What kinds of light bulbs work with Z-Wave light control?

Most standard light bulbs are compatible with all of our Z-Wave light controls. For specific requirements, refer to the device manufacturer's installation or user manual.

For a full list of Alarm.com-compatible devices, contact your service provider

Plug-in modules and Z-Wave in-wall switches

We recommend the controlled lights not exceed 600 watts (Incandescent), 1800W (15A) Resistive or one-half HP Motor.

Z-Wave in-wall dimmer switches

These should only be used with permanently installed incandescent lighting fixtures (that do not exceed 500 watts) and should not be used to control fluorescent or LED lighting.
