Can this be used as a 3-way switch?

Yes it can be used as a 3 way switch. This is the main programmable switch in the 3way setup. I used this in a 3 way setup in conjunction with Lutrons Companion dimmer switches to give the dimming capabilities at all the switches. Worked well and easy to install unless you have small electric boxes in wall because these are bulky switches. These do work with certain brand LED fixtures I have them on the Halo brand recessed LED fixtues and the work great brightened the room immensely. Hope this helps.

Not by themselves without a 3 way wire. This switch is used to replace existing 3 way wiring setup. However if you use a hub like SmartThings you can using apps and just standard Zwave switches.http://community.smartthings.com/t/have-one-light-switch-trigger-another-light/5294

Well, the socket accepts it, and there are contacts in the socket appropriate for a three way bulb. But, on my two identical lamps it won't do the three way feature. Not sure if the switch is broken or what is preventing the three way feature from working.

It will work as a three-way switch. The back doesn't follow the standard methodology. Traditionally, there is an additional wire in 3-way boxes, which this lacks. This is because it instead utilizes the common wire for communication, and I believe must be configured as a 3-way switch in the software.

Yes, you can use it just as an on and off switch. It's how I use this particular device.

Do you want to control your fan and light from more than one location or do you want to put this device in a 2 or 3 gang box? No you cant use this as a 3 way switch. Yes this wil fit in a box with another maestro - If we are talking a bout a two gang or larger box.

I don't see why not, as long as there is not too much current for this switch and it's wires. Keep it away from PC parts that might be sensitive to magnets like your hard drives.

I don't know for sure, but this is a simple three way switch device so it might work.

Yes...it can be used as a single pole or as a 3-way switch. Someone with basic electrical skills can install.

Dear Heidi, I really don't know. I use mine to control a single pole switch. It may be too much for a 4 way switch set up. To be sure, check with an electrician. Good luck.

No, you cannot use it directly for a 3 way switch, since the contacts are SPST type (Single Pole Single Trow).

If you want to create a 3 way for the garage it should work but not on an existing 3 way.e.g. if you wanted a switch in the house to operate a single pole switch in the garage that would work as that is the purpose of this switch. Fluorescent fixtures I am not sure about. Mine (older model) works the kitchen ceiling fixture which has 4 compact fluorescent bulb plus a ceiling fan.

It can be used as a 1-way switch or a 3-way switch depending on how you wire it.

If you mean the 3x1 switch, the answer is yes. All three source devices can be on but only one input will be selected at a time.

I don't believe it will work on a three way switch. It actually turns a standard switch into a three way system using the radio controlled remote switch. The wording on the description & instructions is confusing & a little misleading.

Yes. That is why I purchased a few of these switches. Keep in mind that there must be a neutral wire available in the switch box to connect to this switch.

I don't think so. This switch is for multiple devices with optical audio "out" (TV, Blu-ray, etc.) into one device with optical audio "in" (e.g., home theater or receiver). I don't think it can be used the other way around.
