WLAN socket for smart outdoor lighting
At Christmas time, you sit down in the living room and let your gaze wander over the garden or patio… and you don’t see a thing – because once again, you have forgotten to switch on the light chains outside.
With the practical and easy-to-install retrofit solutions from Hama, you can add WiFi to many of your devices – without having to think about suitable cabling during home renovation or construction.
Whether it’s Christmas lighting, summer LED lampions or a lawn sprinkler: With the garden socket, the devices can be conveniently controlled by app and using your voice, without having to leave the comfort of your sofa.
The easy way to a WiFi-controlled garden
The WLAN-enabled outdoor socket establishes a direct connection to the router without an additional hub. No building measures or additional devices are required, saving you time and money. Within just a few minutes, you have integrated your outdoor lighting or your gardening equipment into the WLAN, and can immerse yourself in your very individual light worlds via app and voice control, or run your lawn sprinkler in the early hours of the morning in summer.
Protection against water splashes thanks to IP44
Downpours or water splashes from a lawn sprinkler or from jumping into a pool won’t cause the garden socket any harm. The WLAN socket with its rubberised lid is protected from splashing water in accordance with protection class IP44. So when it’s raining, there’s no need to worry about a short circuit, or to unplug or cover up the WLAN socket.
Customisable combinations for your smart home
The Hama Smart Home app makes the smart home possible: All Hama smart home products can be connected with one another. You can thus combine a variety of products and enjoy the convenience that smart equipment offers, in addition to special effects. Do you also have smart home products from other manufacturers? They, too, can be linked with all compatible smart home products via Amazon’s Alexa and the Google Assistant.
Control the outdoor socket via app and voice
Enjoy your magical Christmas lighting in the garden, without having to go out into the cold to switch it on or off. The times for the outdoor lighting to switch on or back off are simply set using the app. There’s a shower in the morning so you don’t need to use the lawn sprinkler? Then simply switch it off from the office using the Hama Smart Home app.
Voice control using Amazon’s Alexa or the Google Assistant enables convenient operation of the devices connected to the WLAN outdoor socket. It also means, for example, easier garden maintenance for people with physical disabilities and the elderly.
Be creative with the Hama Smart Home app
You have acquired a taste for smart home technology, and WLAN control of your garden lighting is no longer enough for you? With the Hama Smart Home app, you can link all smart home products from Hama with one another by creating scenes and automations. In addition to exceptional effects, simple everyday manual actions can be automated with smart home systems.
Automations link smart home products
Combination with motion detector: Link the outdoor lighting connected to the WLAN socket to a motion detector on your patio. When someone goes through the patio door, the light automatically switches on.
Scenes make life better and easier
Garden lighting at sunset: Let your garden shine at sunset by using the Hama Smart Home app to create a scene with the WiFi outdoor socket and, for example, your lampion light chain. You don’t have to think about switching on the light chain – whether in winter or in summer – the app does this for you. Consequently, there’s no need to use timers (and no need to adjust them).
Increased contact protection for more safety
The increased protection against contact prevents unintentional contact with live components – for example, if children poke with a screwdriver or knitting needle, or animals poke with their claws. Therefore, you can let children and animals romp in the garden without any concerns.
An eye on energy usage and costs thanks to the app
Using the free app, you can have push notifications sent to your smartphone when a device that you are operating via the WLAN socket is switched on. You thus have a full overview of the current status and always know – even when you’re away from home – which device is currently switched on, even though it should actually be switched off. You can then conveniently switch off these devices using the app.
But the app also enables you to turn the socket into a timer. So if you would like the patio lighting to be on only from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm, you can set this with the timer. This saves time and money.
