Wifi and Wireless Switch Controls
Modern lighting systems can be controlled without traditional wiring by using WiFi or Bluetooth-enabled switches and wireless companion switches. These systems allow you to control your lights from multiple locations—or directly from your phone—without needing to run new wires through your walls.
At Star Electric, we install smart switch systems that include a main receiver switch and wireless companion switches that can be mounted anywhere, giving you full control and flexibility.

Main Smart Switch (Receiver)
This switch is wired into your electrical system and directly controls the light.

Wireless Companion Switch
This switch is not wired. It communicates wirelessly with the main switch and can be mounted anywhere.

Wireless Communication
The switches connect using radio signal, Bluetooth, or WiFi depending on the system.

Phone Integration
Many systems allow you to control the lights through an app on your phone for added convenience.
