iDevices wireless Instant Switch makes connected homes simple
iDevices has introduced a new product that makes it easy to add smart connectivity to one's home. The iDevices Instant Switch is a wireless wall switch that doesn't require any home wiring or other installation troubles — rather, consumers just stick it to the wall thanks to Stick-on Command adhesive. The device is also provided with a wall plate to disguise it as an ordinary light switch. The batteries powering the device last two years without needing replaced.
We've seen other products similar to this device. iDevices Instant Switch is powered by batteries, can be placed anywhere you'd like (as long as the adhesive can stick to it, that is), and uses Bluetooth to connect to related devices. The switch works with Android, Alexa, and HomeKit; it can connect with any iDevices lighting or power items.
The Instant Switch can be paired with the wired iDevices Wall Switch to, says the company, create 'an instant 3-way control configuration.' This makes it easier to control a particular room or other things from wherever you'd like. Company CEO Chris Allen goes on to example this, saying:
The whole point of a smart home is that it's customized to your life and intended to make it easier. Instant Switch gives users the ability to choose how they want to lay out control points in their home, regardless of where original outlets or switches are located. Our belief is you shouldn't have to permanently modify your home to get the control you desire.
The Instant Switch will be available some time this summer for $49.95 USD.
