GE Lighting, a Savant company Launches Refreshed reveal® Series and Introduces Design-Forward Light + Form Bulbs kferron@brokaw.com Tue, 12/09/2025 - 07:00

Cleveland, OH – December 9th, 2025 – GE Lighting, a Savant company, today introduces two new LED bulb additions to its evolving and expanding lineup of elevated and high-definition GE lighting solutions: Light + Form and a refreshed reveal® series.

The all-new Light + Form series takes a sculptural, design-first approach to home lighting—blending artistic forms with soft illumination to create bulbs that double as décor even when turned off. The company has also managed to enhance its best light – reveal. A popular choice for interior designers and homeowners who depend on accurate wall and décor colors to bring spaces to life, reveal filters out dulling yellow light to provide incredible color contrast and whiter whites for exceptional clarity.

“Lighting is an expression of personal style. Some people prefer subtle filaments for an understated look, while others gravitate toward bold, modern silhouettes. With the new Light + Form and refreshed reveal products, we’re giving customers high-quality lighting options that bring personality, clarity and style into every room,” said Kara Perdue, VP of Product Management at GE Lighting, a Savant company.

Lighting As Unique as You Are

Light + Form is a reimagination of the traditional bulb with unique shapes and premium finishes that beautifully highlight decorative fixtures, delivering either a soft white, cozy glow or a crisp, bright daylight tone. The result is high-definition, comfortable light within an eye-catching shape and look that enhances your décor whether the bulb is on or off.

Available in four styles—Canopy Bulb, Edge Light, Silver Filament (Soft White) and Silver Filament (Daylight)—Light + Form products are crafted to complement a wide range of modern aesthetics.

Canopy Bulb: Featuring a warm candlelit glow and elegant teardrop form, the Canopy Bulb is ideal for pendant lighting and glass fixtures. Its amber-tinted glass adds warmth and depth, enhancing the ambience of dining areas, entryways and cozy corners.
Silver Filament (Soft White & Daylight): Silver Filament brings a timeless, minimalist aesthetic inspired by classic filament bulbs—without the yellowed filaments that can detract from a fixture’s design when the bulb is off. Its unique filament design adds a refined touch to any decorative fixture.
Edge Light: A slim, modern profile wrapped with a pearl-colored filament delivers a soft, even glow. Exclusive Edge Light adds a distinctive, contemporary touch to open fixtures or statement pieces, offering a look that’s truly one-of-a-kind.

Pure, Clean Light - Reimagined

The refreshed reveal series minimizes harsh blue and yellow undertones using advanced color-illumination technology, producing natural, balanced lighting that renders colors and details with remarkable accuracy. Ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, craft rooms and other spaces where clarity matters, the pure high-definition light enhances everything from décor updates to everyday tasks.

Engineered for durability and efficiency, reveal bulbs are rated to last up to 15 years and deliver the brightness of a traditional 60W bulb while using significantly less energy. The updated line is available in a wide range of shapes, sizes and decorative styles and is compatible with most dimmer switches, including Cync smart-enabled GE switches and dimmers. Whether you’re refreshing a room or creating a cozy seasonal atmosphere, reveal provides vivid, balanced light designed for every space.

Availability & Pricing

The Light + Form series is available today at Lowe’s starting at $11.98. The refreshed reveal series is also available now at Shop.GELighting.com, Amazon, Target and Walmart starting at $13.99.

The included lawn stakes and grid paper help homeowners easily create and display shapes, perfect for adding team spirit or supporting social and health-related causes.

“As exterior lighting moves past the traditional floodlight, these refreshed Cync smart outdoor lights give families more ways to personalize their homes,” said Kara Perdue, Vice President of Product Management at GE Lighting, a Savant company. “Whether customers want to add accent lighting for security and aesthetics, go big for the holidays, or cheer on their local team, our smart lights make it simple to customize their lighting with a tap in the Cync app.”

The two Cync outdoor smart lighting products feature dynamic effects, so each light segment can be controlled individually and include light effects that sync to music. The updated Light Strips and Controller are weather-rated and designed for exterior use—including a two-year limited warranty. The new 100-foot Eave Lights provide permanent accent lighting around roofs and porches. Cuttable and extendable, these smart lights illuminate facades in festive holiday or team colors and include adjustable white tones for year-round use.

Everyday Perfection.

