By local control, I mean if the Z-wave hub is down will the switch still work as a dumb switch and turn the lights on/off?

This is the product I would like to get, but can't find if they allow 'dumb switch' operation. Does anyone have experience with these? https://byjasco.com/ultrapro-z-wave-in-wall-smart-switch-with-quickfit-and-simplewire-white

Thanks!

thanks! thats certainly useful. I'm just starting out. I'm sure everyone looks for the same thing (make sure the lights work even when the hub is down) so maybe it was too obvious to include in the description of the product.

Thanks for your help!

I personally have a ton of Enbrighten switchs and they have been rock solid.
