Turns out the new and old switches work different in 3/4/5-way setups. Now it seems I let the smoke out of a new switch using it the same as the old. Relay switches internally but nothing out the load or traveler terminals. Fawk...

Screw this, I rewired that 3-way back to a standard traveler setup and put manual switches back in. I'll figure it out later.

(turns out that with the old model switch, while I had to re-wire both ends and use neutral on the load end as the common to make it work, the new switch is more like a standard 3-way that just uses the same line-common to load-common remote, traveler and just picks up a neutral from the neutral tie at the line side switch to energize the smarts.

Oh man, what a stupid idiot.

I feel like if I don't put in this smilie, the thread will implode (even though it probably wouldn't). ;)

Night folks

Extra smiley just to be sure

Did I already post the Christmas animals? Sorry if I have.

Ugh, sorry for verticals, I was taking them for Instagram.
