Clever: WLAN socket with Matter Smart Home
Smart retrofitting can be so simple: a WLAN socket makes things smart like never before. TV, standard lamp, fan, radio - easily switch them on or off without having to fumble around behind cabinets, sofas and shelves to reach the switch. And it gets even easier, because our smart socket is equipped with the Matter standard.
Matter standard: smart for all Smart Home devices
Are you a committed Apple fan and use Apple Home? Is Samsung Smart Things your go-to? Is Amazon Alexa your favourite standard? Great news: you can now also use our WLAN socket regardless of your preferred manufacturer. With Matter Smart Home, it doesn't matter which Smart Home system you use - you can set up your smart devices in any app and you don't need any special additional apps. On the smart socket you will find a QR code: you simply need to scan this and the WLAN socket will connect directly to the Matter Smart Home.
Smartphones running iOS operating systems 16.1 and later or Android version 13 or later have this function integrated automatically. Devices and suppliers that have previously worked with a gateway will continue to require this, such as Apple HomePod, Google Nest Hub. The Smart Home devices from Hama of course work gateway-free, as before, so without an additional hub.
Smart timer
In the Hama Home app, you can program your devices via the WLAN socket so that they switch on and off at whatever time or interval you choose without you having to give them another thought.
- Have there been some break-ins in your neighbourhood while you're on holiday? Then simply set a time interval for the standard lamp and TV on your smartphone from your holiday destination to simulate your presence. So would-be burglars are scared away, even though you're actually lying under a palm tree reading your favourite book.
- Hot nights and the fan runs and runs and runs ... So to stop you from having to get up in the middle of the night or on a cooler morning to switch it off, you can also use the Smart Home socket as a timer for it. Simply program in the Hama Home app when the fan is to switch on and off - and you can enjoy your cool rooms without having to think about it any more.
- In a very classical way, lamps and so on that are connected to the WLAN socket can also be linked to sunrise or sunset: at sunrise, the Christmas light chain in the window switches off, and just in time for sunset, the Christmas lights shine bright again - and all totally dynamically, depending on your smartphone location.
Smart support for energy saving
Once electrical devices are switched on, they usually stay that way even though you don't actually need them. Maybe you're grabbing a quick snack between episodes while watching TV - but the lamp in the kitchen is still on long after you've digested your snack. You actually only need the standard lamp behind the sofa for reading, but when you switch the TV on, the standard lamp remains switched on. And usually, you're already too comfortable to get up and switch the lights off. Well now you don't have to! Just grab your mobile phone and switch the light off or issue a voice command via Amazon Alexa, for example. Done and dusted, and no energy wasted. The WLAN socket can also be controlled via the app while you're out and about if you forgot to switch a device off, for instance. Conveniently save energy with the smart socket.
Energy monitoring - every Watt at a glance
Would you like to know how much electricity your refrigerator really consumes at a certain cooling temperature? Or would you like to track the consumption of your washing machine in the various programmes? With the integrated power consumption meter, you can detect unnecessary power guzzlers and also log the wattage consumed by the connected devices over weeks and months. Does the eco mode on your dishwasher really make sense? How much power does your television actually consume on standby? You have an overview of every Watt.
Do you have a photovoltaic system on your roof or a balcony power station? With the WLAN socket, you can always keep an eye on which appliance is drawing how much of the electricity currently being generated. Depending on the weather, switch the socket on or off spontaneously - depending on whether you are generating your own electricity or not.
Radio-controlled socket deluxe
Whether by app or voice control, and no matter which voice assistant you prefer - with the WLAN socket, you can conveniently manage connected devices via remote control. So if you don't want to get up off the sofa to switch the TV on and the standard lamp off, simply tell Alexa what to do or do it via the app on your mobile phone or tablet. Since the smart version of the radio-controlled socket is not limited to a specific range, you can also control the socket while you're out and about via your mobile phone, whether it be while you're on the bus on the way home or soaking up some rays in Spain. This makes the smart socket a huge help to the elderly or people with physical disabilities too. If you're not so good on your feet, are sick or injured, then devices and lights can still be controlled from your bed and sofa. Smart right down the line!
Smart power
The WLAN socket supports up to 3.680 W - which means your powerful devices can be controlled without any problems or danger. If you use powerful spotlights around your home or use growth lamps to grow your plants, then this Smart Home socket is perfect for you. Devices that remain in standby, like a TV and also some washing machines, can also be switched off completely with the smart socket.
Control the smart socket via the app
When it's 40 degrees in the shade, is it too hot for you to even get up to switch the fan on? If so, use the Hama Home app and stay cool with just a swipe. It is just as easy to set a time control via the app - i.e. when exact;y the fan should switch on and off.
Control the smart socket via voice
Are you snuggling up at home for a wellness weekend and it's time for some relaxing water splashing while the face mask takes effect? Then a brief voice command is all it takes to switch the indoor fountain on and immerse yourself in relaxation. Had enough splashing? Simply switch the indoor fountain off again in the same way, e.g. by asking Alexa to do it.
Get creative with the Hama Home app
Have you acquired a smart taste and the WLAN control of one device is no longer enough for you? With the Hama Home app, you can link all Hama Smart Home products together and thus create scenes and automations. In addition to extraordinary effects, simple, everyday actions can also be automated with Smart Home systems.
Scenes and automations make your everyday life so much more beautiful and comfortable – try it out for yourself, there are no limits to your imagination.
Compatibility: versatile networking
Hama's Smart Home products are compatible with Alexa, OK Google and Siri Shortcuts. Expand your Smart Home with different products, enjoy full functionality and create a wide variety of scenes and automations.
Scenes for a more beautiful life
Create an atmospheric lighting ambience with a TV and WLAN socket in combination with a smart WLAN LED lamp: when you switch the TV on via the smart socket, the WLAN LED lamp in the living room is automatically dimmed and the series binge-watching can begin. You can also use the integrated current measurement to create smart scenes: for example, you can be notified via an app when the washing machine's power consumption drops below 10 Watts - meaning it no longer needs electricity and is done. In the same way, you could let your living room lamp flash briefly - your signal that you can hang up the washing.
Automations with other Smart Home products
Pure atmosphere: connect a standard lamp to the WLAN socket. Whenever you dim the standard lamp, the smart garden spotlight on the lawn starts its magical light show in the evening.
Geofencing
Geofencing makes smart control of the smart socket even easier: all you need is the location function of your smartphone to switch the WLAN socket on and off if you are within a radius that you define (at least 100 m) of your property when entering or leaving.
