A smarter and more connected home experience is right in the palm of your hand
A smarter and more connected home experience is right in the palm of your hand according to Lutron Electronics, Coopersburg, Pa., a manufacturer of energy-saving, wireless lighting and motorized shade controls. The company announced support of several devices for the Lutron Smart Bridge Pro and the Lutron app — its new wireless, connected home solution for controlling lights, shades, and temperature.
The Lutron Smart Bridge Pro and app connect Lutron’s Caséta® Wireless dimmers, Pico® wireless remote controls, Serena™ and Sivoia® QS Triathlon® remote-controlled shades, and other third-party devices, while providing convenient home control from any iOS or Android™-based smart phone or tablet, or a remote control.
The Lutron Smart Bridge Pro, which uses Lutron’s proprietary ClearConnect® Wireless technology, plugs easily and directly into a home’s Wi-Fi router. Installed and set up in less than 30 minutes, the product sends wireless, radio frequency (RF) communication signals to compatible devices inside the home.
Lutron has announced the addition of Lutron Smart Bridge Pro-Compatible Products:
“Dealers can now deliver a more robust, yet affordable, connected home experience,” said New Business Alliances Director Mark Jenner at Lutron. “Aligning with these brands enhances Lutron’s connected home experience with added security, convenience and comfort,” he said.
The Lutron Smart Bridge Pro is available now with a $200 suggested list price, while the Lutron Caséta Wireless package, featuring a Pico remote control with a dimmer (either wall or lamp), has a suggested list price of $80. Serena remote controlled shades start at $349.
