tomas21 Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) I have one Insteon 2-wire 2474DWH switch at the end of a circuit that is a 2-wire with no neutral. I know the 2-wire doesn't work with LED's it can't turn them completely off based on its design but was curious if anyone has success found a resistor bypass solution that would allow the 2-wire insteon to turn off my LED light. There is no neutral in the light switch gang box but there is one in the light box for the LED porch light. Please advise anyone has successfully found a solution and one that wouldn't impact ISY signals. I am willing to try to see if I can use LED's otherwise this will be the only incandescence light in my entire house : ) Edited March 27, 2023 by tomas21 Update
Techman Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) You would need something like this. https://www.amazon.com/Aeotec-AEZW150-Bypass-Z-Wave-Dimmer/dp/B017BK1MIA The led bulbs are controlled by a built-in electronic circuit which does not allow enough voltage to pass to the 2474DWH switch, which has a triac dimmer, for it to properly work.

Brian H Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 I have seen other brand resistors also used. Designed for a two wire switch. With success.
