DESLOC is gearing up to introduce the "first self-sustained perovskite solar door lock" at CES 2026.
Dubbed the V150 Plus, this product incorporates a perovskite-based solar cell directly into its design to provide electrical power. A key technical claim is that this solar technology can generate energy from low levels of ambient light, such as that found on a covered porch. The product is said to "redefine what it means to be truly solar-powered."
DESLOC's aim with this solar door lock design was to create a self-sufficient device that operates without the need for battery replacements. By offering a perpetually powered solution, the brand provides peace of mind while aligning with the core smart home principle of automation and reduced hassle.
