It will  be the first AI-powered in-wall smart outlet that analyzes power usage  and creates personalized, easy-to-implement suggestions for consumers,  contractors, business owners, and real estate managers to automatically  power off devices and appliances, cutting excess electricity usage and  helping to save money on electric bills. Currant\u2019s Smart Wall Outlet  will be available in a 15 amp version for homes and a <a href=\"https:\/\/jpelectricalcompany.com\">20 amp outlet<\/a> designed for the commercial market. Both the home and commercial models  can be controlled by the Currant App, Amazon Alexa, or Google Home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Smart Wall Outlet is designed to replace traditional outlets  with duplex tamper-resistant receptacles that can be easily installed in commercial businesses and new construction as well as consumers\u2019  existing homes. Each in-wall unit analyzes real-time electricity usage,  displaying it in intuitive graphs that break down energy consumption and  cost by hour, day, month, or year. Customers can use the Currant App to  monitor anything plugged into the outlet, effectively controlling power running through the outlet to ensure that they\u2019re fully in control of  all their devices and appliances, whether they\u2019re down the street or  across the country. And, like all Currant outlets, Smart Wall Outlet  models are calibrated using high-precision test equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to Smart Wall Outlets, Currant also announced that it has\n added a number of new features to its WiFi Smart Outlets. Available \nJanuary 8, these features include the ability to lock the outlet so it \ncannot be turned on or off except through the app, which is particularly\n useful for parents looking to prevent kids from using certain \nappliances for safety reasons, such as an iron, or who want to set \nlimits on gaming consoles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outlet locking is also valued by people who want to prevent things \nlike a WiFi network from cutting out in the event someone accidentally \nturns it off, or business owners who want to shut off power to specific \noutlets or devices and not enable them to be turned back on from the \noutlet itself. In addition to the ability to lock the outlets, Currant \nwill offer customized alerts that notify people when their rules take \neffect and when devices are using certain levels of power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are on a mission to help reduce the insanely high levels of \nenergy consumption in the United States,\u201d said Hasty Granbery, founder \nand CEO of Currant. \u201cTo that end, we are thrilled to announce our newest\n offering in what will be a long line of energy-saving smart home and \ncommercial products. Currant Smart Outlets will work in essentially \nevery environment \u2014 home or commercial space. We can help anyone cut \nenergy consumption, save money, and make a positive impact on our world \nwithout any inconvenience to their day-to-day lives or activities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currant Outlets run on both WiFi and Bluetooth, assisting with ease \nof setup and control. The Currant Smart Wall Outlets will work \nseamlessly with existing Currant Smart Outlets, creating a Bluetooth \nMesh Network throughout the building that can be used to control any \noutlet within range, enabling control in areas where a WiFi network is \nweak or unavailable. In addition, when several Currant Outlets are used \ntogether, the outlets can prioritize which communication protocol to use\n so only a subset of outlets are using WiFi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Customers can get started with an in-wall outlet within minutes and  easily connect to the Currant App, which is available for iPhone and  Android. The app automatically detects the outlet and displays real-time  information on energy usage. Customers can opt to set outlet-specific  rules right away in order to turn the power on and off according to  their preferences and schedules or they can use it as a normal outlet  before receiving tailored suggestions for usage based on what is plugged  into the outlet, the amount of energy consumed, and any unique usage  patterns for the space.         <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Original Source: https:\/\/www.i4u.com\/2019\/01\/130610\/ces-2019-currant-introduces-first-ai-powered-smart-wall-outlets             <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Original Date: Jan 3 2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Written By:   Luigi Lugmayr <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI moves into your wall power outlet.
