Ikea Expands HomeKit Lighting

IKEA has released a few new devices as part of its own intelligent lighting solution. There are three new series, in different colours and designs. The lamps can also be integrated into Apple HomeKit via the IKEA TRÅDFRI Gateway.

Silverglans for the bathroom

First off, the Silverglans series. The light strips come in various lengths, and are available in white or anthracite casings, and are intended for the bathroom.

Individually, the strips start at a length of 40cm from 15€. In a set with a light bar, driver and remote control, prices start at 57.99€.

Mittled for the kitchen

Next is Mittled. This series consists of light strips and spots in white or aluminium, which are particularly suitable for illuminating kitchen countertops.

Prices start at 12€ for a single spot or 15€ for a light bar. Incidentally, within the Mittled range, IKEA also sells light bars with motion detectors for drawers. However, according to IKEA, these cannot be connected to the gateway.

Skydrag for wardrobe and kitchen

Skydrag was also developed for use in the kitchen but should provide good light in a wardrobe. This is made possible by an integrated motion detector, which can automatically turn on the light when the cabinet door is opened.

Individual light strips are available in white or black, in lengths of between 40cm to 80cm starting from 12€. The set consists of a light bar, driver and remote control, prices start at 51.98€.
