Customer Review: Great switch, allows for Title-24 compliance.
Summary: 5 Stars
Before I begin, let me say that if you're going to do any sort of wiring project it's up to you to learn about applicable codes and regulations, from reliable sources. Do the job right. Get the needed permits and inspections. Get an electrician, if you have to.
I live in Alameda County, California, where we have to be Title 24 compliant. According to the city permit desk, and as I understand it, Title 24 dictates that all lighting in bedrooms etc. needs to be energy efficient. It also indicates that for a lighting fixture to be considered "energy efficient" it cannot be possible to easily swap out the efficient bulbs (LED, CFL, etc.) with something less efficient (incandescent). The upshot is that currently most of the lighting fixtures you purchase at the major home improvement centers cannot be legally installed in your home. Why? Because it's possible to remove the CFLs that come with the fixture, and use incandescent bulbs.
Fortunately, there's a way. Title 24 also indicates that any lighting fixture can be used if it is either (1) on a dimmer, or (2) on a manual-on occupancy sensor.
My wife and I were selecting ceiling fan/light fixtures for installation in our home. When I found out about Title 24 from the city permit desk, I was worried because the ceiling fan/light combos my wife had purchased at the local home improvement store were not Title 24 compliant (nothing they sold was), and she really wanted *those* fans and lights.
This switch saved the project. I purchased several of them, and wired them to the fan's light kits. This made the whole thing compliant, and they passed inspection. Installation of the switch is easy--just make sure to read the directions. Be aware that the switch takes up more space (volume) in the box than a regular toggle-type switch, so if your box is crowded you may have to install a larger box. Also, as this is an occupancy sensor it needs to be able to "see" most of the room to work as intended. Again, this is a *manual-on* occupancy sensor switch. The only way to turn the light on is to push the button. It will turn off automatically if no movement is detected for a period of time (so don't sit too still!).
The switches are nice. They don't really stand out, and after a few days we forgot all about them. The button has an LED on it, which makes it easy to find the switch in the dark. They seem to be well-built, so unless you're really whacking the button, it should last a while.
One more thing to be aware of: even when the switch is "off" there is still voltage on the hot switched wire. It's probably very low current (I didn't touch it to find out!) as it's not enough to light the lights.

Even with the best of intentions, it's often easy to forget to turn off the lights before leaving a room, which wastes energy and increases utility costs. The IPP15 Decora Manual-On Occupancy Sensor helps solve this problem by automatically turning lights off when motion is not detected in the coverage area for a set period of time.
Saves Energy, Lowers Utility Bills, and Helps the Environment
For a quick, low-cost, and energy-saving upgrade in your home, simply replace a standard light switch--where a neutral wire is present--with the IPP15. It will reduce power usage, lower energy bills, and help improve the environment by automatically turning lights off when a room is unoccupied. No need to worry about lights that were left on, because the occupancy sensor will turn the lights off for you.
About PIR Technology
The IPP15 uses passive infrared (PIR) detection technology via a segmented Fresnel lens to monitor a room for occupancy. This specialized lens divides the field of view into sensor zones and detects the movement of heat-emitting bodies. After the switch is manually turned ON, when a person passes into a sensor zone, the sensor detects motion and keeps the lights on.
The lights will remain on as long as there is an occupant moving through the sensor zones--even the slightest body movement will be detected. When the space being monitored by the sensor is unoccupied for a preset time interval, the sensor automatically switches off the lights.
Easy-to-Install, Low-Profile Design
Featuring a low-profile design that eliminates the obtrusive, scanning-device look of other monitors, this 15A-120VAC sensor offers simple push-button operation and is easy to install. It can be used in either a single-pole installation or in a three-way installation with an IPP0R Sensor Remote or a VP0SR Vizia + Switch Remote (sold separately).
Compliancy and Warranty Information
UL listed and CSA certified, The IPP15 Decora Manual-ON Occupancy Sensor complies with the California Title 24 Energy Code. It is backed by a five-year limited warranty.
