Wireless lighting in the apartment

Technical progress makes life easier. Surely, many before and did not realize that it would be possible to create lighting in an apartment or house without unnecessary wires. However, now wireless lighting in the apartment is finding more and more fans.

Special features

Wireless lighting allows you to take a fresh look at the issue of control of light. Outwardly, such a system looks like a set of special equipment. After its installation, you will be able to control the lighting devices with greater comfort than when using a conventional switch.

Control is carried out using a special control panel. Externally, it looks like a normal TV remote control or split-system (or as a stationary switch).

You can choose both options - according to your desire.

A wireless lighting system consists of a radio relay and a switch (remote control). When receiving a signal, the radio relay opens or closes an electrical circuit - when you send it using the remote control.The radio relay must be installed closer to the light device - or inside, if there is room for this. If we talk about spot lighting, the radio relay can be installed between the main and stretch ceilings.

Pressing the switch button creates an electrical impulse (using a built-in generator). Then it is converted into a radio signal, which picks up the radio relay.

If the system can not only turn the light on and off, but also make the lighting brighter or dimmer, then a dimmer will also be included in the kit.
