January 27, 2017

It’s no surprise that connected/smart devices could be found all over the place at this year’s CES. Proving that, at some point, every facet of the modern home will have a chip in it, Todd met up with Min from Amadas. Min demonstrated her company’s new smart door lever lock. The lock has some impressive features: * Unlock door using either Amadas mobile app or PIN * Built-in emergency solar panel lets you recharge the door lock’s battery using just the light from your smartphone’s camera, in case the battery dies while you’re out * Control the smart door lock from anywhere, at any time, using the Amadas mobile app * See a login history of who has accessed a specific door lock * Amadas door lock hardware comes in a variety of designs with customized options available * Uses Z-Wave technology to ensure security The Amadas smart door lever lock is expected to retail for between $300 and $400
