Our verdict

A plug-and-play motion lighting kit with a wireless sensor you can place anywhere in the room. It is on/off only, and the switch handles a modest load.

Overview

A closet, pantry or laundry room is where this Lutron kit earns its keep: the Claro switch replaces the wall switch, and a wireless motion sensor mounted anywhere in the room turns lights on and off as you come and go.

Homeowners get hands-free lighting in rooms where the switch is awkward or outside the door, with a sensor that needs no wiring. The switch carries a modest current limit, so check the fixtures on the circuit.

Who it's for

Rooms entered with full hands, or closets with the switch outside, suit the remote-mounted sensor. Anyone needing dimming should note this is an on/off switch.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Sensor mounts anywhere, no wiring
  • Occupancy and vacancy modes
  • Works with any bulb type
  • One sensor runs several switches
Cons
  • On/off only, no dimming
  • Modest switch current limit
  • Neutral wire requirement not listed

Performance notes

Lights respond to the wireless sensor, which covers a wide field and signals the switch over the Clear Connect link. Vacancy mode turns lights off automatically but leaves turning them on to you.
