Lutron Maestro Motion Sensor Switch | No Neutral Required, 150W LED, Single Pole | MS-OPS2-WH, White

As advertised it does not require a neutral third wire; only requires a ground connection. It’s programmable with 2 buttons that you press and hold for different motion settings. Installation took me less than 5 minutes. I had trouble programming it, so I called LUTRON and they answered quick and gave me excellent clear instructions. Set includes the switch and wiring hardware, but does not include a switch plate (the part that screws on the front of the switch to cover it). You will have to use your existing rocker switch plate. Toggle switch plates will not work, so if you’re replacing an old-school toggle switch with this motion sensing kit, go to your hardware store and grab a rocker switch plate first. Overall works perfectly! Would definitely recommend

I have the 250w single pole (MS-OPS2-WH) and the 600w 3-way (MS-OPS5M-WH), so this review is for both. I've had these for about a month and I am very happy with them. I put one in an entry way and it is very convenient when walking in at night. I put the other one in a laundry room and that works well when carrying the laundry in. I'm no electrician, but they were easy for me to install. Just follow the instructions and be sure you understand everything you're doing. If you don't understand, watch more youtube videos or hire an electrician. I bought a non-contact voltage tester (fluke brand) to be sure that there was no current in any of the lines while I was working on them. You will also probably need a new switch plate. These do require a ground wire, so check that you have one in the switch box before buying. This is usually a bare copper wire. If you don't have one, this switch may not be worth the hassle of getting one put in. I have them set to auto on and auto off after 1 minute. They always come on right when I enter the room and I've never seen one turn on without someone in the room. One of them is pointed towards a window that has trees blowing in the wind and birds flying by, so it is just the right sensitivity. The sensitivity can be changed to a lower level from the default. They can also be changed to manual on and auto off for situations where you still want to control the light, but want to make sure it is not left on. They are supposed to not turn on if there is enough sunlight, but I have not experienced this. They turn on every time. The rooms I have them in don't get much sunlight, so maybe it just thinks they are always dark enough. It is also supposed to learn how much sunlight is too much by you manually turning it off, but I haven't noticed that either. Maybe they just need more time. There is an audible click when they turn on and off. It is not much louder than flipping a normal light switch. I believe this is because they use a relay to turn the power on and off. This is good because some other brands use a technique that still sends a small amount of current to the light when turned off. This usually causes issues with fluorescent and LED lights. This is not a problem with the Lutron switches and they should work with all lights. I am using them with CFL's and larger florescent lights without any problems. MS-OPS2-WH specific information: This is the one you want if your light is operated by one switch and is less than 250 watts. Besides being cheaper, the on/off click is slightly quieter than the 600w switch. MS-OPS5M-WH specific information: This is for 3-way (two switches for one light) and/or more than 250w, but less than 600w. I used this one to retain the operation of the other regular switch, even though it doesn’t get used anymore. To add this into a 3-way set up, you will need an additional wire nut that is not included for the regular switch. One tip for testing it: You can not use the test setting (15 second timeout) to test the operation of regular switch. Once you use either switch, it resets back to five minutes. You may get some odd behavior if you try using the motion sensor at the same time as the regular switch, but for the most part, either switch can turn the light on or off. As mentioned above, the on/off click is slightly louder than the 250w switch. Some other reviewers have had success with using two of these switches in a 3-way setup, but it is not officially supported.

If you have led lights and are experiencing flicker, or lights that do not shut completely off then this is the right switch for you! I have tried multiple switches with occupancy sensor built in and all had an issue with flicker or not turning lights off completely. First make sure your led or cfl is dimmable compatible, as this switch is sensed as a dimmer by the lights. The main issue i think is most occupancy sesnors and newer switches have a switch locator light that leaks voltage causing enough voltage to cause flicker or not turn off. this switch has none of these problems and works like a charm. The other benefit of this switch compared to most others is you can adjust sensitivity and duration while installed with wall plate on. just press and hold manual toggle switch. Looks decent on the wall but finish feels cheap and plastic like. and not just plastic but thin plastic like the stuff the surrounds products in packaging. Other than the cheap feel , which cant be noticed without touching, this is a great switch at a great cost. this switch does not use punch down locks or screw type connectins. It has a 3 wire pigtail that needs to be twisted together with marrettes.

Mis respetos años y años y funciona como el primer día

These motion sensor switches work exactly as advertised and have been such a convenience. They reliably turn the lights on as soon as you walk into the room and automatically shut them off after about 15 minutes, so you never have to worry about leaving the lights on. They’ve been especially helpful when taking our pups outside at night. No more fumbling for the light switch with dogs eager to get out—the lights are already on when we need them. Installation was straightforward, they’ve worked flawlessly, and they add both convenience and energy savings. I highly recommend them!
