Kudos to whoever came up with the idea for the Switchmate TSM001WCAN Smart Light Switch Cover, because it’s absolutely brilliant. Smart light switches are cool, but they’re also a huge pain in the butt to install. You can do it yourself if you’re handy, but you have to cut the power from your fuse box and then be extra careful messing with wires to do the installation. The only alternative used to be paying an electrician to do it for you, but now there’s a better way. Pick up a Switchmate on Amazon and any light switch becomes a smart light switch in literal seconds!
