Control More Monitor Smarter Choose the MTS16
As homes and workplaces become more connected, smart electrical control provides a practical way to manage everyday electrical loads. The Major Tech MTS16 Smart Switch combines remote switching, energy monitoring and automation in one compact device, helping users gain greater control over connected appliances and circuits.
The MTS16 is installed behind a compatible power point or switch, allowing an existing electrical connection to become part of a smart control system. Once professionally installed and connected to the Major Tech Hub App, users can switch the connected load on or off from a compatible smartphone. This provides convenient control without requiring direct access to the physical switch.
Remote access can be particularly helpful when appliances need to be controlled while the user is away from the property. It can also provide additional convenience for devices positioned in difficult-to-reach areas. Instead of relying only on manual operation, the connected load can be managed through the app as part of a more flexible electrical system.
The MTS16 also supports scheduling and timer functions. Users can create operating times that suit their daily routines, such as switching selected lights on in the evening or turning connected equipment off after a specified period. Scheduling can help prevent appliances from operating longer than necessary and supports more consistent control throughout the day.
Energy monitoring adds another useful layer of information. Through the Major Tech Hub App, users can view the energy consumption of the connected load and gain a clearer understanding of how and when electricity is being used. This can help identify equipment that consumes more energy than expected or continues operating when it is not required.
Monitoring does not automatically reduce electricity consumption, but it provides information that can support better decisions. Once users understand the operating patterns of connected appliances, they can adjust schedules, change usage habits or create automation rules to manage energy more effectively.
The MTS16 can also operate as part of the wider Major Tech smart ecosystem. Rules can be created so that one action triggers another compatible smart device. For example, switching on an outdoor light through an MTS16 could activate another connected product or form part of a scheduled evening routine. This moves smart control beyond simple remote switching and allows multiple devices to work together.
As smart home technology continues to develop, compatibility between different devices and platforms has become increasingly important. Matter is a smart home connectivity standard designed to make supported products easier to connect and integrate across compatible smart home ecosystems. The recently upgraded MTS16 Version II includes Matter support, providing users with greater flexibility when adding the smart switch to an existing system or expanding their connected environment. This added compatibility allows the MTS16 Version II to work more seamlessly with other Matter-supported devices and platforms, helping create a more unified and accessible smart home experience.
The MTS16 is suited to residential and light commercial applications where remote control, scheduling, automation and energy visibility are required. As it forms part of a fixed electrical installation, it must be installed and configured by a suitably qualified electrician in accordance with applicable regulations and the supplied instructions.
By combining connected control with practical energy information, the Major Tech MTS16 offers a simple way to make everyday electrical loads smarter, more visible and easier to manage.
