Smart Switches Singapore – Smart Switches are quickly gaining popularity among homeowners. They replace traditional light switches. You can control lights and other appliances with the touch of a button, through a smartphone app or voice control.

You can also set schedules for your lights and appliances, so they turn on and off automatically at specific times, saving you energy and money on your electricity bill.
Another advantage is their ability to integrate with other smart home devices. With the help of a smart home hub, you can connect your Smart switches to other devices such as thermostats, security cameras, and more, creating a truly connected and automated home. Smart home-related devices are projected to reach US $262.70m in 2024. A big part of this growing acceptance of smart solutions is Smart Switches, which have become an indispensable part of home automation.

Automate your daily tasks and routines using Smart Switches. Some examples include:
1. Scheduling lights to turn on and off at specific times, such as turning on a light in the morning to simulate sunrise or turning off lights at night when everyone is asleep.
2. Integrating Smart Switches with other smart devices, such as a smart thermostat, to automatically adjust the temperature based on whether the lights are on or off.
3. Setting up “scenes” or “routines” that control multiple lights and devices at once, such as turning on all the lights in the living room and adjusting the thermostat to a specific temperature when you say “good morning” to your virtual assistant.
4. Using Smart Switches to control other smart devices, such as a smart lock, to automatically lock the doors when you turn off the lights and leave the house.
5. Automating lights to turn on or off in sequence or in response to certain triggers, such as motion sensors or door/window sensors, to improve security and convenience.
Smart Switches can enhance the security of a house in several ways:
1. With a smart switch, you can control your lights remotely, even when you’re away from home. This allows you to turn lights on and off, giving the appearance that someone is still at home, deterring potential burglars.
2. Programme Smart Switches to activate lights at specific times or based on your location, creating the illusion of activity in the house even when you’re away.
3. Integrate Smart Switches with other smart devices. They include motion sensors, door locks, window sensors and cameras. Automate the light to turn on when motion is detected.
4. Pair security cameras with Koble’s Hera Smart Switch. This allows you to monitor your home remotely, and turn on or off lights if needed.
5. Integrate video doorbell with Koble’s Hera Smart Switch. This allows you to view visitors who are at your doorstep.
All that remains is to learn the important factors to consider before buying and installing your smart switch.
This is arguably the most important factor to consider before investing money in Smart Switches. Make sure it works with an app or is compatible with voice commands or both. Most Smart Switches have both functions but double-check with a smart home specialist to avoid any unfortunate surprises.
Once the operation procedure is clarified, next will be checking for compatibility.
Typically, Smart Switches are purchased with the intention of connecting them to other (existing) smart solutions, such as smart lights, doorbells, and other smart devices. It would be a counterproductive and utter waste of money if the smart switch were not compatible with them. Also, check if it is compatible with your preferred smart hub.
A Smart Switch needs to communicate wirelessly. There are three main connection protocols used in Singapore. ZigBee, Zwave and WiFi.
The Zigbee or Z-wave smart home hub is designed for a wider connection, which makes it suitable for large homes. Zigbee protocol, for instance, is known to have an incredible range of 60 feet and mesh capability. A zigbee hub also has the capability to handle up to 65,000 devices. Wi-Fi Smart Switches should be avoided if possible.
When it comes to installation, hiring a licensed and professional electrician is critical. The Koble team offers the most trustworthy and reliable service complimented by our past customers.
