Old house new owner fluorescent smart switch replacement
Hello,
New owner of an old house.
I would like to replace this switch with a modern smart switch.
In the garage, there are five fixtures in the ceiling with very long fluorescent tubes.
There is one switch on the wall. I have not found another switch that operates these lights, so I assume this is not a 3 way scenario.
I do not recognize this type of switch. I did a Google image on it, but was inconclusive.
I assume this was installed about 20 years ago.
It does not toggle, but rather is a push on off.
I’m not sure what the red light is for. Could it be an old automated switch like an old X10 that I found online?
Is there anything unique about this switch that is required by fluorescent lights?
Can I use a recent Lutron Model PD-6ANS or a recent Lutron Caseta Claro?
The Claro says - Controls up to 5A of LED, ELV, MLV, or fluorescent lighting, as well as 3A fan.
The PD-6ANS is slightly higher rated; it allows loads up to 6 Amps or 720 Watts for incandescent, LED, or fluorescent lighting; or 3.6 Amps or 430 Watts for loads comprised of inductive motors.
Thank you
