C by GE's Smart Home Innovations Enhance Comfort, Safety & Security

At CES 2020, GE Lighting will be introducing its first-ever smart home innovations with C by GE's Hubless Three-Wire Smart Switch and two Hubless Dimmer models. These smart home solutions are designed to enhance comfort, safety and security in the home, and work seamlessly alongside existing C by GE products.

The industry-first C by GE Hubless Three-Wire Smart Switch and two Hubless Dimmer models set themselves apart as products that do not need an additional product, like a hub, in order to interact with Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa. As well as being able to give the switches voice commands, users may also use touch or app controls to effortlessly control aspects of the home.
