A Smart Move for Modern Lighting Control at Lumen8
In the world of lighting design, staying ahead of the curve is essential. We recently underwent a change at the Lumen8 showroom, making the shift from Dynalite to Casambi control, with the aim to elevate our showroom’s ambience and functionality.
Understanding the Basics: Dynalite vs. Casambi
Dynalite
Dynalite has long been a trusted name in lighting control, offering reliable solutions with advanced programming capabilities. It’s known for its robust architecture and ability to integrate with various building management systems. However, the complexity of its setup and the requirement for specialized programming and external commissioning can make it less accessible for many users.
Casambi
Casambi, on the other hand, represents a modern approach to lighting control. Utilizing Bluetooth mesh technology, it allows users to control their lighting via a smartphone app. This flexibility, combined with user-friendly interfaces and seamless integration, has made it increasingly popular and is why we decided to make the change.
Why Switch to Casambi?
- Ease of Use
One of the most significant advantages of Casambi is its intuitive app-based control. The ability to create scenes, adjust brightness and with just a few taps empowers users to adapt the lighting to fit different displays or events effortlessly.
- Flexibility and Scalability
Casambi's Bluetooth mesh technology allows for easy scalability. Whether you're adding new fixtures or changing layouts, Casambi can accommodate these changes without the need for complex rewiring. This is particularly beneficial in our dynamic showroom environment where product displays are frequently updated.
- Enhanced Customer Experience
Creating the right ambiance is vital in a showroom. With Casambi, you can tailor the lighting to create mood-setting scenes for events, or adapt to the time of day. This level of control enhances the overall experience and usability of our showroom.
- Remote Management
Casambi offers remote access capabilities, allowing all showroom staff to control lighting from anywhere. We can schedule lighting changes or adjust settings on-the-fly, all from a mobile device.
- Cost-Effective Solution
Transitioning to Casambi has reduced installation complexities and lower maintenance needs, this provides us with long-term savings on both labour and operational costs. The flexibility of the system allows for easy adjustments without the need for professional reprogramming.
At Lumen8 we have staff trained in Casambi products and commissioning, so please get in touch if you would like to discuss how we can integrate Casambi into your next project. We welcome you into our showroom to experience the technology in action.
