HIGH-TECH GADGET PUTS POWER OF
LIGHT IN YOUR HAND
|
  |
If you're the sort of person who gets a kick out of all the hottest new gadgets, or if
you need to buy a gift for someone who does, don't miss the latest in technology for the
home. You and the gadget-lovers on your shopping list won't want to be without a new
device that puts the power of light control in the palm of your hand.
This unique gadget consists of a hand-held infrared wireless remote control plus a dimmer
with a built-in infrared receiver. The dimmer uses existing wiring and easily replaces a
standard light switch.
To control
the lights, you aim the remote at the dimmer on the wall -- transmitting the infrared
signal to adjust the brightness of the lights or turn them off or on. It not only changes
lighting intensity, it can also recall a preset light level and has a fade-to-off feature
so the lights dim gradually as you leave the room.
Called Spacer, this device makes a great gift or a welcome addition to one's own home.

A remote light control is also convenient in the bathroom. You can easily adjust the lights when you're in the tub, or turn the lights low so you won't be jolted by the brightness in the middle of the night. Spacer can be an asset in any room.
Spacer provides added independence for individuals with reduced or limited mobility because they won't have to get up and down to adjust the lights -- or ask someone else to do it for them.
Made by Lutron Electronics Co., Inc., the world leader in lighting controls, Spacer is sold nationwide through lighting showrooms and electrical distributors. For more information about Spacer, visit the Lutron Web site at www.lutron.com .
