Product Information

All British energy suppliers must aim to install a smart meter in every home as part of a government programme to replace older energy meters. You can still determine the energy usage of certain appliances by looking for spikes in your power consumption when you have electricity-hungry devices running, but this isn't always accurate. Efficient Technical Support: You’ll get access to limitless technical support to assist you at every phase, from installation to usage. Plus, for our international MAXCIO family, you can also use the MAXCIO app to access a multilingual instruction manual. Installing your smart light switches by yourself will save you money and a call to an electrician. For the average person, it can be a little challenging as there are several steps to the process and it involves learning a little about light switch terminology and function as well as working with a variety of tools. Regardless, once you’ve done it once or twice, you should have the hang of it and you’ll feel like a DIY boss.

Effortless pairing: Pair it to devices with unprecedented ease and connect to networks using an unrivaled simplified process.

When buying, one of the most important features to consider is proper calibration, which will ensure your readings are correct. Energy monitors should be consistent with the manufacturer's own kilowatt-hour readings for various appliances. You should also be able to get consistent results when using other monitors side by side. If you're trying to figure out the energy usage of one appliance or power strip, a plug-in energy monitor might be best to use instead. If you'd prefer to shop in person, you can sometimes find plug-in energy monitors at your local hardware store. Can I get a free energy monitor? Before you install your smart light switches, you’ll need to make sure you have the following tools and equipment:There is a lot to IFTTT and it definitely deserves a whole blog of its own, but in a nutshell, IFTTT is what allows you to add true automation and customization to your smart home, which your smart light switches are an integral part of.

If you want to find out how much something costs per use, plug in your appliance or electronics into the monitor and set your unit cost. Then use as normal (eg a single kettle boil), see the result in either kilowatt-hours or cost, then reset the monitor before your next read. After getting a few results, you can calculate the average cost from there. Use your flat-head screwdriver, a coin, or a knife to open the light switch’s wall panel. There should just be one screw on the top and bottom. Once you’ve removed the screws, the panel should come off without any resistance. Asides from proper calibration, two other useful features to have are a built-in display and being able to input your energy unit price directly into the monitor. Having these features ensures you to get a direct reading on how much something costs to run. This can save you from having to do more maths, always a plus. While it is more expensive than the average energy monitor, we splurged on this one because RS Components has a good reputation for its monitors being well calibrated.You can measure an ongoing read on something that is always plugged in or turned on, such as a refrigerator, desktop computer or TV.

Getting readings this way can help you determine whether it's worth using something in longer, larger uses. It can also show you the difference in modes like a lower-temperature wash, eco or economy modes, and so on. Using an energy monitor is one of the best ways to clearly ascertain how much electricity you're using on individual appliances —hopefully helping you to work out where money can be saved in the long run.

Are smart light switches worth it?

If you want to access the smart features that smart switches have to offer, like mood presets and timer functions, it will need a means to communicate with your smartphone or smart hub system. That doesn’t necessarily mean a WiFi connection - smart light switches can also use Bluetooth. If there is no WiFi or Bluetooth connection, it will still work as a normal light switch. One-for-many Group Control: Using this innovative feature, you can designate a group to control multiple devices simultaneously to achieve unparalleled convenience.
