Eve is out with its third-gen HomeKit Light Switch today with two notable upgrades – Thread support and compatibility with 3-way switch setups by just adding one of the new switches. Read on for all the details on this handy future-ready smart home light switch.
Eve launched its third-gen Light Switch today and shared details in a press release. Thread connectivity makes devices faster, more reliable, secure, and easy to use. Notably, this is Eve’s 15th product with Thread support.
And a big selling point of the new Light Switch is you can pair it with a standard switch in a 3-way setup. Many smart switches require both switches wired as a 3-way to both be replaced. But with the Eve Light Switch, you can upgrade the whole 3-way setup for just $49.99.