Wet-rated and waterproof, the Cync Light Strips and Eave Lights are the perfect way to decorate your outdoor space—without the hassle of re-installing lights for special events throughout the year. Add accent lighting to porches and patios, plus create decorative shapes using the flexible strip and included stakes. From a color associated with a special cause to festive holiday reds and greens, these light strips make it easy to refresh your outdoor space in seasonal colors—no yearly re-decorating required.

Smart, Seamless Control

Both outdoor smart lights connect directly to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network—no hub required. Using the Cync app, powered by Savant, users can set custom schedules to turn lights on or off at specific times or while away, control individual color segments, adjust brightness, and create personalized light shows at home or on-the-go. Voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant makes it simple to change the mood hands-free.

New Matter-Compatible Smart Switches mkrueger@brokaw.com Thu, 08/21/2025 - 09:22

The new Matter-compatible switches feature a sleek redesign, offering smarter, more flexible ways to simplify lighting control throughout the home.

Cleveland, OH – August 21, 2025 - GE Lighting, a Savant company today announces the availability of its new Cync® Keypad Dimmer Smart Switch and Paddle Dimmer Smart Switch, a part of the GE portfolio of smart home products. First revealed at CES 2025, these two models mark the beginning of a redesigned Cync switch lineup, offering homeowners more intuitive control, expanded platform compatibility, and future-proof connectivity through Matter.

Both switches are available now and are designed to make upgrading to smart lighting easier and more accessible, whether you’re automating a single room or the entire home.

Simple Installation. Smart Control.

The Matter-compatible switches integrate seamlessly with Alexa, Google Home, Apple Home, and SmartThings without a hub. Designed for homes built after the 1980s with a neutral and ground wire included, installation is simple and DIY. Built-in Wi-Fi enables remote control, scheduling, and scene-setting through the Cync and Savant apps. A single Cync switch makes the entire circuit smart - no need for companion switches - bringing voice control and automation to every connected light. The included traveler wire also supports 3-way and 4-way setups without relying on Wi-Fi, and when paired with Cync smart bulbs, schedules and voice commands continue to work even if the switches are turned off.

“Lighting is personal and plays a huge role in how we experience our homes,” said Kara Perdue, Vice President of Product Management at GE Lighting, a Savant company. “With the new Cync Keypad and Paddle Dimmer Smart Switches, we’re giving people smarter, more flexible options that integrate into their daily routines. Whether it’s automating an entire circuit with just one switch or accessing favorite lighting scenes with a tap, these Matter-compatible switches simplify smart home control for everyone.”

Two Models. Two Experiences.

The Keypad Dimmer Smart Switch is ideal for those who want quick access to lighting scenes and groups. Featuring two programmable buttons, users can control entire rooms or activate customized lighting scenes with a single touch. It also offers ultra-smooth dimming performance with dimmable LED and incandescent bulbs, making it a perfect fit for living rooms, bedrooms, and entryways where ambiance and convenience are key.

For homeowners seeking a more traditional design, the Paddle Dimmer Smart Switch blends classic style with modern smart features. With its familiar paddle design and integrated side slider, users can adjust brightness levels smoothly and intuitively. LED indicator lights provide a subtle visual cue of the dimming level, enhancing usability while maintaining a clean aesthetic. This model is ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and any space where simple, reliable dimming control is preferred.

Availability & Pricing

Both switches are available now at the GE Lighting e-shop and Amazon. The GE Cync Keypad Dimmer Smart Switch is $44.99, and the GE Cync Paddle Dimmer Smart Switch is available for $25.99. The entire refreshed line of GE Cync smart switches will be available nationwide in Q1 of next year.

GE reveal® bulbs re-engineered to better depict vivid room colors and deliver whiter whites
New Cync® outdoor café lights and re-designed Cync switches bolster GE smart portfolio
For the first time ever, Savant brings the GE brand into the professionally installed residential market with the introduction of Proseo smart lighting and shade solutions
Affordable and easy-to-install Savant Smart Power Modules to electrify millions of homes

Hyannis, MA. January 6, 2025 – Savant Systems, Inc., a global leader in smart home and power and parent of GE Lighting, a Savant company, will be launching an array of GE-branded traditional and smart lighting and shading solutions, as well as an innovative and affordable Savant smart power solution that can help electrify millions of homes across the U.S. and beyond.

“We continue to innovate across Savant in the LED lighting space, as well as smart home and power solutions, to bring reliable and attractive energy-saving technologies to homeowners, professional contractors and builders,” said Bob Madonna, CEO of Savant. “Both Savant and GE-branded smart home and energy solutions combine an award-winning app, AI, and voice experiences to further unleash the true power and potential of intelligent technologies.”

