Every now and then, something new and wonderful gets invented. And for a time, it can be great. Serving immediate wants and needs. However, soon people realize it’s missing something. There’s a shortcoming, and that product stops meeting the wants, needs and satisfactions of consumers.  

Like switch-controlled electrical wall outlets, for example. Too often their intended convenience is limited to just one cycle of use. When you directly turn off the bedside lamp, for example, the convenience of the wall switch is lost. Same thing in the reverse; leave the wall switch off, and you can’t turn on lamp from its own switch. The convenience of control is lost. 

There’s a new device that can overcome those limitations, though, and that can offer many other benefits, too. 

The Synchronized Lamp Control System consists of at least two electrical receptacles, one controlled socket and one free socket. The wall tap includes plugs that allow it to be plugged into a switch-controlled or split switch-controlled wall socket or smart plug. 

In addition to their sockets, both the base and second control units include USB charging ports and power buttons. The unit’s can include an internal wireless communication protocol, which can allow communication with each other wirelessly.

With this Synchronized Lamp Control System (which can be used with much more than just lamps), the convenience of control in electrical power provision is constant, and from multiple points, too. It also extends the functions of this concept to a much more modernized format, serving multiple needs in the process. 

The Synchronized Lamp Control System is compatible with dimmable lamps and todays modernized world of smart plugs control by a mobile app and infrared-using remote controlled plugs.

There’s a narrowed and desirable consumer group that can be targeted with this product, and who can easily afford it, as well. 

Please read on to learn more about the Synchronized Lamp Control System, which your company is invited to include in its product line.

The Synchronized Lamp Control System improves the intended benefits 

of switch-controlled wall outlets.

• The field of electricity and electrical implements for household use has continued through recent history to develop in function, safety, and convenience, with standout improvements that range from circuit breakers to GFCIs and to switch-controlled wall outlets. 

• This latter improvement of switch-controlled wall outlets was a big step. It allowed a wall switch to control a wall socket placed elsewhere in the same room. You can turn on an item powered by a wall outlet, such as a lamp, from its on/off switch. When you leave the room, you can turn the lamp off via the wall switch. No need to wander back to the lamp itself; just flip the wall switch. 

• Unfortunately, that convenience is only of a one-cycle variety. Let’s say that a lamp sits upon your bedside nightstand. You turn it off manually from its on/off switch before you retire for the evening. You wake up the next morning in a sunlit room and there’s no need for the lamp, so its power switch doesn’t get turned back on. However, when you return to the room that evening, when there’s no sunlight illuminating it, you need that lamp. The wall switch won’t turn it on though, because the lamp was turned off from its own power switch. 

• So, what happened to all that convenience, you wonder as you stumble through the unlit room to find the lamp, banging your shins on furniture in the process. 

• It also happens in reverse, too. You can’t turn on the lamp from its power switch because the wall switch is in the off position. It creates a cycle that demands you still only use one switch to operate the light. 

• The Synchronized Lamp Control System, however, broadens that cycle, and allows it to continue uninterrupted no matter which control get used – the wall switch or the power button or the independent lamp button on the Synchronized Lamp Control System.  

• It lets anything receiving power from a switch-controlled wall outlet to be operated from two and even more locations. It eliminates the need to revert back to the last switch used. 

• By allowing this control from multiple locations, the Synchronized Lamp Control System ensures that the desired benefits of switch-controlled wall outlets can always be realized. 

     The Synchronized Lamp Control Switch offers additional benefits to switch-controlled           

      Wall outlets.

• In today’s modern world are two power outlets enough? Is only one switch-controlled wall outlet all you really need? Not even close. 

• The Synchronized Lamp Control System provides several switch-controlled and free outlets, though, as well as other new features and benefits. 

• It offers multiple sockets – two on the base unit that connects to a grounded electrical receptacle, another two on the second control unit, and more units can be added, all of which may communicate by wire or wirelessly. 

• Each unit even includes lighting, allowing it to be easily visible, and to serve as a pleasant nightlight. 

• The new Synchronized Lamp Control System offers a notable safety factor to any room its installed when considering the hazards of navigating a dark room in search of a light switch.

• The control units include their own power buttons, one for control of all items connected to the system and one for independent control of the electrical items plugged into them. 

• Additionally, the control units have frictional plates on their back planes, ensuring secure placement, and include eyelets that allow the units to be mounted. 

• The new Synchronized Lamp Control System extends the benefits of switch-controlled wall outlets to many other electrically-powered items, and offers new benefits, too. 

The Synchronized Lamp Control System improves switch-controlled wall outlets 

to meet modern needs.

• Improvements to electrical outlets didn’t stop with switch-controlled wall outlets. Those devices now have their own improvements, in fact. For example, some include remote controls, and others can be operated by with a smartphone app. 

• The Synchronized Lamp Control System is compatible with both of these improvements, along with an additional one of modernization, too.

• Because of the innovative technology of the wall tap and microcontroller the Synchronized Lamp Control System can easily adapt and utilize new technologies.  

• And the Synchronized Lamp Control System works well with dimmable lamps and LED bulbs. 

• Taking this modernization further, the base unit and second control unit of the Synchronized Lamp Control System include USB charging ports, allowing their use as power source for additional electronics. 

• The base unit has a microcontroller, ensuring consistency and reliability in the power provided through their sockets. 

• The new Synchronized Lamp Control System provides additional features to switch-controlled wall outlets that better meet the needs of today’s consumers.

Potential consumers of the Synchronized Lamp Control System can be identified with demographic comparison to those who already purchase similar items, such as those who quickly purchase new electronic items shortly after they’re introduced to the marketplace.

The standout consumers in both frequency and spending are young, with above-average household incomes, are married, and with two incomes to their homes. These factors can be used to identify a likely consumer group, using conservative narrowing in descending format. To further ensure applicability of this device used within the home, the consumer group can be further narrowed to those who are homeowners. 

Reaching only 10 percent of this extremely narrowed group would still result in sales of 143,100 units of the Synchronized Lamp Control System. 

Another method of potential consumer identification would include new homeowners, including existing and newly-constructed dwellings. These consumers typically spend over $10,000 on new items for use in the home within the first year of ownership, and most of these items purchased are newer, more modern alternatives. 

Reaching only five percent of these consumers would still result in sales of over 300,000 units of the Synchronized Lamp Control System in just one year.

All estimates for the possible costs and prices of a new, yet-to-be-manufactured item are very difficult to estimate. This difficulty is due to potential variations in the costs of initial materials, the rate of production for the item, and its initial consumer demand.  As a result, these estimates are very difficult to comprise.

Moreover, research on estimated costs and prices is very restricted so as to avoid improper disclosure of the Synchronized Lamp Control System while still in these beginning stages.

In order to provide further detailed information for consideration, however, such estimates should be offered. The “Best Estimate” enclosed within is primarily based upon pricing of similar products (when possible) by this applicable manufacturing category, current cost of necessary materials, and average value added for the applicable manufacturing industry.

These estimates are subject to change and are enclosed only to offer a preliminary means of evaluation of product value for the Synchronized Lamp Control System. Of course, only its manufacturer could properly determine the costs and prices.

The broad estimates on potential costs and prices for the Synchronized Lamp Control System, throughout the line of distributors, could be:

REMINDER:  It is extremely important to remember that the above costs and prices are only estimates. Actual costs and prices can only be determined by manufacturing companies with a good understanding of their own production capabilities and by suppliers and outlets, based on the final prices offered to them.
