Multiple control gestures map to actions via a required Tapo Hub and the free Tapo app. Battery-powered design and flexible mounting enable wireless placement indoors with more than one year of battery life.
Instant, tactile lighting control – with tap, double tap and rotate inputs
Three distinct input gestures are recognised and mapped to actions through the hub and app, allowing separate commands for single tap, double tap and rotation-based dimming. The hub translates each gesture into on/off commands, preset scenes or brightness adjustments.
Change brightness or trigger a preset scene from a bedside table or hallway without reaching for a phone.
Wire-free placement – with battery-powered design rated for 1+ year
Battery-powered electronics remove the need for hard wiring and are specified to deliver more than one year of battery life under typical use. Flexible mounting options let the control unit be fixed with adhesive or screws.
Place the control wherever it is most useful, keeping lighting controls within easy reach and avoiding electrician work.
Smart routines and alerts – thanks to Tapo Hub connectivity
Connecting via a Tapo Hub (H100 or H200) enables pairing with Tapo smart lights, mapping gestures to preset scenes and routing notifications and hub alarm triggers through the Tapo app. Full smart features require the hub to operate.
Automate scenes and receive instant notifications when a button is pressed, useful for routines, convenience and basic event alerts.
