Why High-End LED Lighting Is Worth It 

LEDs are the new standard in lighting and are already powering most of our lights at home. And while most LED bulbs work like CFL and incandescent bulbs did (but last much longer and save more energy), in recent years, smart LED lights have quickly gained popularity. 

These smart LEDs can be remotely controlled to adjust their color and brightness via an app or even voice command. Off-the-shelf brands like Cree and Philips Hue are popular but can often become more of a hassle than they’re worth. 

The headache comes from relying on an app alone to control your lights. Most DIY smart bulbs require you to connect to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth whenever you want to adjust the settings. If all you want to do is quickly dim the lights, smart bulbs eventually become a pain. 

But there is a pain-free, seamless approach to smart LED lighting: you just need better fixtures and the right control system. Here’s why high-end LED lighting solutions are entirely worth it—and even life-changing—for our clients in Southlake, TX.

What Makes a Smart LED High-Quality? 

Not all smart bulbs are built alike. To make sure you’re investing in a high-end model, ensure your smart lights do the following: 

• Use hardwired or radio frequency (RF) connections for control so you don’t depend on Wi-Fi or Bluetooth
• Can sync different fixtures and brands within one control system
• Can be controlled in multiple ways, whether from the wall keypad, switch, remote, app, or voice control 
• Offer color-tunable technology for warm-to-cool shades of white and colors of the rainbow 

At ComwareAV, we love Lutron’s smart LED fixtures for their incredible color and dimming capabilities. We use control systems by Lutron, Control4, Crestron, or NICE to sync lights and motorized shades to one centralized controller. We can help you find the right control system for your home, depending on your needs. 

The Magic of High-End Lighting Control 

With high-quality smart bulbs and a professionally installed control system, you’ll achieve new lighting wonders at home. Imagine the following for your Texas home: 

• Precise Color & Dimming Control: Sophisticated LEDs from brands like Lutron aren’t limited to a few presets or basic color wheels. You can achieve any shade of light you imagine and dim down to 0.01 percent brightness! 
• All-in-One Control: A professional home automation system lets you mix and match LED brands within the same ecosystem. You don’t need to toggle between different apps and remotes—it’s all in one place for you. 
• Always Connected: You don’t need to wait to connect to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth just to dim the lights. Wired or RF connections promise your smart lights always respond to your commands.
