Retrotouch Friends of Hue Smart Kinetic Switch (Black / White – Plain Glass / With Chrome Trim)

Description

Retrotouch Friends of Hue smart kinetic switches can be used to replace existing light switches, and also as a wireless, battery-free switch that can be mounted on any indoor or outdoor wall, wherever it’s most convenient for daily usage.

These kinetic switches don’t require batteries or hardwired power cables, yet they’re just as sturdy and dependable as traditional wired switches.

To address the issue of Philips Hue lights losing their smart functions when a light switch is manually flicked off, the Retrotouch Friends of Hue smart switches will function as regular light switches from the wall, but the lighting circuit will remain on, ensuring that Hue is always ready and working when you need it.

App*, voice*, motion sensor*, and HomeKit* functionality (all supported via the Philips Hue Bridge), as well as manual control from the wall, are all seamlessly integrated.

Matching plugs and accessories are available to complement the Retrotouch Friends of Hue switches, giving any area a cohesive aesthetic. Double and single plug and USB outlets, TV and telephone connections, and a smart button plate for the Hue Button are among the options available.

Features

• Installed anywhere, the battery-free wireless switch can control up to 50 Philips Hue lights and lamps at the same time
• Makes sure the Hue lighting system is constantly on and operating with motion and app controls
• With EnOcean technology, the Switch connects directly to the Philips Hue Bridge, eliminating the need for a separate Smart Home Hub

*Please Note: If you are purchasing a Friends of Hue switch for a new Philips Hue installation rather than an existing one, remember to add the Philips Hue Bridge UK/EU accessory. These Friends of Hue switches connect directly to the Philips Hue Bridge, eliminating the need for a separate Smart Home Hub. Certain features require the Philips Hue Bridge accessory to function.
