GE Z-Wave Plug-In Smart Switch

 

GE is one of the major companies in pursuit of quiet excellence, but unlike competitors' products like the iDevices Outdoor Switch , GE's Z-Wave Plug-In Outdoor Smart Switch requires that you already own a Z-Wave gateway. I chose to look at the...

For its price, this GE Smart Switch performs the basic functions admirably.

The physical design is clunky, you can't monitor energy consumption and, worse, it lacks a weather-resistant shell.

If you already own a Z-Wave gateway like Piper or SmartThings, this is a great switch to pick up. It performs well and it's a lot cheaper than others on the market.

GE Outdoor Switch review: It's a steal, but can't stand alone

 

This Switch is a great deal if you have a Z-Wave gateway, but otherwise it's useless.

For its price, this GE Smart Switch performs the basic functions admirably.
