Use the “Scheduler”, “Save Energy” and “Timer” functions to optimize switching on and off hours and reduce the energy consumption and related costs.

Please refer to the website of your Electricity Provider. Enter the applicable tariffs in the “Reports” section of the myStrom App in order to get a cost estimate as close as possible to reality.

Smart Meters are usually installed in the electrical box or in the basement and help you better understand your total energy consumption. This information is mostly useful for Utility companies, allowing them to better plan and control their energy production.
As a customer, thanks to Smart Metering, you can get to know the total energy consumption of your home – and this can help you adapt your behaviour by allowing you to personally exercise influence on the devices in your household.
The limits of Smart Metering lie exactly there – it does not include any automatisms for switching on and off times that can contribute to savings.
You just need to configure your myStrom WiFi Bulbs once and the savings will happen automatically. Thanks to the myStrom App you have location- and time-independent control over all connected devices.

WiFi Bulbs can make believe that someone is in your house when you’re away. – This is the best proven way to prevent break-ins. You just need to activate the “Vacation Mode” in the myStrom App. This will switch the Bulbs randomly on and off during the evening and the night.

Unscrew your WiFi Bulb then screw it back in. The Bulb should now be discoverable.
If this does not work, please reset the WiFi Bulb:
Switch the Bulb off and on 5x. Please note that
the Bulb is on for 2 seconds before it is turned off again. By the 5th time it’s switched on, the Reset is con rmed by the white blinking.
