I have an old house (built in 1970s) so I am guessing my light switches don’t have modern wiring. I need to check when I get home. I don’t know if/how this impacts which route I should go.

I don’t necessarily care about the ability to change the colors of my light bulbs (although being able to change the temperature between 2700k-6500k would be nice).

I primarily want the ability to turn my lights on/off/dimmed without having to walk to the switch. My house has the light switches in not very convenient places which requires one to walk through dark rooms to turn them on/off which is annoying.

If I do just get light switches, is there a general recommendation? Is Caseta by Lutron a good option or is there something else that is generally recommended?

Lastly, if I wanted to add some sort of TV backlighting, would this potentially require me to get some sort of hub or can this also be controlled through smart switches?

Thanks

    Just ordered a GE CYNC smart dimmer. No neutral. I have 8 led on the circuit so I hope they are not dimly lit. It comes today. Wish me luck. No hub. Figure I will try out 1 switch first.

    I do have other lights that are on smart plugs and those work well.
