As a leader in the fast-growing smart home market, Lutron provides the perfect solution for any size home and any budget—whether you’re building a new home or want to upgrade your existing one. Lutron works with more smart home devices than any other smart lighting control brand. With over 1,000 dimmable bulbs, regular bulbs can now be made smart, starting with control at the switch. We’ve summarized Lutron’s top three systems, available to order at PROLIGHTING to assist you in deciding. Keep reading to find which whole-home smart solution is right for you.
Caséta by Lutron
Caséta is a lighting control system that is a great for anyone looking to dip their toes into the world of smart lighting control. With a wide range of smart dimmers, switches, and plugs for indoors and out, Caséta offers a complete smart lighting control system that is also easy to use and install. Lutron Caséta was purposely designed to work in homes of all ages, including ones with old wiring and new. And since it can control up to 75 devices, you can be confident that you can expand the system as you go.
Enhance control and expand connectivity with the smart hub. Set a schedule around the setting of the sun so your family always comes home to a well-lit house. Create a custom scene to dim the lights and drop the shades for a movie night. Or turn off all the lights from the comfort of your bed. That’s just the start.
Caséta is also the most connected smart lighting control system, so you can seamlessly integrate other smart home products and services such as Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant, Sonos speakers, and more. This allows you to build your smart home one room at a time and easily manage all of your devices as they expand.
RA2 Select
Enjoy personalized smart lighting for any home and any budget with Lutron’s RA2 Select. RA2 Select provides added convenience, more comfort, and enhanced peace of mind—allowing you to stay in control of your home, even when you’re not there. When you choose a RA2 Select system, you’re selecting smart home technology comprised of keypads, light controls, fan controls, temperature controls, appliance controls, and shades. The RA2 Select offering was developed so you can choose the specific components you want in order to create the system that will best suit your lifestyle.
Designed to support up to 100 devices, the RA2 Select Main Repeater lets you control your lights on your smartphone, from anywhere in the world using the free Lutron app. A RA2 Select system makes it easy to turn your home into a smart home and build its foundation around these key features:
Scheduling — you can program lights and shades to automatically adjust at set times of day.
Geofencing — controls lights based on your location. This feature can turn lights on for you when you arrive home and notify you if you’ve left lights on when you leave.
Smart Away — randomly turns lights on and off in the evening, so it looks like you’re home, even when you’re not.
A RA2 Select system features simple setup and technology you can count on. Each system setup through the Lutron app automatically configures light levels for typical activities. The pre-engraved Pico scene keypad guarantees every scene keypad in the home has an intuitive scene name, such as Bright, Entertain, and Relax, for those preset light levels. Lutron’s patented Clear Connect RF technology sets the bar for reliability. You can trust your system will work with precision and accuracy, free from interference with other frequency bands, every time you use it.
RadioRA 3
As part of its commitment to professional installers, Lutron’s newest whole-home system, RadioRA 3, was released in 2022. RadioRA 3 features the first-ever line of wall controls with both light bar design and IoT (Internet of Things) connectivity, a new all-in-one processor powered by PoE (Power over Ethernet), and new simpler programming software and app-based editing features.
RadioRA 3 promises to transform how installers – and their customers – experience home lighting control. RadioRA 3 includes beautiful customizable controls that offer the smart home features homeowners want most, such as coming home to a well-lit house and transforming a room into a comfort zone with the touch of a button or a voice command.
RadioRa 3 is not a DIY install, as opposed to Lutron’s other systems. You will need a professional to efficiently design, program, and install a custom system for your home. One benefit though, is that your installer is able to make system changes remotely, post install, which saves you the hassle of having to be home for service, troubleshooting, etc. The new state of the art processor allows you to connect up to 200 devices featuring Lutron’s proprietary ClearConnect RF technology for reliable, lightning-fast performance. RadioRA 3 also offers backwards compatibility with most RadioRA 2 and RA2 Select devices, so if you’re an existing customer you can expand your system with new RadioRA 3 wall controls.
RadioRA 3 works with more connected brands (Control4, Creston, Elan, RTI, Savant, URC, and more) than any other dedicated lighting control system in its class. It also works with all the top brands homeowners ask for, including Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, Ring, Sonos, and others.
