The Inovelli Red series is a popular choice for Z-Wave switches. They also make a Zigbee version with similar features. Personally, I have been using Lutron Caseta switches which use a proprietary protocol, but you can get local control and they've been incredibly solid.


Over the years, every time I've looked at the Inovelli switches they are always out of stock. I really wanted to switch to them but could never make it happen. If they've solved their stock issues, that's good to hear.


I don't think they have unfortunately which is one of the reasons I'm using the Caseta switches. I would love to switch myself too since the price point is similar, they use an open standard, and the controllable LED is a just a cool added feature.


The range and battery life on the remotes is unbelievable as well.
