I have 2 normal toggle switches in one box. Will this unit replace one of these without any other changes?

Indeed it will fit into a single slot in a gang box. No changes but pay attention to how to wire the switch...incorrect wiring will cause it to fail.

I'm not an electrician but think I understand the question and can venture an answer. This Honeywell unit fills the entirety of a standard box. If you want the one Honeywell to replace BOTH toggles - i.e., you want to have the lights controlled by both toggles work together - it could do that, but I don't see how you could replace one toggle and have this switch as well, both in the same box. Won't work.

yes, this is the exact situation I had. One switch to an inside light and the second switch to outside light(s). Remove the switch that controls the light(s) you want to replace with the RPLS540A. Th only thing to keep in mind is if the exiting switch plate is a standard plate for the 2 regular "toggle" type switches you will need a new one with one side for the "toggle" type switch and the other side for the RPLS540A "mod" style (rectangular shape).

Yes, but you may have to bend some of the house electrical wires in the box to move them out of the way. The back side of this thing takes up more space than a regular toggle switch. Bending the wires out of the way did the trick for me. Just make sure the power is off to both switches when messing with the wires and it should be no problem.

You don't want this if you're only going to install one switch. You're better off installing the switch by itself. Get a nice Carling rocker switch and cut a single hole for it. More often than not you'll want another switch for something and that's where this kit comes in handy.

Kyle's info is correct. Just open the old and new openers and match the switch pattern on the new one with that on the old one.

I am unaware of a "switch problem". Our unit works very well... we have had it for 6 months and use it daily for 30-60 minutes.

Mine has dual switches, but honestly I can't figure out what the one does... It is a very nice product though.

Has the switch been redesigned? I have no idea, I only purchased one. It is a rocker switch and works fine on mine.

no, it cannot simply replace a switch, it only works with a controller, and you have to have 4 z-wave switches that this controller will control

I'm sorry I have not tried but I believe the switch is single-pole single throw so I don't think it would. You could change out the switch but the one we have and I would assume standard is simple on and off.

You would be better off simply replacing your current switch with this one as long as this is a compatible switch. It's not designed to be opened easily. If you do get it opened, you will be extremely challenged to get it all back together in a way that it will actually work. Just replace the entire piece.

No. There's only one switch and it works as a toggle from one mode to another.

My remote switch works real well and I do not thank the cabinet will be a problem, but I do not know anything about a double toggle switch.

Some fan remotes have switches inside that you can change. If it has one, great, if not, I am not sure.

The one I have (Cadco OV-003) does not have another 'switch' for regular setting.

I never used the switch. Mine works okay. You must have received a defective unit. Return or exchange it ASAP

Yes, but sourcing the same exact switch might be tricky. You might not be able to duplicate the rubber boot installation, and you will have to do some soldering to make the LED work with the new switch.

I don't believe so. You would have to consult with an electrician to be sure. A better solution might be a Leviton Decora 5679 unit that has two stacked switches that fit into one regular Decora slot. That is the way I solved it for my unit. Amazon sells these.

Just replace 1. The other switch will act as disconnect, so leave it on. Works well for me.
