I’d like to control the lighting at home while I’m out
How could a smart home product help you?
“Smart bulbs will enable me to set the lights to come on and off at my convenience, giving me peace of mind concerning home security and energy costs whilst out.”
Garry, EE Store Customer
Whether you want to be out and about care free or you're just worried about the energy usage of your home, smart lighting is key!
Smart security such as CCTV and alarms are an obvious option and a must, however, lighting can also play a huge part in keeping your home safe. You can deter burglars by switching your smart bulbs on via your smartphone, giving the impression you’re home even if you’re not. You can also set schedules and timers, so your smart lighting turns on and off automatically (handy if you always fall asleep with the lamp on), and even if you want the porch light to turn on when it gets dark.
Smart lighting can also save you on your energy bills, and with the increase in pricing, anything that can help is a must! Do you have someone in your home that leaves on the lights when they leave the room? Smart lighting can allow for lights to turn off automatically, so energy isn’t wasted! So, whether you want to schedule your smart lighting to turn on at a certain time of day, or you’d like to control them remotely using your smartphone, you’ll get the peace of mind you’re after.
Smart light bulbs are also perfect for home entertainment! Did someone say party at your house? Whether you want white, blue, or red lighting, smart bulbs come with an endless range of colours to suit whatever mood you’re in.
