SYLVANIA Lighting by LEDVANCE Revolutionizing Smart Lighting with New Name, Enhanced Products Starting at Under $12

Even Easier Now to Have a Smart Home or Business that Helps Save Energy
and Create a Better Quality of Life

WILMINGTON, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#HomeAutomation–Lighting leader LEDVANCE, maker of SYLVANIA general lighting products
in North America, was the first to offer a family of cost-effective,
energy-saving LED lighting products that last up to 10 years for inside
and outside your home (11,000 hours (L70) in
businesses). The company is now growing the SYLVANIA
10-Year (Contractor Series) LED Portfolio by adding
cost-effective smart lighting. These are perfect for those that want to
test out having a Smart Home but have been hesitant because of costs.
The company is also upgrading its SYLVANIA LIGHTIFY®
smart lighting portfolio with improved technology for better reliability
and a new name – SYLVANIA SMART+™ – to make it
even easier to build a smart home or business. The new SYLVANIA SMART+
A19
60 Watt Replacement, BR30
and Wet
Rated PAR38 LED products deliver a soft white 2700K or 3000K
light, can be controlled and dimmed via a variety of ways, and have an
MSRP of $11.99, $14.99 and $19.99 respectively which is a savings of up
to 50 percent compared to previous versions. SYLVANIA SMART+
lighting products are compatible with existing systems. They are
available now on Amazon and through commercial channels and will be at
major retailers online and in-store nationwide in the near future.

LEDVANCE has one of the broadest portfolio of indoor and outdoor smart
lighting products and accessories that allow users to have even more
convenient control of their lighting and electronics, optimize their
environments, improve efficiency, and help save time and energy. With
SYLVANIA SMART+ lighting products, you can change the look
and feel of a room to suit your mood or whatever you need to accomplish.
This can all be done with your smartphone, tablet, or wireless switch or
sensor. Another benefit is setting up schedules to turn lights on and
off while you’re on vacation or for when you get home from work.

The eighth annual SYLVANIA Socket Survey, a nationwide measure of public
attitudes about energy-efficient lighting and awareness of
lighting trends, found lighting to be one of the top forms of smart
technology Americans own, with a 40 percent increase since 2015. The
results also showed more than 60 percent of Americans believe smart
lighting fits their lifestyle, 55 percent confirmed they’re likely to
purchase smart lighting when they need new bulbs, and 76 percent of
Americans agree smart light bulbs will eventually replace regular light
bulbs.

“In our latest survey, 80 percent of Americans say there is a space in
the home that could benefit from smart lighting. To help make this a
reality, we have been redesigning our smart lighting products to make
them even more affordable, but without sacrificing on quality. With
today’s announcement, we are making it even easier to have a smart home
that can help save energy and make our lives easier,” said Aaron Ganick,
global head of Smart Business, LEDVANCE.

Ganick continued, “We are working closely with our retail and ecosystem
partners to transition all SYLVANIA LIGHTIFY products to reflect the new
SYLVANIA SMART+ brand name and technology. During this
transition, you may see both SYLVANIA SMART+ and SYLVANIA
LIGHTIFY in the market. Because these new products are backwards
compatible, you will still be able to use them with our many compatible
ecosystems.”

Unlike other offerings, these SYLVANIA SMART+ lighting
products use the ZigBee Home Automation standard, which means that out
of the box they will work with your favorite brand of home automation
ecosystems. For more information, visit www.sylvania.com/smartlighting.
