I am just getting started with my system, just placed an order for a Vera3 and hope to begin replacing out my aging X-10 system. We recently moved into a smaller house, which is a good thing for me, less switches and outlets to convert over!
From what I read, these do okay at dimming LED modules, which we have throughout most of the house.
Just figured I would pass this deal along to anyone else looking to pickup these switches, and start my first actual post on the forums off with a deal ;D
Thanks for all of the help, there is a wealth of information on these forums!

I’m moving into a new (to me) house and have been struggling with affordable dimmers for LEDs/CFLs.
Great to find these with instant status instead of going with the Evolve switches for $20 more![/quote]
These are for incandescent lights based on Cooper’s website. But I do like the look of these, if I didn’t already have all the lights in my house running on the Intermatic CA600’s I would buy 20 of these.

[b]RF transmitter only, it does not control a load[/b]
Use it as a companion switch for N-Way circuits
Simply associate this switch with the switch controlling the actual load
Use this switch when you need dimming capability
Requirements
Note that this is an RF accessory switch and it needs to be associated with the primary switch controlling the load. This is done with either the HomeSeer software or a Cooper remote control.
Sorry buddy. Looks like you missed out too; the original item shows 0 available, 104 sold.

well thanks in that case… i will have to send a msg to them and ask them to cancel the sale… not sure if they will do that.
[quote=“EOppie, post:11, topic:175590”]Hey Exorcist, if you have any problems canceling the sale I am more than happy to take 3 of them.

I am sorry i saw your message late. But i requested the seller to cancel the sale, and he did, and did the refund. You can try to send him a message with ur offer. He will definately get back to you.
I emailed the seller today to find out the status of shipping on my item (I ordered 10 and paid instantly) and I get the response that they never shipped, and they are now out of them.
So if anyone ordered from the seller, and has decided they no longer want them…I’m in the market. :
And @Exorcist, thanks I did actually get three accessory switches from the seller after you cancelled. Of course, now I don’t have master switches to go with them.
I received the ca600 switched today, and I must say the build quality is really good. The switches came well packed. Automated outlet are good sellers I wished they did more cheaper zwave stuff. Anyways have a quick question here, the ca600 has four wires coming out. Red, black, green, blue. See pic below
The switches that I want to replace these with have two wires coming out. So which wires should I use in ca600 switch. Pls look at the wiring of my current switches.
Where does the yellow wire and the blue wire of my existing wiring go into the ca600? Yellow goes to red of ca600 and blue goes to black of ca600? Is it correct? If so can I cut off the other two wires from the ca600.
Pls note these switches will be used as a standalone dimmer not 3 way.
FYI You may want to start a new thread, as this is an entirely different switch than was originally being discussed.
Blue and yellow wires are used as hot wires. These wires are usually pulled in conduit. The blue wires are generally used for travelers in three-way and four-way switch applications. They also are used as switch legs to things like lights and fans. Yellow wires are generally used for switch legs. These control things like light, fans, and switched outlets.
You can tell what wires are doing what with a multimeter. Frankly, if you are uncomfortable with this level of wiring, you should consult a licensed electrician.
Woah!! Thanks for ur reply but That’s too much information, i just needed info relating to my wiring. Ok yea u r true I did not realize the topic of this thread is irrelevant to my request. I will open a thread. However I still don’t think I will need an electrician for this, previously I got lot of help from members on this forum to setup my leviton zwave dimmer and with the help of pics I posted they were able to relate the right connections.
They pair with the 9534-N but don’t carry a load themselves.
