Today, Lutron Electronics, renowned for its expertise in lighting control and automated shading solutions, announces exciting additions to its Caséta product line: the new Diva Smart Dimmer ELV+ and a range of new color options for Pico Paddle Remotes. These enhancements are designed to meet the needs of professional installers, providing greater versatility and aesthetic appeal.

Adam Mack, Senior Product Manager at Lutron, emphasized the importance of these additions: "We heard clearly from our community of professional installers that a smart, paddle-style dimmer with our ELV+ technology was a must-have for the Caséta portfolio. The new Diva smart dimmer ELV+ complements our recent launches, helping to round out the family of products."

Comprehensive Smart Dimming with ELV+ Technology

Diva Smart Dimmer ELV+ is a significant addition to the Caséta lineLutron

The Diva Smart Dimmer ELV+ is a significant addition to the Caséta line. It offers phase-selectable dimming for various lighting types, including LED, MLV, ELV, incandescent, and halogen. This flexibility ensures optimal dimming performance across different load types. Installers can choose between forward-phase and reverse-phase dimming using either the Lutron app or the physical control, providing a smoother dimming experience for all residential lighting applications.

The ELV+ dimmer is particularly beneficial for low-voltage applications such as under-cabinet, track, accent, and tape lighting. Available in six color options—white, ivory, light almond, black, brown, and gray—the dimmer matches the paddle-style aesthetic of the latest Caséta family additions, including the Diva smart dimmer, Claro smart switch, and Pico paddle remote.

Effortless 3-Way Control and Versatile Remote Options

Paired with the Pico Paddle Remote, the Diva Smart Dimmer ELV+ becomes a versatile solution for adding 3-way control to any residential light. This setup requires no cutting holes or pulling wires, enabling quick and easy installation of an additional control point.

The Pico Paddle Remote family offers intuitive, flexible control of Caséta smart switches and dimmers, Serena smart shades, fans, and more. Pico remotes provide seamless functionality with a typical 10-year battery life and no need for a hub, app, or Wi-Fi. They can be used as handheld remotes, placed on tabletop pedestals, or mounted on almost any flat surface, including brick or glass. Professional installers will appreciate the ease of adding a Pico remote as a second switch without the need for wiring.

To enhance aesthetic versatility, the Pico Paddle Remote is now available in five new colors: black, light almond, ivory, gray, and brown, in addition to the original white. These color options allow consumers to match their remotes to the Diva Smart Dimmer and Claro Smart Switch, ensuring a cohesive look throughout the home.
