Leviton has announced the introduction of the Decora Smart Wi-Fi 2nd Gen Scene Controller Switch, a significant enhancement to its My Leviton platform and Decora Smart Wi-Fi product line.

The new device features a keypad with three user-customisable buttons to control room scenes or whole house lighting activities, as well as a built-in smart switch that can control general purpose lighting and loads up to 15A.

Ideal for entryways, bedrooms and kitchens, homeowners can simply replace their existing standard light switch and gain three Internet of Things (IoT) scene control buttons, plus a fully capable smart switch for connected lights.

Residents have the option of using the My Leviton app or the Apple Home app to set up the top three buttons with custom scenes and automation activities. For example, control multiple Decora Smart Wi–Fi devices together using commands such as “All Off”, “Movie Time”, “Party Mode”, or “Game Night”.

Users can also personalise their scene buttons by ordering custom engraved buttons (available in the U.S. only) through the My Leviton app. Custom scene buttons are available in six colour options, including black and gray, to provide high–end lighting control system functionality and design at affordable everyday prices.

“The Scene Controller Switch works with the My Leviton app and Decora Smart Wi-Fi devices to create a wireless home lighting control system with no complex programming required,” explained James Shurte, senior product manager, Leviton. “Flexible multi-button control options for room scenes or whole house lighting activities, plus the ability to optionally manage HomeKit Scenes and Accessories, makes the Scene Controller Switch an incredibly capable solution for one-touch control of a room or the entire home.”
