THIRDREALITY has introduced the Smart Switch MT1, a new type of smart switch that uses battery power and Matter over Thread technology. The switch is made for homes that use either rocker or toggle light switches. The main draw for this product is that it does not require any electrical rewiring or an electrician for installation. You only need a screwdriver to put it in place, and it mounts directly over your existing switch. This simple setup means that people can upgrade their homes to smart controls without the hassle of tearing into walls or changing house wiring.
The Smart Switch MT1 works with major smart home systems including Apple Home, Google Home, SmartThings, Homey, and Home Assistant, as long as your system supports Matter protocol and has a Thread Border Router. The switch does not depend on Wi-Fi to operate and connects straight to devices like the Apple HomePod mini. You do not need a separate hub, which can save money and reduce the number of devices in your home. Once set up, the switch can be used to turn lights and appliances on and off with voice commands, through apps, or by using automation routines.
Battery life is another feature of the Smart Switch MT1. The switch runs on two AAA batteries and is designed to last for about a year before the batteries need to be changed. This long battery life means less worry about maintenance and fewer interruptions in smart home controls. Since it works by mechanically moving the switch underneath, it can be used with most standard light switches in American homes.
For people with busy lifestyles, the Smart Switch MT1 can help simplify daily routines. For example, some users set it so that lights turn on when they come home and turn off when they leave. This can help with energy savings and adds convenience. There is no delay between giving a command and the switch responding, which can be important in a busy household. The product is especially helpful for those who want smart home features but do not want to deal with complicated installation.
THIRDREALITY makes smart home products that are meant to be both easy to use and secure. The company focuses on making products that meet the needs of regular users who want to add smart features to their homes without a lot of trouble. The Smart Switch MT1 is now for sale online, and it fits in with THIRDREALITY’s goal of making smart home upgrades simple and open to more people.
