do i need 2 switches? 1 for flood, 1 for spot?

No, the spot and flood come on at same time, it's not wired to where you can turn on just one or the other

No just one switch will do the spot and flood come on together no matter what.

Only if u plan to dismantle and wire the light. If not then no, only one switch will be sufficient.

Hi Tom, That's actually my current setup. I used to have 1 dimmer and 2-regular non-dimmer switches and I replaced one of the non-dimmer switches with Honeywell timer switch. As long as each switches are independent to each other, it should not be an issue. Btw, I'm not a professional electrician so this response is just based on my current home setup. - Joel

The unit is not designed to be broken into 2 deferent components. You would need 2 switches.

You can switch between flood and spot with the button on top, and the light ratchets up and down if that's what you mean.

Nothing needed for second switch. Just remember to leave the second switch in the on position.

It will actually shiw up as 3 devices: À 2 button scene controller and 2 binary switches. Once associated with your controller the two switches will be disassociated with the scene controller buttons. You will have to re-assocuate them with the buttons IF you want to use it like a double switch. It depends on your use case.The directions on how to do this will vary depending on your controller.

yes, but when you're programming them, best to only have 1 plugged in at a time. I've used 2 switches simultaneously under Linux.

I would day it is best to use a relay, unless youuse aheavy dutyswitch. Most switches are not designed to handle a load running through them, even though these lights only use about 5 amps to run both.

Supposedly a spot/flood combo but it behaves more like a flood light than a spot light

This is a two switch minimum. If you do only one it will have an uneven side. If you want only one switch there's other options or just put in the second switch in case you ever need it a a place holder. I installed three but only use two.

yes, I currently have four running on one switch. Check the mfg. website for specific limitations.

Yes it's a switch not splitter so only 1 source will go through at a time and it shouldn't matter if both are on.

I believe there are single switch housings you can get. With this kit you would need the two ends. And put a blank plate over the other unused housing.

Yes, however, you must replace both switches in the 3 way circuit with insteon switches. I do not know if they have to be identical insteon switched. I don't think so.

I believe you would need a switch that works on a four way system. This one works on three way which means two switches. Might be tough to find except at a place that sells to contractors.

It was my son's but from what I saw it was a flood only...he only had an on/off switch. I wonder if a three way switch would make a difference? Or is there a difference?

My switch has one input that can be connected to either the A or the B output; the two outputs cannot be switched "on" simultaneously.
