I understand and thanks for the information, I see that Deako is a beginner in the electrical industry.
Gentlemen of Deako... Could you answer some of the questions we have ??
Yes @markhelms2287 they ignore the question because they have no answers, they have designed something that is really not as functional as they say, inventions are made to facilitate labor, not to complicate it, Deako thinks they have invented something great and honestly it is not like that.@markhelms2287
Honestly, I don't see that this system that Deako is introducing to the market is a great invention, they are a bit complicated, many wires to connect, I have 25 years working in the construction industry and it is the first time that I see an almost totally ridiculous invention, I don't see that these switches are the great thing, I prefer the conventional ones, by the way, I just bought a new house from DR Horton in Florida, the house has those switches that by the way do not match the outlets, it looks ridiculous, I began to replace them with conventional Eaton models, they look better and honestly some of these Deako switches are somewhat loose inside, they did not convince me, I also do not see that they are of a high quality, to be able to install Deako, the electrical boxes must be deep because space is needed for the wires and space for the Deako box, I just removed a Deako box in my house and it is a mess of cables, behind the box the wires are super compressed and tight
I understand, but you do not explain how to remove the cables from a Deako box, once the wires have been introduced into the small holes, then to remove them you have to cut them ??
So I have a switch at the top and bottom of the stairs. I wanted to put these in both locations so my stairway will be lit whenever I'm going up or down. Why is there not an option for this?
👎deako very bad, use for year , switch no work , the light can’t turn on
Can I have one smart switch and simple switch for two way controller
These deako switches and cradle boxes are no good. In construction I can tell you firsthand that these cradles always fail. The motion sensors always fail and stop working regardless of the mode, the dimmers constantly fail and need replacement. Please do not waste time and money on these.
It's true, buying these switches is throwing money away, I wouldn't recommend it even to my worst enemy.
It would be nice to design a motion sensor light switch that can have a 60-minute setting for areas such as garages and bathrooms with (no neutral wire) for older homes.
My house is fitted for Deako switches. I would buy the smart ones, but they're too expensive. That's why I'm changing them all out.
You lost me. Can any switch become a smart switch, or does that switch need to have been initially wired for that?
Can any Deako switch become a smart switch, or does that box need to be initially wired for that?
Ours was a simple pop out and pop in. Have to pull out the green handle at the top first. We have a simple Deako switch and I am troubleshooting intermittently blinking chandelier. Wiring versus switch. One year old.
Is this way working with tuya smart wifi switches?
I work in foxconn Bajacalifornia maid swich deako
i bought a simple motion sensor switch. i plug it into my outlet and it does nothing. my electrical box is by deako so im not sure why this is happening
I had the same issue with a different switch. It turned out that the neutral wire was not connected. I am sure that is why yours did not either.
My first concern is how do you release an improperly installed wire and apparently this question is being ignored by the Deako reps.
Yes, they ignore the question because they have no answers, they have designed something that is really not as functional as they say, inventions are made to facilitate labor, not to complicate it, Deako thinks they have invented something great and honestly it is not like that.@markhelms2287
I get DOA alot today 5 alone. I got every other type of smart switches all worked. Tried every outlet with 5 new ones. Never worked.
Please go into more detail, this doesn’t cover all of it including how to remove the top plate
How can you remove jumper wires from backplate. I’ve broken wires inside and now it appears that backplate is unusable
They might be easy to switch in and out the switch but they back part you wire is an absolute nightmare to re work. They probably intentionally designed them this way so you would have to replace the entire housing if you wanted to edit your wiring. Super lame design.
What value does Deako bring in their partnership with DR Horton to the consumerover competitors? Does Deako offer some discounts for the DR Horton's consumer?
Didn’t show how to do it lmfao
It never connects to WiFi! That’s why they didn’t show it.
Awesome information
Hi. Are the face plate paintable and or are you going to have a grey or black version in the future. Thanks.
You could always spray paint them to the desired colour too with a high quality paint so it doesn't chip 🙂
@@MissAmazings yeah I’ve done it in the past with the regular ones. But was hoping for the lazy route lol. The sanding, primer,paint not fun.
@CarlosCruz-ew5gu all valid points lol a colour series from them would be cool. Like different on trend colours that you could swap out with seasonal or other colours.. MONEY!
We would love to review this on our channel. Who would be the best contact?
🧐that hair tho..
Any tips on removing a wire from the terminals? Im a tech that goes behind sub crews to fix their work and almost every hot check these switches are improperly terminated. I've read that I should "twist" the wire out but twisting isn't an option. I fight the switch and the wires a lot of times breaking the wire off in the terminals.
Did you ever figure this out? Having the same issue.
@@patrickfaulds5683 the only way I have been able to do anything is to cut the wire enough to make a pigtail and then tie it to the desired conductor. It creates a lot of wire nuts and takes up space but it works. These switches suck.
@@TXJourneyman These switches really stink.
@@PedroTinnirello-ny9rv they absolutely do. They recently came out with a single gang switch with screw terminals and those are way way way better but instead of making this change across the board they opted for pigtails on 2, 3 and 4gangs, and some come faulty out the package pigtails aren't set in the termination holes completely. Creates a giant overfilled messy box and sometimes after you wire nuts everything you find that one of the pigtails is faulty and you have to start all over and even wait on more supplies to finish the job. DEAKO!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!! HAVE ALL THE SWITCH KITS SCREW TERMINALS!!!
How do you connect a 3 way and 4 way wires to you deako switch
Nathan, that is great and the backplates are really that easy to install. My question is how to released the wires from the backplate if it is installed into the wrong slot? Do you have a video or reply for that? Thanks In my specific case the builder installed the switches in the wrong logical order inside the box (switches in 3 gang box do not control their nearest light). I need to reorder the backplate wiring.
Looking for that info too...
Where do you set it to turn off? I don’t need it to stay on for very long
Hi Johnny! The Motion Sensor has a button that can be used to manually switch the lights on and off - that button pops off and beneath it, you'll find your settings! We have instructions about the settings here: support.deako.com/hc/en-us/articles/4406224110103-Motion-Sensor-Timer-Guide Let us know if you have any additional questions!
I have the same question, how to get the wire out?
Hi there! You can pull the wires out of quick-wire backplates by twisting the wire. Let us know if you have any additional questions!
@@Deakolights thank you
@@Deakolights I tried this method and it snapped the wire, trapping a chunk of it inside and blocking a new wire from being inserted.
I talked with an electrician who came by and they said to twist the box while pulling the wire
How do I get wires out
Hi Caleb, did you figure how to get the wires out?
Twisting the wires will let them slide out of the backplate. Thanks for asking!
I have some can lights that are on a 4-way switch. Would these dimmers work for that or is there a dimmer that would work on a 4-way?
Great question! Our smart dimmers would indeed work with can light fixtures in a 4-way configuration! Also, if you happen to have more questions, feel free to reach out to us at support@deako.com 👍
Are those UL listed?
Yes, they are!
Just saw Matt from the buildshow unbox this. Great idea.