Next Generation GE reveal LED Bulbs

For more than 20 years, GE reveal light bulbs have set the standard for exceptional light quality and clarity. For 2025, a reformulated proprietary phosphor blend will elevate the color and texture rendering of reveal light bulbs while also improving lumen-per-watt efficiency. The enhanced neutral, natural light provides vivid balanced light: the warmth of soft white with the crispness of daylight without a yellowish or bluish tinge.

Available in a variety of shapes and sizes, the enhanced quality of light is projected to hit the retailer shelves during the second half of 2025.

Expanded Cync Dynamic Effects Family of GE Smart Home Products

The Cync Dynamic Effects family of GE smart home products expands in 2025 to include café lights and redesigned outdoor light strips. Both products work seamlessly with the Cync and Savant apps, featuring music syncing and individual segment color control. The easy-to-install Cync Dynamic Effects Café Lights come with reinforced eyeholes to reliably hang from rope, wire, or hooks.

Also new for 2025 are redesigned Cync Dynamic Effects Outdoor Light Strips. These new thinner, more flexible strips enable users to create their wall and lawn using the included stakes and grid templates. Café lights be available in March. The 24-foot product will start at $39.99, and the 48-foot version will cost $69.99. The outdoor light strips will be available in April in 16-foot for $79.99 and 32-foot for $129.99.

Cync Smart Keypad Dimmer and Smart Paddle Dimmer

The new Cync Smart Keypad Dimmer joins a redesigned family of GE smart switches. The keypad dimmer includes two programmable buttons making scene and group control available at the touch of a button. The new Cync Smart Paddle Dimmer provides a broad, smooth dimming range via the slider on the side of the switch and matches traditional paddle-style switches.

The entire family has been enhanced to make converting traditional circuits to smart lighting easier and more affordable. One Cync smart switch on a circuit makes the entire circuit smart—no need for companion smart switches or additional smart switches. The inclusion of the traveler wire enables three-way connectivity without Wi-Fi enabled. Plus, when paired with Cync smart bulbs, the bulbs will respond to voice commands and maintain schedules even when the switch is turned off. Compatible with the Cync app, Savant app and Matter, these switches provide smart control over traditional bulbs.

The Cync Smart Keypad Dimmer will be $44.99, and the Smart Paddle Dimmer switches will be $25.99 and both will be available in March. The rest of the family will roll out later this year.

GE Smart Lighting and Shading for Professionals

New for 2025 are GE-branded smart lighting and easy-to-install shades designed specifically for the professional installer residential channel. GE Proseo lighting and shades synthesize the brand recognition and trust of GE with the prowess of Savant’s luxury-smart home control. The initial portfolio includes smart shades, keypads, and panelized lighting.

Beautiful and energy efficient, Proseo lighting will enable the personalized ambiance traditional lighting can’t replicate. Together with the Savant app, the family of keypads and dimmers deliver exceptional light quality and extraordinary flexibility to create the perfect vibe in any space.

Stunning and sleek, Proseo shades will combine modern architectural aesthetics, performance fabrics and unmatched control interface options to complement any luxury space. Versatile hardware options conceal unsightly wires and screws for a streamlined look that blends with the architecture and complements the growing demand for window walls, floor-to-ceiling corner windows, and more.

Proseo products are available through Savant’s network of smart home professionals. A Proseo switch starter kit will retail for $99 and individual switches will range from $30 to $60. Shades are custom and priced as such.

Savant Smart Budget Upgrades Home

The trend towards the electrification of homes for energy savings and harmful emission reduction continues to intensify. Today, to add an EV charger, electric appliances, etc., millions of homeowners will need an expensive electric utility company service upgrade that could cost in the tens of thousands of dollars.

Savant Smart Budget is an affordable alternative that requires installation by a licensed electrician. The solution consists of Savant Power Modules that can be added into an existing electrical panel, as well as software that regulates the power output of the electrical panel, so the demand never exceeds a home’s capacity. Homeowners interact with Smart Budget through Savant’s award-winning app and, whether on-demand or on a schedule, they can easily prioritize how and when power is used in the home by monitoring live consumption, shedding unnecessary loads, and balancing usage within a limited electrical service.

Savant Smart Budget starts at $1,500 and will be available in Q2 2025 through Savant’s network of smart home and energy professionals.
