Nanoleaf today launched the Smart Multicolor Ceiling Light, an affordable lighting product compatible with Matter. With a double-sided design, there is a main downlight and a backlight up for a layered lighting glow. Each side can be individually controlled for a bright light or ambient lighting option.
The light contains 196 LEDs, with up to 2,600 lumens. White light ranges from 2200K to 6500K, supporting tones that change throughout the day to match natural light. Nanoleaf claims it was built with RG0 Low Blue Light technology to reduce the risk of blue light and eye strain.
There are 28 color zones and millions of colors are supported for gradients. According to Nanoleaf, the multi-colored ceiling light has a color rendering index of 95, delivering “vibrant, natural colors.”
The light measures 13.8 inches and 1.18 inches thick. This is a hardwired light intended to be installed with a standard light switch, although it also works with the Nanoleaf Sense+ wireless smart switch.
Nanoleaf’s new lamp supports Matter over Wi-Fi, so it can connect to a HomeKit setup for use with Siri and the Home app. It also works with the Nanoleaf app, which offers hundreds of color scenes and supports music pairing. For multi-color lighting scenes with gradients, the Nanoleaf app is required because HomeKit does not support it.
The Nanoleaf Smart Multicolor Ceiling Light can be purchased on Amazon.com or on the Nanoleaf website for $80.
