    Yeah, I agree. And then you can have your override immediately available and not be forced to use your phone all the time, or have to keep the switch on all the time.

    If you have smart bulbs and want to turn them off temporarily, you have to do it through your phone or if you use the switch you need to remember to turn the switch back on or you can’t control the bulbs through your phone until you do. Makes so much more sense to have the controllers in the switches instead of the bulbs.

    Plus less much heat to wear down the circuits.
