Does the Verve Design wall light have a manual switch?

Hi Guys,

I'm looking at the below.

Verve Design 40W Grid Connect Smart Interior Wall Light With Smart Globe

Does this have a mounted manual switch to operate, is it a touch lamp too?

Thanks,

Lee

Hello @Lee777 

I've had a good look and there are no indications that the Verve Design 40W Grid Connect Smart Interior Wall Light With Smart Globe has a mounted manual switch. There is also no mention of it having a touch to operate feature. This device will require you to attach it to a wall switch if you wish to manually turn it off and on. Just a friendly reminder that any electrical work must be carried out by a licensed electrician for safety and compliance.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Hi @Lee777,

It is neither of the above, you use the app to turn the light ON/OFF

However... you can add a manual switch.

From memory that requires a hub which I think has been discontinued and your only option maybe the Arlec Grid Connect Smart Home Control Kit @ $89 which ends up like $150 plus electrician to install. That's a lot of $$$ to add a switch and that's one reason why I don't do Grid Connect stuff and also the limited availability of devices.

Cheers
