I have probably 40 or 50 Leviton Zwave (Vizia RF) light switches in my home of all different varieties (120W, magnetic dimmers, etc). I have had them working for about 15 months now, and at various times, I have had two of them just die on me. One continued to work as a switch but was unable to communicate via zwave anymore (I couldn't remove it or re-add it to the network -- the zwave chip just stopped working altogether). The other one has stopped working entirely (the led light underneath it went dead, and it doesn't turn on/off the light at all anymore).
Is this happening to others? I'm concerned that a ~5% failure rate after 1 year is pretty bad. I sent this first failure back to Leviton and they shipped me a new one for free. I intend to do the same thing with the second one, but this is getting old. What have others found?
