Introduction

In today’s world, energy conservation is not just a trend but a necessity. With rising energy costs and the increasing awareness of our environmental footprint, it’s crucial to find ways to reduce energy consumption. Smart home technology offers a powerful solution to this challenge. Dive into this article, you’ll get to know how smart devices help you save energy and reduce costs to elevate your smart living.

Smart Bulbs: Timed Switches and Smart Scene for Energy Saving

SONOFF’s smart bulbs are designed to optimize your lighting needs. By utilizing timed switches and creating smart scenes, you can ensure that your lights are only on when needed. This reduces unnecessary energy consumption and helps lower your electricity bills. Imagine walking into a room and having the lights automatically adjust to your preferred setting, or having them turn off when you leave. With smart bulbs, you can effortlessly manage your home’s lighting and save energy.

Smart Plugs with Power Monitoring

Our smart plugs go beyond simply turning devices on and off. Some come with built-in power monitoring capabilities, allowing you to see the daily energy consumption of connected devices. You can identify which devices consume the most power and make informed decisions to reduce usage. The smart plugs support Alexa dashboards, providing you with easy access to energy consumption data and enabling you to set timers for better energy management.

Real-Time Energy Tracking with Power Meter Switch

SONOFF’s smart power meter switches are perfect for tracking the energy consumption of your appliances in real time. Through our App, you can view energy consumption charts for the past six months and set daily or monthly energy consumption thresholds. When these thresholds are reached, the app will send you notifications, helping you stay on top of your energy usage. Like our smart plugs, these switches also support Alexa dashboards and timed switches for added convenience.

Non-contact Current Transformer Devices with Overload Protection

For those who want a non-contact way to monitor energy consumption, our devices that measure AC current are an excellent choice. Equipped with independent non-contact CT (Current Transformer) sensors, these devices can monitor energy consumption without interfering with your existing setup. With a maximum capacity of 100A, they provide accurate and reliable data on your energy usage. Additionally, they feature overload protection to prevent potential damage to your electrical system. These devices also support third-party platforms such as Home Assistant, Alexa, iHost, and eWeLink Web, providing flexible integration with your existing smart home setup.

Setting Smart Scenes for Automated Energy Saving

One of the key features of SONOFF’s smart devices is the ability to create smart scenes. For example, you can create a scene where if a particular device’s energy consumption exceeds a preset threshold, it will automatically shut off. This smart automation prevents unnecessary power consumption, ensuring that your devices only use the energy they need and helping you reduce both waste and costs.

Bathroom Light Automation with Door Sensors:

Imagine stepping out of a relaxing shower and not having to worry about turning off the bathroom lights. With SONOFF door sensor, you can easily install it on the bathroom door and set an automatic scene for it and the light. Once you close the door after your shower, the lights will automatically turn off. This simple automation helps you save energy effortlessly, reducing electricity waste without even lifting a finger.

Hallway Motion Detection for Hands-Free Lighting:

Dark hallways can be a hassle, especially when your hands are full. By installing a motion sensor in the hallway, you can create an automatic smart scene where the lights automatically turn on when the sensor detects your movement. To conserve energy, you can set the lights to stay on for only 10 seconds. This feature not only frees your hands but also ensures that lights are used only when needed, optimizing energy efficiency.

Kitchen Appliance Shutdown with a Smart Plug:

Left appliances running in the kitchen? With SONOFF’s smart plugs, you can set up an automation where, after a certain period of inactivity, kitchen appliances like coffee makers or microwaves are automatically turned off. For example, after preparing breakfast, if no motion is detected in the kitchen for 15 minutes, the plug can cut off power to save energy and ensure safety.

Air Conditioner Auto-Shutdown Based on Sensors:

Save energy by connecting your air conditioner to a smart plug, temperature and humidity sensor, and human presence sensor. You can set a scene where if the room temperature reaches your desired level and no one is detected in the room for more than 10 minutes, the air conditioner will automatically turn off. This prevents unnecessary cooling and reduces electricity bills without compromising comfort.
