Can I use Insteon 2842-222 Wireless Motion Sensor with INSTEON 2672-222 LED Bulb only? Or do I need a hub as well?

You can use the motion sensor and LED bulb together without a hub, but the sensor and bulb will need to be paired manually. If you have a hub, it makes connecting and controlling all of your devices much easier. Because you can see and select all your device settings and do connections through the hub. If you plan to have many different interconnected Insteon devices, I would recommend you also get a hub.

The hub isn't necessary. The motion sensor easily links to the Insteon bulb. If you want timers and other automated features or remote access then you need the hub.

I have mine controlling two (2) non-insteon led can lights on my front porch without a hub. Hope that hrlps

You can do it without the hub, but the hub makes it far easier to do and gives you more options.

INSTEON 2663-222 On/Off Outlet. The plugs can be controlled separately on that model. The motion sensor can trigger any item that is registered with the hub.

I returned this bulb. The motion sensor did not work well. I bought these instead on Amazon....Viridi Motion Activated 8.1 Watt LED Bulb (2 Pack).I had them since March 2013. And they work great. The Viridi ones do not come on during the daytime. I installed them at my outdoor covered patio. But I noticed Amazon does not have them available right now.

Yes. I was not yet ready to fully move from X 10 when I had several of these in my system. They program the same way as the old Smarthome X 10 only modules. I have since converted over to all Insteon. Good luck!

I do not know. I used to use X-10 system to run my lights. The software is no longer available for X-10. Insteon stinks. Wait for something better, which should be soon. If you call their support line be prepared to wait for 45 minutes of more to talk to a tech. Insteon will kinda sorta run X10 devices.

Sorry but the insteon garage module was only product I've purchased. I use the insteon app to operate it w the hub. Thus I don't have any experience w the keypad control

This motion sensing light with a 100 watt bulb will detect any motion. Since my light ficture was put in the wall by the builder it is 1 foot down from the ceiling on the wall and faces outward. The unit works as I walk into the room from my Kitchen. You will not have any trouble putting into the socket and then put in the light bulb. You will notice on the socket how to place it to let it detect any thing 360 degrees. Mine lasted over 10 years or better before it went out. This one is brand new and I think it will last until I die..I am 82

This sensor can handle compact florescent bulbs if the bulbs are rated for motion sensors. Not all compact florescent bulbs are made for the constant on/off that motion sensors demand. I would go with LED lighting, the price has come down on these and they can handle the on/off of sensors and will last many times longer.

I suspect the easiest way to handle this would be to simply replace the switch that operates that socket/lighting circuit with an insteon switch, then link the motion detector with your new Insteon switch to control power to the socket. Another option would be to use part #2443-222 (micro on/off module) wired into the electrical box behind your bulb socket. The micro on/off module has a sense lead also, so when wired correctly you could still use your existing on/off switch to turn the socket on & off as well. If you go this route though, you will need to make sure you have both hot, neutral & the 3rd wire coming from your wall switch all in the box. Often lighting fixtures will only have 2 wires running to them, which would not work for this scenario.

Can you please restate the question? Are you talking about Insteon compatible devices?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same one. This starter kit is very common. The Hub is the key part you need to get started with Insteon from there you just buy modules to control the items you want. My starter kit came with two lamp modules which was enough to get started. I've seen bundles with other items by other vendors but I haven't seen the Costco to be able to compare it exactly.

If you search for "insteon module" there are indoor and outdoor versions you can plug into an outlet and control with the motion sensor. I use the outdoor one to control path lighting.

Insteon 2474DWH is a 2-wire dimmer. Use that if you don't have a neutral wire. The main difference is it not dual-band. It only communicates RF.

Any dimmable bulb will work (up to 300W I believe), and it definitely doesn't have to be an Insteon one. Because this doesn't have a relay, it has to ramp down using the dimmer and isn't true On/Off. Because of this it can cause damage to non-dimmable loads (e.g. some CFLs). You can find the documentation for the unit here if you want to read further (http://www.smarthome.com/manuals/2457D.pdf)

By itself, No. You need the INSTEON Hub, than it will work with the Android or iOS App.

Well, not really. The sensor must connect to the hub over a short-distance wireless link. The hub then handles the tasks of alerting or controlling whatever the user has programmed. The hub must be connected to the internet for any information to leave the premises.

Simply link this motion sensor to an insteon dry contact device such as the insteon I/O Linc (part number 2450). With the I/O Linc, you can turn on and off any kind of device that is controlled by an on/off switch (such as turning on a digital recorder that plays the sound of a dog barking). If you use the free Insteon HouseLinc sofware and can dedicate a computer to being on all the time, you can do another number of functions with this device. Good luck with your project.
