The Z-Wave Plus 1000W dimmer uses the latest generation of Leviton's dimming technology for lighting control products. It supports dimmable LED and CFL technologies up to 450 watts along with support for legacy incandescent lighting loads up to 1000 watts. The dz1kd is Z-Wave Plus certified, ensuring the latest technology, increased communication range, network wide inclusion, and over the air updates. The highly advanced design features two-way feedback, is scene capable, and is supported by security systems, hubs, and gateways that are Z-Wave enabled, providing remote access and scheduling abilities. Featuring an all new appearance, the true rocker allows users to push the top of the paddle to turn on or the bottom to turn off. Additionally, the dim/brighten bar is conveniently located along the right hand side of the paddle, ensuring ease of use with the state-of-the-art device. Vanishing leds on the left hand side of the paddle show current and target light level with real-time feedback. To meet any decor, color change kits are available in white, ivory, light almond, Gray, black, and brown. For the most professional and cleanest installation, pair the device with an optional Leviton screwless wall plate. DZ1KD is for use with Z-Wave enabled hubs like the Samsung SmartThings, to help facilitate a comprehensive smart home.  If you do not wish to use a hub but still desire voice controls and select third-party device integration, Leviton recommends the DW1KD.  If using in a HomeKit installation, utilize the DH1KD.
