Smart homes aren’t just for luxury penthouses anymore. With more affordable options available today, everyone can enjoy the comfort and convenience of smart technology — starting with lighting.
At Shiok Lighting, we believe that good lighting should not only make your home look beautiful but also make your life easier. And that’s exactly what smart lighting does.

What Is Smart Lighting, Really?
Smart lighting simply means lighting that gives you more control. Instead of relying solely on switches, you can control your lights using your phone, voice, or smart home system.
You can:
Adjust brightness levels to match your mood.
Change light color from warm to white to RGB.
Schedule lights to turn on when you get home.
Set “movie” or “sleep” scenes with a single tap and many more.
It’s lighting that adapts to you — not the other way around.
The best part? You don’t need an expensive setup or a major renovation. With today’s affordable systems, you can easily upgrade your home lighting, one room at a time.
Why Smart Lighting Is Worth Considering
1. Convenience at Your Fingertips
Imagine controlling all your lights from bed — no more fumbling for switches in the dark. Whether it’s through your phone or a simple voice command like “Hey Google, turn off the lights,” smart lighting makes daily life smoother.
2. Ambience and Customisation
Want warm, cosy lighting for movie nights and bright, energising light for work-from-home days? With adjustable colour temperature and brightness, you can set the perfect mood anytime.
3. Energy Efficiency
Smart lights can be switch off remotely when you’re not around, helping you save energy (and money) without even thinking about it.
The Big Myth: “Smart Lighting Is Expensive”
Many homeowners still believe that smart lighting means costly systems and complex wiring. The truth? It doesn’t have to be.
With today’s plug-and-play solutions like Xtron and Yeelight, smart lighting is now accessible and budget-friendly. You can start small — even one room or one light at a time — and expand gradually.
At Shiok Lighting, we’ve curated smart lighting options that blend seamlessly into modern Singapore homes. They’re stylish, reliable, and easy to set up — so you don’t need to be tech-savvy to enjoy them.

How to Build an Affordable Smart Lighting Setup
1. Start with Key Areas
Begin with the rooms you use most — your bedroom, living room, or hallway. A smart switch or a few smart bulbs can make a big difference.
2. Mix and Match for Maximum Value
Smart Bulbs: Perfect for table lamps or ceiling lights. Adjust brightness and colour easily.
Smart Switches: Great for existing fixtures. You can make your regular ceiling lights “smart” without replacing them.
Smart LED Strips: Add a soft, ambient glow to TV consoles, headboards, or kitchen counters.
3. Connect and Control
Both Xtron and Yeelight smart lighting systems work seamlessly with popular platforms like Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and Amazon Alexa — giving you complete control from your smartphone or through voice commands.
Spotlight on Xtron and Yeelight
Designed for modern homes, Xtron offers an affordable way to introduce smart technology without overcomplicating things. Think smart downlights and switches that integrate beautifully into any interior.
They’re reliable, stylish, and simple to install — perfect for new BTO or condo homeowners who want to future-proof their spaces.
If you love flexibility and ambience, Yeelight is a great choice. Known for its intuitive app and wide range of colour options, Yeelight lets you customise your home lighting exactly the way you want — from warm white for winding down to vibrant hues for entertaining.
Both brands give you quality smart lighting at affordable prices, available right here at Shiok Lighting.
Budget Tips for Smart Lighting Beginners
Start small — you don’t need to go all-in right away. Try smart bulbs in your bedroom first.
Use smart switches — they’re cost-effective and can control multiple lights at once.
Automate routines — schedule lights to turn on before you get home, or dim automatically at bedtime.
Choose reliable brands — Xtron and Yeelight come with local support and warranty through Shiok Lighting, so you can buy with peace of mind.
