C by GE

[cdallum]

Anybody else hear about the new C by GE switches at CES? They don't need a neutral wire, so that's a big plus for those of us with older homes. Even though they don't need a hub, it would be nice if they can work with a hub to integrate with other devices and automations. Perhaps they will get some form of driver support with HE?

C by GE unveils the first hubless smart switches that don’t require neutral...

They're bluetooth and wifi. Hubitat doesn't support bluetooth. And I don't know that the C architecture has an open API. So, I highly doubt a driver is possible. But it would still be a cloud implementation and that isn't really Hubitat's "thing".

Yep, two other threads have been started for the same products:

• New GE switches. What do you think?

• New GE switches

EDIT: And much as I did for the second, I'm linking to both of them here so there will always be links back to the first if anyone wishes to consolidate discussion.

I stopped pointing that out to people because I always got yelled at for doing it.

Thanks. I searched for C by GE but didn't get any results.
