When you pulled out the Fass switch, I immediately thought my phone screen went off. Great video. You got my Lutron all set up the way I wanted. Thanks.

All I can say is two years…TWO YEARS!!

Two years ago I bought my house and the previous owners installed this switch in the bathroom and didn’t leave any information. They must have had it set to 3 minutes before it turns off because it seemed like I was constantly sticking my hand out of the shower and waving it to get the light on. I never noticed the brand name on it and figured I was just screwed and I never bothered getting a new one. This video was so helpful!

Installed these in the bathroom of my bar that has a very low key dark atmosphere. needless to say having these ramp up to max brightness all the time was antithetical to having a dimmer in the first place. After reading the manual and watching another video, YOURS saved my ass. Thank you very much.

This video is SO MUCH BETTER than the one by the company itself! Thank you - my switch is now perfectly set up!

Good job explaining the nightmare switch! hopefully your description is better then the giant sheet of paper instruction that comes with the switch.

Top of the line video, thanks, I usually throw instructions away.
Beautifully explained

Great video, I'd like to add to exit programming mode instead of waiting 1 minute for it to timeout. You can simply press the T button or big rectangular center button and hold it for 5 seconds it will exist. Caution holding it for 15 seconds restores all settings back to factory settings.

Thank you so much, I had been trying to program this Lurton motion switch for a week! By the way it was installed in the bedroom. The auto light was driving me crazy with l movement. 😀

Saved us from months of speculation! thank you. Never thought you could turn the damn thing just off!

This was very helpful as we somehow misplaced the instructions and did not even know the model, until I looked at your thumbnail under search results. Thank you

Thanks Seth! Its been so long since I programmed it. This thing is great for pendant lights. I might have to do my whole room too.

Thanks for translating the directions for us... easy to follow and well done video. The time links to the sections were great.

Mine turns on itself with no occupancy in the room, no matter how I set it up or what I do, it always turn on randomly and I think the unit is defective

[BigGRoams]

[marsha]

Thank I have been trying to figure this light switch out forever!!! It wasn’t installed by us and I was clueless. Thanks for sharing.

[dondamond]

Now that is a well made instructional video! Thank you.

[royolao]

Thank yu so much for your video bud so explained step by step !

[alexishigdon]

Thank you. very clear and to the point. Also, you didn't go on and on with unnecessary verbiage.

[MrKyoo]

Thank you Seth for the detailed description of the settings. I really prefer the 1 minute timeout settings but while in the shower the 1 minute isn’t long enough since the sensor doesn’t recognize while someone is in the shower.

What a great video. So clear and to the point. Thanks so much for making it.
