Retrofit Guide - Replacing Old Lighting Systems with Wireless Lighting Systems

Lighting systems are an integral part of modern life. Still struggling with the placement of switches? Converting switch locations in an old home is always a headache, often because it pulls one hair and moves the whole body. As technology continues to advance, old lighting systems will soon be obsolete. Fortunately, we can turn old lighting systems into wireless lighting systems through retrofitting.

Here are the exact steps we provide:

Step 1: Shopping for Wireless Lighting System Equipment

First, we need to purchase wireless lighting system equipment. These devices include wireless switches, receivers, fixtures, and so on. We need to make sure that the equipment we buy is compatible with our existing lighting system and will meet our needs. When choosing wireless switches, try to refer to as many as possible, and the retail products need to pay more attention to whether there are qualified quality standards and relatively comprehensive solutions. In general, the switch and receiver should use the same brand, but different brands have different prices to choose from, pay attention to the power and voltage of the product for these issues. As long as the voltage is within the required range, the lamps can generally be used, and there are also high-voltage and low-voltage products for you to buy.

Step 2: Installation of wireless lighting system equipment

Once the wireless lighting system equipment has been purchased, we will need to install it on the existing lighting system. The exact steps for installation may vary from device to device, but most devices come with instructions. If you are simply converting an open-wire lighting system to a wireless system, it is very simple. Simply remove the excess wire, tap into the controller at the light, and pair it up. But switches that are concealed wired to begin with may require the use of other solutions. Note: Be sure to have a professional do the installation or you could easily get electrocuted and be in danger.

Step 3: Configure the wireless lighting system

After installing the device, we need to configure it. This includes pairing the wireless switch with the receiver, setting the brightness and color of the fixtures, and so on. These steps may also vary from device to device, but in general, we can do the configuration through the app or remote control. The pairing method and process usually come with an instruction manual, or if not you can learn to pair via YouTube videos.

Step 4: Enjoy the convenience of a wireless lighting system

Once the configuration is done, we can enjoy the convenience of the wireless lighting system. We can control the lights via a wireless switch, APP, or remote control, adjust the brightness and color, and even set the timer on/off and other functions. Wireless lights can also be controlled by one button on your phone, allowing you to experience a new era of mobile office! Wireless Light is a wearable device that connects to a smartphone and automatically runs apps to help users work anywhere, anytime. With the Wireless Light, one is able to easily install it anywhere in the home.

By retrofitting the old lighting system into a wireless lighting system, we can not only enjoy the convenience of modern technology but also save the cost of replacing the lighting system.
