Cygnett release new Smart Power Board and LED Strip for Australian Consumers

You may remember my post from earlier this year where I reviewed the Cygnett Smart Starter Kit and explored how it is a game-changer for HomeKit here in Australia. While I’m happy to say that Cygnett has upped their game this month as they have just released a new Smart Power Board and LED Strip. The devices are available AUD$79.95 and AUD$69.95, respectively, and are all confirmed to be able to work with Apple HomeKit.

The Cygnett Smart Wi-Fi Power Board contains 4 outlets and 2 USB ports with LED indicators. Using a smart device or voice assistant, you can turn on/off Wi-Fi, which is provided with surge protection.

Features:

  • Consists of 4 outlets and 2 USB ports
  • Each port has LED indicators
  • Surge protection
  • Master on/off switch
  • Turn on/off using your smart device or voice assistant (HomeKit, Alexa, or Google)
  • 1m lead length
  • 2 × 2.1A total USB-A ports

The Cygnett Smart Wi-Fi LED Light Strip has a strong adhesive and a dramatic design statement to hide under shelves. It creates vivid colours and soft whites that accentuate the beauty.

Features

  • 2m long LED strip
  • 1000lm bright
  • Strong 3m adhesive
  • Dramatic design statement to hide under shelves or behind your TV
  • White colour temperature adjustment
  • Creates vivid colours and soft whites
  • Includes power adapter

There is also a 1M Extension Strip for the LED Strip which can be purchased separately for AUD$39.95 boasting the following features:

  • Add a 1m extension to your main 2M Smart Light strip
  • Super bright 1000 lm
  • White colour temperature adjustment
  • Creates vivid colours and soft whites for accenting details
  • White colour temp adjustment (Cool/Warm & Day/Night)
  • Strong 3M adhesive

Personally, I think this is a great move on Cygnett’s part offering alternatives to popular brands such as Lifx with their Z LED Light Strip that starts at AUD$125 or Philips Hue Bluetooth Light Strip that starts at AUD$134, as well as offering the first Apple HomeKit Power Board to Australian consumers.

Cygnett is upping their game in the smart home environment and is becoming one of the popular competitors and you can bet your bottom dollar that I’ll be purchasing these very soon to review!
