Best Smart Light Switch for Renters — No WiFi, No Wiring, No Drilling

Renting an apartment shouldn’t mean giving up smart lighting. But if you’ve ever asked yourself “Can I install a smart switch in my rental?” — you’re not alone. Most smart switches assume you can cut into walls, rewire circuits, and leave holes behind.

Why Traditional Smart Switches Don't Work for Renters

Here’s what makes most options unsuitable for apartments:

  • ❌ Require neutral wires — many older rentals don’t have them
  • ❌ Involve drilling holes, which landlords may forbid
  • ❌ Use apps or cloud accounts that stay behind after you move
  • ❌ Hard to uninstall or reuse in a new place

AuriLink Was Designed With Renters in Mind
