Smartlet: Safer Energy for Modern Homes

Donation protected
Why We Built the Smartlet
Electric outlets have remained largely unchanged for nearly a century, even as our homes and devices have evolved. Traditional outlets can lead to energy waste, safety risks, and vulnerability during power outages. We wanted to create a solution that addresses these challenges while preparing homes for modern energy needs.

Introducing the Smartlet
The Smartlet is an outlet system designed to improve safety, efficiency, and reliability:
  • Safer: Magnetic connections ensure plugs align correctly and reduce the risk of electrical shock.
  • More Efficient: Provides direct DC power to reduce energy loss from AC-DC conversion.
  • Reliable: Features demand control to prioritize essential devices during outages.
  • Compatible: Works with existing devices using an adapter, so you don’t have to replace everything at once.

Key Features
  • Magnetic plug connection for safe, easy use
  • Direct DC power to reduce energy waste
  • Demand control that manages power during blackouts
  • Communication with the power grid for better energy use
  • Voltage negotiation to provide only what’s needed
  • Backwards compatibility through adapters
  • Patent pending design

Why It Matters
  • Can reduce household energy waste by up to 20%
  • Helps prevent full blackouts by managing power demands
  • Supports the transition to more sustainable DC power systems
  • Designed to be practical and easy to adopt in today’s homes
