WS300 Z-Wave Smart Switch
Smart. Secure. Exceptionally Capable.
The WS300 Z-Wave Smart Switch goes beyond basic lighting control—designed with powerful automation, advanced customization, and accessibility in mind. Whether you're turning lights on and off or triggering complex smart home scenes, WS300 delivers unmatched performance with full Z-Wave compatibility.
Why WS300 Stands Out
- Visual Intelligence: A programmable RGB LED indicator provides instant visual feedback. Use custom colors and blinking alerts to reflect system status, security events, holidays, and more. Colors include red, orange, yellow, green, teal, cyan, blue, magenta, pink and white + 1 user-adjustable custom color.
- Advanced Scene Control: Launch unique automations (or scenes) using multi-tap (1-5 taps) or press-and-hold paddle gestures. Perfect for controlling multiple devices or automations with a single switch.
- Smart Bulb Mode: Decouple the load control to use WS300 as a scene controller only, ideal for setups with smart bulbs.
- Accessibility-Friendly: New paddle toggle mode allows any press—top or bottom—to control the lights, simplifying manual use.
Main Features
- Versatile Control: Handles resistive loads up to 15A, incandescent up to 1250W, and motors up to 1/2 HP.
- Universal Compatibility: Works with any Z-Wave hub or software, including HomeSeer, Home Assistant, and others.
- Smart bulb feature decouples load control and allows the WS300 to be used exclusively as a controller.
- Paddle toggle feature allows any paddle press (top or bottom) to be used to turn lights on and off. This feature provides easier manual operation for users with accessibility issues.
- Instant Status Reporting: Reflects real-time status changes for reliable automations.
- Secure Connectivity: Supports Z-Wave S2 Security for encrypted, secure communication.
- Z-Wave Repeater: Strengthens your smart home mesh network.
- 3-Way Options: Works in both wired and wireless 3-way configurations. Note that the older WA100 accessory switch is not supported. Any standard wall switch may be used as an accessory switch.
- Simple Installation: Screw terminals for quick and secure setup.
LED Indicator Modes
- Normal Mode: Reflects on/off state with 10 standard colors and 1 customizable color. Great for mood lighting or festive events.
- Status Mode: Use the LED as a smart notifier—yellow for open garage door, red blinking for smoke alerts, and more. Automatically reverts to normal mode when no triggers are active.

SmartThings hubs do not support the advanced features of the WS300.
Does the WS300 support Z-Wave Long Range?
Does the WS300 support Z-Wave Long Range?
Yes. The WS300 uses Z-Wave 800 Series technology and supports Z-Wave Long Range (Z-Wave LR). Z-Wave LR can provide substantially greater range than conventional Z-Wave when supported by the controller and network.

Working great! I love the multi-tap capability which gives me a lot of flexibility for automations in HomeAssistant. The LED indicator is nice too. I'm using it to indicate if any doors are left open in our home.
I have been waiting for HomeSeer to offer a replacement for the WS200. The WS300 is just what I needed. Hopefully, HomeSeer will soon have a new dimmer to go along with this switch.
