r/Lutron

Under contract to buy a 9,000 sq ft home with Lutron Homeworks system installed in 2001. Obviously want to upgrade the system to be compliant with LED’s and avoid dreaded processors failure that would leave me in the dark. Initial quote to upgrade was almost $300k. Is that quote to be expected? Are their other options such as converting to RA3 that would be less costly? Any other suggestions on how to approach?

Here’s an overview of the equipment for upgrade:

•256 lighting zones

•64 power modules

•8 power panels

•5 LV processor panels

•74 gangs of Keypads

•19 wire landing boards

•5 power supplies

•5 main processors

•3 type A/X communicators

I’m looking to upgrade parts of my house from generic wafer lights to the Lumaris downlights. Basically one room at a time, replacing my ra3 sunnata dimmers with pico switches and keypads. I read that the Lumaris tape light has Natural Show where the tunable white adjusts based on the sun. Is this correct? Or is the RA3 version only day/night mode? If correct, are the downlights also supported??
