Smart Lighting, Music & Plugs: Just Add Meat

Picture this: the coals are glowing, the wors is sizzling, and your mates are arriving. The only thing missing is the perfect vibe. Forget fiddling with dodgy extension cords and a tinny phone speaker. This year, you’re levelling up your entertainment game with smart lighting, music, and plugs. It’s the ultimate tech upgrade for any South African home, turning your standard get-together into an unforgettable, high-tech experience. It's surprisingly easy to set up.

Set the Scene with Smart Lighting 💡

The first step to creating a legendary atmosphere is mastering the lighting. A single, harsh outdoor bulb just won’t cut it anymore. With a smart lighting setup, you can paint your entertainment area with millions of colours, all controlled from your phone. Imagine bathing your patio in a warm, welcoming amber as guests arrive, then switching to Springbok green and gold when the rugby starts.

You can use smart LED bulbs in existing fittings or get creative with flexible RGB light strips under counters, along pathways, or behind your PC setup. By linking them to your home’s Wi-Fi, you can set schedules, dim the lights for a more relaxed mood, or even sync them to your music. Getting started with a powerful, versatile smart home setup has never been more accessible.

Curate the Perfect Playlist with Smart Music 🎶

Next up: the sound. A good braai needs a great playlist, but nobody wants to be chained to the speaker. With modern wireless speakers, you can place high-quality sound exactly where you need it, with zero cable clutter.

Create a shared playlist and let your friends add their favourite tracks. The best part? You can control the volume and skip songs from anywhere… whether you’re greeting people at the gate or turning the chops on the grid. Integrating smart music into your setup means the tunes flow as freely as the conversation, creating a seamless and immersive audio backdrop for your entire event.

The Unsung Heroes: Why You Need Smart Plugs

So you’ve got your lights and music sorted. But what about all your other "dumb" appliances? This is where the unsung hero of any smart home comes in: the smart plug. These brilliant little gadgets plug into any standard wall socket, allowing you to turn any connected device on or off remotely.

Have some awesome old-school string lights? Plug them into a smart plug. Annoying mosquitos ruining the vibe? Connect a bug zapper and schedule it to turn on automatically at dusk. You can even use them to manage your PC peripherals or charge devices without worrying about over-juicing them. Smart plugs are the affordable, versatile glue that ties your entire smart ecosystem together, bringing convenience and control to every corner of your home. Explore Evetech’s wide range of smart home appliances to find the perfect fit.

Tying It All Together: Your Command Centre ✨

The real magic happens when your smart lighting, music, and plugs work together as one cohesive system. Using an app on your phone, or even better, your watch, you can create "scenes" or "routines" for any occasion.

Imagine tapping a single "Braai Time" button on your screen. Instantly, your garden lights switch to your chosen colour scheme, your "Lekker Tunes" playlist starts streaming, and the bug zapper kicks in. No more running around flipping switches. You can manage the entire atmosphere right from your wrist with a quick glance at your smart watch, leaving you more time to focus on what’s important: perfect steaks and good company.
