Review: Lutron Caséta Wireless HomeKit Smart Bridge, In-Wall Dimmer + Plug-In Lamp Dimmer Kits<img src="
" />
Apple's HomeKit platform has brought together an interesting array of products and manufacturers of varying backgrounds, ranging from newer companies taking their first adventurous steps into home automation to veterans in the field expanding their existing solutions to bring in HomeKit support. Among this group, Lutron sits as the oldest and most established player — the company's founder, Joel Spira, was in fact responsible for inventing the original solid state lighting dimmer back in the late 1950s — so it's not much of a surprise that Lutron's Caséta Wireless System was one of the first HomeKit products to hit retail store shelves. Focused primarily on lighting solutions, Lutron's Caséta Wireless solution provides in-wall dimmers and switches, as well as a plug-in lamp dimmer, all of which can be controlled via Lutron's own iOS and watchOS apps. The products can also be controlled through Apple's HomeKit platform via the company's Smart Bridge, which also provides support for shades and popular Wi-Fi thermostats by companies such as Nest, Honeywell, Ecobee, and more.{/exp:char_limit}
