The market demand has started the boom of smart home switches. Traditional switches are extremely inconvenient to use while smart home switches can completely break the constraints of time and space to easily achieve lighting control for the whole family through remote or centralized control. We will introduce the differences between smart home switches and traditional switches, you need to pay attention to those tips when purchase smart wireless switches.
The light switch is one of the most frequently used devices in the smart home. No matter what kind of home, the demand for light control is essential. Smart lighting refers to the use of computers, wireless communication data transmission and other technologies to implement home lighting telemetry, remote control and telecontrol control systems to realize intelligent home control of lighting equipment. While smart switch can realize remote control, timing control and scene setting functions; Energy saving, comfortable and other efficient characteristics can also be achieved.
What should I pay attention when choosing a smart wireless switch? We have compiled the following information for you.
Currently there are two types of smart wireless switches on the market, one is a push type, and the other is a touch type. The touch wireless switch requires a battery to be installed in it. Because the switch consumes very low power, there is no need to worry about running out of power. While push wireless switch will have battery and kinetic energy conversion. The kinetic energy conversion wireless switch converts kinetic energy into electrical energy at the moment of pressing. From the appearance point of view, the touch-type feels more technical and concise.
Which wireless smart switch to choose depends on your personal preferences.
As for how to choose, let us tell you. The first is to listen to the sound! Press the switch function button lightly, the lighter the sound, the smoother the feel, the better the rhythm is, the better the quality is; On the contrary, the sound is not pure when the opening and closing, the sound with a half-way intermittent state is of poor quality.
The second is to look at the appearance of smart switch:
A good product has a smooth appearance, no burrs, bright color and its materials using high-quality abs + PC material, good flame retardancy and not fragile. Although the surface of some products is bright and clean, it seems to be coated with a layer of oil, but the color is pale and the texture is coarse. The flame retardancy of such materials is not good. You can use fire to test its flame retardancy. If the light goes out quickly, it is good plastic, otherwise it is poor plastic.
The third is to see the certificate of smart switch:
Product certification, product manual, good wireless switch life can be up to 60,000 to 70,000 times, a button battery can be used for several years.
In addition, because the smart wireless switch is not used alone, it is generally used together with the smart switch controller. The wireless switch controls the smart switch controller through wireless signals to realize the access of circuit path. So when you choose, you need to see what the control principle is.
Some wireless switches are controlled by infrared, but infrared control has a disadvantage because infrared will be blocked by objects, it can't be used across the wall. When choose, you must consider clearly. It is recommended to choose 2.4Ghz wireless technology products with short-range wireless transmission technology, for the kind of products can be used through walls and the signal is more stable.
