LAS VEGAS, NV, January 13, 2012
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Electronic House (EH) announced that SmartLabs' OutletLinc Dimmer - INSTEON Remote Control Dimmer has been awarded its Product of the Year in the Lighting Controllers Category.
Each year, EH kicks off the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) with its awards that are selected by a panel of industry leaders and the Editors of Electronic House and CE Pro. SmartLabs has garnered product of the year awards from EH in the past for its HouseLinc - INSTEON Desktop Software (2006) and RemoteLinc - INSTEON Wireless Remote Control (2007).
"We are very excited to be recognized by Electronic House," commented Mike Scharnagl, Director of Marketing at SmartLabs. "Electronic House truly covers all aspects of the electronics industry, so for their panel and editors to recognize OutletLinc Dimmer among the best products of the year is tremendous."
OutletLinc Dimmer can be remotely activated from any INSTEON controller, providing a clean, low-profile alternative to the standard plug-in modules. OutletLinc Dimmer uses a simple magnetic key to only provide power (and dimming) to lamps that you want to control. The key easily attaches to any lamp plug with no cutting of wires or modifications. The bottom outlet functions as a standard receptacle, rated at 15 Amps. Both top and bottom outlets are tamper resistant.
The simple-to-use OutletLinc Dimmer has advanced features like an adjustable ramp rate that slowly brings the lamp on and a preset dim level that stores your preferred choice of 32 brightness levels when turning the lamp on initially. The product is made to be installed in place of any wall receptacle and controls incandescent loads up to 300 Watts.
The OutletLinc Dimmer is available through retailers such as Smarthome.com and Amazon.com for $59.99.
