Drayton launches Wiser Plug to give homeowners remote control

Drayton, part of Schneider Electric, has unveiled the new Wiser Plug – allowing homeowners to remotely control any appliance plugged into it.

The plug, which is the latest addition to the Wiser range, can be controlled using either the Wiser Heat app or voice control, thanks to integration with the Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.

The Wiser Plug has a built-in range extender enabling connectivity to devices further away from the Heat Hub.

This is ideal for larger homes and multi-floor properties, helping the signal to reach connected devices such as Wiser Radiator Thermostats.

Integration with the Wiser Heat app means that any appliance plugged into the Wiser Plug can be synced with features such as Away Mode.

Scheduling is easy, with the ability to set up to eight events per day, seven days a week.

Set up is simple too, with commissioning via the Wiser Heat app. As it’s a buildable system, there is the ability to add up to 10 plugs – either all at once or individually over time to spread the cost.

Mikael Eliaeson, Product Manager at Drayton, said: “The launch of the Wiser Plug is a huge milestone for us, as it broadens our Wiser range to control other home electrical appliances, not just heating.

“For those already using Wiser it’s a great add-on product, or if a customer is considering ‘going smart’, the selection of affordable products available in the Wiser range make it a great option.

“Our research shows that over half of all Wiser customers would be interested in the Wiser Plug, so it’s an easy upsell for installers too, with quick and easy installation.”

The Wiser Plug is available from 25th June. To pre-order go to http://amzn.eu/1ka0qmH.
