Whether retrofitting heritage properties, expanding office spaces, adding multi-way switches without cutting plaster, or automating garage gates, S-Tech Kinetic Receivers offer an adaptable, wire-free control infrastructure.
The kinetic switches harvest their own operating energy, while the receiver units manage the connected electrical load.
Key Features & Benefits
- Wi-Fi & Smart Home Native: Powered by the TUYA app ecosystem (2.4GHz Wi-Fi), allowing full mobile app control, timers, scheduling, and direct integration with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.
- Flexible Pairing Capability:
- Pair multiple kinetic switches to a single receiver for effortless 2-way, 3-way, or multi-location switching without traveler wires.
- Pair one kinetic switch to up to 5 receivers simultaneously for synchronized group switching across multiple light fittings or zones.
- Long Wireless Operating Range: Transmits reliably up to 20 metres indoors through interior walls and up to 80 metres outdoors line-of-sight.
- Zero Battery Maintenance: Receivers pair directly with self-powered kinetic switches, removing battery changes from the ecosystem.
- Versatile Model Range: Includes options for standard switching, dual-circuit control, TRIAC dimming, and low-voltage gate/door contact triggering.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Do I need a neutral wire to power the S-Tech Kinetic Receiver?
A: Yes. The receiver connects to the 240V AC power supply at the light fitting or load location and requires active and neutral connections to operate.
Q: Can I control the receiver with my phone when I am away from home?
A: Yes. Because all S-Tech kinetic receivers feature built-in Wi-Fi powered by TUYA, you can control connected lighting remotely via the TUYA smart app from anywhere with an internet connection.
Q: How many switches can I pair with a single receiver?
A: You can pair multiple S-Tech kinetic switches or key fobs to a single receiver to enable 2-way, 3-way, or multi-point switching throughout a room or building.
