Zooz 800 Series Z-Wave Long Range Dimmer Switch for Smart Homes

The Zooz 800 Series Z-Wave Long Range Dimmer Switch is a game-changer for smart home enthusiasts. This innovative dimmer switch allows you to control your lights effortlessly, whether from the switch itself or through your hub's app. For optimal performance, it is recommended to use quality dimmable bulbs, steering clear of big-box store brands. Please note that a hub is required for operation, which is sold separately, and voice control is only available when using a compatible Z-Wave hub.

One of the standout features of this dimmer is its new 800 Series Z-Wave Long Range technology. This advancement enhances your network by providing greater range and faster signal speeds than previous models. To take full advantage of this feature, ensure your hub or smart home software supports Long Range communication. Each dimmer acts as a signal extender within your traditional mesh network, improving connectivity throughout your home. If you encounter any connectivity issues, the built-in range test tool allows for easy troubleshooting directly from the switch.

Installation is a breeze with the Direct 3-Way capability of this dimmer switch. You can wire it just like the Zooz ZEN22 model, using existing on/off switches without the need for add-on switches. Be sure to follow the wiring diagram provided in the manual carefully, as it is essential for proper functionality. This dimmer also works excellently as a single pole dimmer, but do check that a neutral wire is available in your electrical boxes before making a purchase.

Designed with convenience in mind, the better fit of the new model is just 1.16 inches deep, making it easier to install in shallow or crowded electrical boxes. There are no heat sink tabs to worry about, allowing you to place it next to other switches in a multi-gang box seamlessly. If you desire a different color paddle, Zooz offers options in light almond, brown, or black, although these are sold separately.

This dimmer switch is packed with features, including the ability to double tap to go from off to full brightness, or single tap to return to the last brightness level. The dimmer is fully programmable if your hub supports advanced settings. You can even disable the relay to use the dimmer as a remote control for your smart bulbs, with multi-tap triggers available for scene control if your hub allows it.

Security is a top priority with the latest security features integrated into this dimmer switch. It comes equipped with the new S2 authenticated security protocol and SmartStart for instant and safe pairing. Additionally, it is Z-Wave Plus and ETL certified, ensuring compliance with communication and safety standards. Enjoy peace of mind with lifetime tech support and an extended 5-year warranty upon registering your device.
