Hi, What—
Please have a look at the guide. It is a roundup of all manufacturers in the lighting-control space and there is no special treatment for Lutron whatsoever, except for a full-page ad.
The guide was assembled by CE Pro editors; the sponsorship was after-the-fact.
Thanks for your interest.
This was a good “Quick Guide to Lighting Control Vendors” - not so much an Ultimate Guide to Lighting Control. Would like to have seen a rundown that addressed product architecture (i.e. panelized vs. local load control), control protocol (i.e. proprietary, UPB, ZigBee, Z-Wave, etc.), third party integration, etc.

You forgot the disclaimer on this one.
*This advertisment for Lutron was likely paid for in full or in part by monies generated from suing non dealers in an effort to target their competition.
How can you have an unbiased lighting control guy paid for by a Lighting company that will do anything to be at the top?
