Complicated wiring? Multiple wireless transmitters can command a single receiver. This means switches in different locations can turn the same electrical load on or off. Switching like this is often used in stairwells or rooms where two or more switches are used to turn one light on or off. Achieving this result with wired three-way or four-way switches requires a higher level of electrical knowledge and more time for wiring and installation. Remodeling. Wireless light switches eliminate the wire from the light to the switch location. This is useful in remodeling situations where new wiring can be a hassle. Rather than tearing down a wall to gain access to the wires, a wireless switch can be used. This avoids any need to access wires and makes remodeling fast and simple. Log homes. Another use for wireless switches is in log homes, where electrical installations can be difficult because of the amount of routing and drilling that would otherwise be…

Which RGB LED controller should I use? What’s the right choice for my project? When it comes to controlling your RGB LED strip, there is a range of options – each offering a choice of many different controllers. If you decide to control your RGB LED strip via the DMX protocol, for example, you can use any DMX LED controller. This will give you a choice of hundreds of control units. While there’s no definitive ‘best’ way to manage RGB LED strip installations in general, there will certainly be the best and most cost-effective choice for your particular project. The right RGB LED controller for you will largely depend on two factors: 1. The size of your project If you have a small project (using just a single transformer), this simplifies your choice of RGB LED controller options. You should avoid systems like DMX, 0-10v, or DALI controllers – as these are…

Home security systems have multiple layers of devices that work together to keep your home safe. Door and window sensors are the mainstays of a good home security system, as most burglars try to gain entry through doors and windows. If the sensor is triggered, it will send a signal to the security system hub via RF, Zigbee, or WiFi. Ebelong wireless self-powered door and window sensors that communicate using RF use no battery and have a longer life than traditional sensors. How do door and window sensors work? – When the security system is armed, the sensor communicates with the central hub or control panel to signal that the doors and windows are secure. If the door or window is open, the button on the sensor is pressed, which the control panel interprets as a security breach. Depending on the type of system, there may be an audible alarm, a central…

Builders and homeowners today are increasingly interested in installing home technologies, and for good reason: integrated smart home systems are more capable and easier to use than ever before. For professional smart home integrators, every home buyer and home builder is a potential client. Pros know, however, that knowledge about smart home technologies varies widely, from those who envision a plethora of automated systems all working together on a custom schedule to those who believe asking a voice-activated device what the weather’s like is the height of technological innovation. So how do we convey the message that a truly useful smart home system requires professional design and installation when potential clients can buy something like a $100 smart lighting kit at a hardware store? It all comes down to explaining the real-life experience, instead of praising technical features. Everyone Wants To Be Comfortable       User experience is the most important aspect…

At present, the number of intelligent gateways is increasing by tens of millions or even hundreds of millions every year, and many problems are encountered with rapid development. Smart gateways generally suffer from security, wall penetration, middleware compatibility, and stability issues. 1. Security: The account is stolen, the smart gateway has security loopholes, and the network is hacked. 2. Through the wall: Wi-Fi cannot be fully covered in the use space. 3. Middleware compatibility: The intelligent gateway has developed into an important control unit, which requires compatibility with various terminal devices. 4. Stability: Once the smart terminal is started, it is generally not powered off. If there is a sudden large amount of traffic, whether the stability of the network can be guaranteed will inevitably affect the customer experience. With the rapid development of smart homes, more and more terminal electronic products will be connected to the network. The smart…
