Say the switch is physically off/down, and I use my phone to turn the lights on. Does the switch physically actuate and move to up/on?

Although this switch looks like a "rocker" switch, it is just a "push button" switch. Push the top half for "on", push the bottom half for "off". It does not stay in a up or down position. Your phone can activate the on & off. A small blue LED is on to indicate the switch is off. The LED will be off when the switch is on.

There a relay in there you don't see the switch move .. It works really good

This switch has an active relay that gets activated every time you mechanically press the switch in up or down mode. There is actually a micro switch that is pressed inside. The switch will not retain its position in up or down direction as this is not a mechanical switch. This is the case if you are activating the switch using a Zwave command through your mobile device. Listen closely when you are trying to turn the switch on or off, you will hear a click sound. That is the sound from relay operation inside the switch. Your switch will not physically show any movement. If it does, that is the sign of some super natural activity going on. Cheers . Hope this was helpful.

Phyisically it's in the same position on or off. The only difference is in the off position a blue LED turns on. To use your phone with this you will need a Veralite or Vera3 as a gateway.

No. The switch a always stays at a neutral setting. When you press the top lights go on and the switch returns to its neutral setting. When you press the bottom the lights go out and bc again the switch returns to neutral. When you actuate it remotely it does not physically move.

Actually it not a toggle switch, regardless if ON or OFF, the position does not changed. When push, it activate the function and go back to the initial position. When you use your phone, you only hear a click. Hope I was helpful.

No, the switch actually doesn't even toggle when you use your fingers, it just clicks and the light either go off or on. I don't have it connected to a phone, just a remote, but it works great.

Yes. The switch is on the back of the lamp and has on, off, and motion activated settings.

Unfortunately no. Some motion lights have a constant on mode when a switch is wired in-line and a properly timed switch from off to on would activate it. Vise versa to put it back into motion. The manual made no mention of this option. However it might not be a bad idea to call the manufacturer to double check for any unmentioned features.

The switch is an "on-off" switch - you can switch it on and it stays on until you switch it off

Correct. The LED only comes on in the ON position and is off in the OFF position. This is a good thing since you won't accidentally leave your switch on as the LED is pretty bright and there is no mistaking whether the switch is ON or OFF. I am very satisfied with this switch and finished up my light install very well and was a definite upgrade over the supplied switch that came with my lights.

No. Pressing the switch until it clicks will toggle on/off. Pressing the switch part-way will advance through the modes once per press. The only downside is that when you turn on the light it will be in the next mode from the one it was in before the light was turned off because while clicking the switch does turn off the light, it also advances the mode. However, you can cycle through the five modes quite quickly once you are used to it. Its not ideal but i have used mine almost everyday for the last two years and it really isnt very annoying.

No, it turns on and off when someone enters and leaves the room. You can also control it from the switch.

No it doesn't work as simple light switch. There is an on off function for the sensor though. I do not see a lack of this function as a problem at all. :) I still recommend this.

The switch is a maintained contact switch meaning that it stays in the position you select. It does not return to the off position.

Abe: The switch is a built-in, inline on-off switch that you control with your finger. I don't see anything intermittent about the switch control or power source.

The light's power switch is not spring loaded and will stay in the ON (or OFF) position when the remote light switch is turned ON and OFF.

No, this switch does not automatically return to the off position. It has 3 distinct positions. On-Off-On. You must physically move it to each position. Try searching for a "momentary" switch.

No. The switch is passive, a straight line in and out through a push-button selector.

Yes, when u switch to the on position it should automatically lock, if it doesnt there may be something wrong with the switch. Just be sure u r locking it completely in the on position.

If the light is turned off with the app it will remember the condition it was in. If it is turned off at the main power switch the app will not recognize it until it is logged in to the app again.

Yes & No ... I just moved mine to a switch and it will turn the light off , if already on, but you must touch it to turn it back on. I would not recommend it if you are looking for a lamp that will switch on and off without having to hunt for it in the dark and touch it. It always has to be within an arm's reach.

no, it doesn't seem like it. as you flip the switch the light comes on. hope this helps.
