Easy install, setup is cumbersome, works great through native app and even better linked to Alexa
I received and installed this switch today. It is easy to install, but it does protrude from the wall (thickness of frame/housing) enough that a standard switch plate will not pull flush against the wall behind it. This only matters if you’re using it in a box with other switches and need a double or triple switch cover (like my application). It did include a single switch cover that is deep enough, and it appears to be a nice one.You must use the native app for initial setup and linking to Alexa. It appears you needs BOTH apps running for Alexa control. I would prefer if Alexa could recognize and configure this switch without the native app.The included (paper) instructions were not useful for setup. I had to trial and error my way through, but it was intuitive enough that between Alexa and Smart Life apps, I figured it out pretty quickly. Depress and hold the switch for 7 seconds to enter pairing mode.The switch works fine being controlled by either app, although the smart-life app is very basic, just on/off and building a simple timer schedule. Through Alexa however, you have greatly expanded capability, such as sunset to sunrise, with offsets, easily configured as a routine. I have mine set that way (through the Alexa routine.Once thing that seems counterintuitive is that the LED status light is RED for on, and GREEN for off. There does not appear to be a way to change that, but, a quick google search revealed that this convention appears to actually be an old electrical standard. Red for “Power on, unsafe” and green for “Power off, safe”.All in all I’m happy with this unit, and it does everything the manufacturer claims it does.

Smart Swith that doesn’t need a hub or neutral wire but still works great!
I recently upgraded my home lighting system. I selected the BN-LINK WiFi Smart In-Wall Light Switch.Installation was pretty easy, and I would say that anyone that has ever done any fix-it stuff around the house would probably not have difficulty installing the switch. There are instructions instructions provided made the process straightforward.One of the standout features is its integration with Amazon Alexa – setting it up to work with voice commands was quick and easy. The convenience of being able to control the lights with simple voice prompts adds a new level of ease to my life.What sets the BN-LINK switch apart is its compatibility without the need for a hub or a neutral wire. This not only simplifies the setup process but also makes it more accessible for those who may not have a neutral wire in their electrical system.The switch has been reliable in its performance, responding promptly to commands through the app or Alexa. While I appreciate the convenience it offers, it’s important to note that occasional connectivity issues have arisen when the home network had connectivity issues. However, these instances have been rare and didn’t significantly impact my overall use of the device.In would say that the BN-LINK WiFi Smart In-Wall Light Switch is a great addition for those looking to modernize their home lighting with user-friendly features and seamless smart home integration.

Works well with modified faceplate. Possibly limited lifespan.
Overall I’m satisfied with this switch. It installed simply. It is a tad too wide for standard deco-style faceplates requiring a little manual whittling of the faceplate to fit. It works easily with the Smart Life app. The cloud-based scheduling and dawn/dusk scene triggers work well as long as you have a stable internet connection. Setting it up works reliably provided you have fixed 2.4GHz wifi (no hybrid with 5GHz) and turn off any VPN app on your phone while setting up the switch. It works well with Google Home, though with occasional service hiccups. Or, if you prefer local automation that doesn’t depend on the cloud, there are Tuya and Tasmota firmware images available which make this switch work with Home Assistant and other solutions.It lasted 4 years and 1 month before starting to have stability problems. It locked up twice requiring a power-cycle at the breaker and then hard reset and re-setup to get it working again. Then it died completely after another month. No light, no response to button presses. A leaky 470uF 10v capacitor inside testing way below spec caused the failure. Replacing that repaired it. Here’s hoping it lasts for several more years of operation.

Don’t Buy This Light Switch
I installed two BN-Link non-dimmable switches about a month ago and, to date, and after many attempts, have still not been able to get either of them to show up on my Amazon Echo Show.(This is in contrast to several of the dimmable switches what I have installed that showed up immediately on the Echo and my Smart Life Apps.)I followed your emailed instructions on making the non-dimmable switches hookup and also went to the internet instructions, all to no avail. (The written instructions that came with the switches are wrong by your own admission.)When attempting to make the hookup I received both audio and message notifications that the hookup had been made. However, neither non-dimmable switch shows up on the Echo and neither switch is recognized by a visual representation of the switch nor are either able to be voice commanded on my Echo.I contacted BN-Link tech support twice but they offered only minimal support the first time and failed to respond on the second attempt. I will have to replace both switches since they will not work with my Echo.Now one of the switches has failed completely. These switches are junk. Save your money.

Buen producto y se ve de buena calidad, tanto en su apariencia como sus materiales.La instalación fue sencilla y la conexión con la app de Smart Life (Tuya) no tuvo problema; se conecto facilmente y se puede controlar bien.**NOTA** Solo considerar que aunque trae una entrada USB, esta no se puede controlar por la app .. solo las 2 conexiones se pueden prender/apagar; la de USB siempre estara encendida.

I’ve got a light over my kitchen table, and it dims with no problem. The light buzzes a bit, but I’m hoping that’s just voltage discharge.Set up easy into where the light switch was previously. That being said, you will be working with electricity to install it so if you aren’t comfortable with that, seek some expertise.Works really easy with my Android as well without another device. I just say “Google, turn on dining room” and on it goes! It doesn’t take two commands at the same time, so I can’t say “Dining room on and at 50%,” it needs to be two commands. Still love it though.

I brought this for my bathroom. It automatically turned on when it sence a motion. Also turn off when there isn’t. The setting is easy.
