The Pico paddle remote works with all Lutron residential smart devices, including the Caséta family of products — such as the original smart dimmer, the Diva smart dimmer, the Claro smart switch, the lamp dimmer, and the outdoor smart plug — as well as RadioRA 3 and Homeworks connected lighting control systems. Offering another option for adding points of control, the Pico paddle remote matches the classic style and feel — and the familiar user experience — of the Diva smart dimmer, Claro smart switch, and other paddle-style switches.

"Homeowners are loving the look of our new Diva smart controls and installers appreciate the simplicity of using Pico as a second switch without pulling wires," said Matt Swatsky, Vice President at Lutron. "So, we gave you both – a remote with the utility of Pico and the look of Diva smart."

The Power of the Pico Remote.

The family of Lutron Pico remotes offers homeowners intuitive, flexible control of their Caséta smart light switches, Serena smart shades, fans, Sonos speakers, and more. The wireless devices can be placed on the wall, on a pedestal, or controlled from the hand, and do not require Wi-Fi to function. Add an additional point of control anywhere you want it — no hub, app, or password required — and control multiple dimmers at once, from a single device. With its typical, 10-year battery life, little ongoing maintenance is necessary.

Add a second switch nearly anywhere.

Add a second point of control nearly anywhere you want without cutting holes or pulling wire. The Pico paddle remote can be mounted on any surface, including brick and glass. With a wall bracket and wall plate, it looks and feels like a regular switch — matching the understated, modern aesthetic of the Diva smart dimmer.

The Pico paddle remote will be available online starting today at select retailers, electrical distributors, and A/V and security channels.
