Somfy Systems has announced the launch of the Dimmable LED RTS Light Kit, a convenient lighting solution for awnings and pergolas.

Saying they are easy to install and operate, Somfy says the light kit can be controlled with the same remote used to operate Somfy motorized awnings. App control is also offered through the Somfy myLink, available for smartphones and tablets.

The Dimmable LED RTS Light Kit is customizable and you can choose between warm and cool white and 12 different levels of brightness, plus the ability to set a preferred “my” setting.

Available as a turn-key kit that can control up to six Somfy LED light strips, the lighting kit is easy to install quickly in both new and existing Somfy motorized installations without the need for an electrician. LED bars can be mounted on top of the awning arms for ambient light or facing down for stronger light, depending on preference.

Combine the Dimmable LED RTS Light Kit with Somfy’s Infrared RTS Heat Receiver to create the perfect outdoor oasis, whether it’s a bright afternoon or a late night.  Also perfect for restaurants and hotels, providing extra space outdoors and increasing sitting capacity year round.

Here are the specifics.
