-16R-DV-B at the first junction box that a group of lights is on that don't need to be dimmable? If so can I skip a remote and use less frequent lights only through an App? If I could do that I was leaning toward installing a Brilliant that interfaces with Lutron through smart things to control everything through a single switch. I've also thought about a scene remote or 2 to mount there that could basically give me on/off and 6 common settings.
Lastly if I can't do an inline switch I'm considering having all the physical switches for outdoors in a media closet, the great room physical switches at the other entrance, and just run the brilliant by the door.
I have been trying to figure all this out but have been struggling with how to make the system function the way I want without excessive switches. It is a smaller town and the electrician was unfamiliar with smart switches.
