drmark12pa Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I have several older switches that I've taken out of my project once I moved to my newer home and had to use keypads in place to control multiple things. I have several of the above switches and wondering what the actual difference is between these as far as newest or oldest versions. I'm planning on using 2 of them for 2 different ceiling fans understanding there is no speed control which I've done previously when I just want a ceiling fan on or off.

Matt Lowe Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I am very likely wrong on this but I beleive one shipped with Embernet and the newer model shipped with zigbee pro. as far as switches go i would treat them as the same device. A ceiling fan is fan just keep in mind you would have no speed control If it has a remote I would suggest getting a Bond.io Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to decide what to keep and what to get rid of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAV Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 SW1 vs SW2 - they changed the relay to handle more current. I believe the power specs of the 101 are similar to the SW1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyknight Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 the 101, 102, sw1 and sw2 all use the same driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
