Before you buy
What do you need to make it work?
Caseta Smart Hub (L-BDG2-WH) or Smart Hub PRO is required for app control, scheduling, scenes, and every ecosystem integration (Alexa, Google Home, Apple Home, SmartThings, Home Assistant). Without a hub it still works as a normal wall dimmer: slider at the wall, wired 3-way, and up to 10 directly paired Pico remotes. Hub price is not published on an official Lutron page.[2][3][7][25][27][29][33][34][44][46]

Lutron Caséta Smart Hub
Works through the Caséta Smart Hub, which is required and sold separately — this dimmer speaks Lutron's proprietary Clear Connect RF and has no radio of its own. With the hub, Google Home does the whole job: on, off, dim and scenes by voice. Google's own list of devices that Google Home routines can control names this dimmer by model, for on, off and dimming.[12][18][31][36][40][45][49]

Lutron Caséta Smart Hub
Official Lutron-SmartThings integration. Lutron says it needs three things: a Lutron Smart Hub or Smart Hub PRO, at least one Lutron dimmer or shade, and a SmartThings hub of any generation. Lutron's SmartThings page describes SmartThings routines that turn Caséta lights on and off, so on/off works; it does not mention dimming, so brightness in SmartThings is unconfirmed.[4][8][18][25][29][31][34][36][45][46][50][51]

Plans and ongoing costs[2][7][17]
✓ Works without a subscription: Yes.
Vendor account required: Optional — there is a documented way to use it without one.[10][19][20][32][37][41][43][47]
No subscription is mentioned anywhere in Lutron's Caseta app, hub, or integration documentation reviewed on support.lutron.com and casetawireless.com.
Maintenance and offline use[7]
- Works without the internet: Yes — the core function runs on the device or your home network. A vendor cloud may still be involved in remote access.[7][19][22][28][41][43]
- No neutral wire required, and no bypass device either (Lutron support, DVRF-6L article). Loads: 150 W dimmable LED (minimum 1 bulb), 600 W incandescent/halogen (minimum 25 W); not rated for ELV/MLV. 3-way via mechanical toggle, Claro Smart Accessory Switch (DVRF-AS), or Pico remotes. Devices talk Clear Connect RF to the hub, not WiFi; core control is local, while remote app access and Alexa/Google voice run through cloud services.
- Security updates: No security-update support date is on record for this model yet. We haven't yet checked whether Lutron publishes one, so this is a gap in our research — not a statement about the manufacturer.
Who it's for
Households without neutral wires at the switch box, and anyone who wants a familiar slider dimmer that keeps working normally at the wall while a single hub handles app, voice, and Home Assistant integration. Not a fit for buyers avoiding a hub purchase or wanting Matter-native gear.

Under Other, verbatim: "Samsung SmartThings — Control lights and shades from the SmartThings app and add more automation to your home.", plus Ring, IFTTT, XFINITY Home and Wink. The page's own framing is system-level — "Caséta expands beyond lighting control. It works with other connected home solutions" — and it names no model numbers anywhere.

Lutron's own Caseta specification document, on the site that opens for us, was read in full: it confirms the Diva needs no neutral wire and states its load limits — up to 150 W of LED with at least one bulb, and up to 600 W of incandescent or halogen with at least 25 W, with lower figures in a multi-gang box. What it does not address is how long Lutron intends to keep the service behind the hub running, which is the one fact on this record still waiting on a page.
