GE / Jasco In-Wall Switch Model 45856

@OnlyWK1, ok that makes sense. Zwave isn’t as bad as it seems as long as you properly add/remove devices and have a healthy mesh.

I would recommend using the GE Bulb code as you’ve done, maybe rename it to be more relevant to your device, and use the Pollster SmartApp. That’s what I use for all my GE bulbs and I set polling to 1 minute. Works really great until ST folks can develop a device type specific to your switch.

[OBSOLETE] "Pollster" - A SmartThings Polling Daemon

Please note that excessive polling of some devices (particularly Zigbee and Z-Wave) may cause network congestion and lead to degraded system performance. Therefore, polling rate faster than 5 minutes is not recommended. The author of this software bears no responsibility for your system performance. Use it at your own risk. I don’t claim originality of the idea, but I needed one badly for some of my projects and didn’t find anything among the shared apps. So there it is… Many SmartThings devices rely on polling to periodically update their status. These devices have ‘polling’ capability and provide poll() function that the SmartThings polling engine calls approximately once every 10 minutes. Unfortunately, SmartThings polling engine proved to be unreliable and sometimes it stops working…
