Snap Lighting

Snap Lighting’s main purpose is to eliminate the extremely negative user experience of changing light fittings – mess, expense, time, hassle, danger – and replace it with a delightful, seamless experience.

Changing a Snap Lighting fitting is safer than changing a light bulb. Is finger-safe with the power on, has RCM (c-tick) and meets safety standard AS NZS 60598 (tested by TUV Rheinland).

In addition to recyclable polymers used, the easy changeability of Snap Lighting opens a new market in second hand light fittings, thus reducing waste to landfill.

Snap Lighting addresses the problems with hard-wired light fittings – they’re unsafe to install, you need an expensive licenced electrician to install them, you need time off work to be home for the electrician, and then they\’re permanent. That’s a big commitment for a homeowner, and not an option for renters.

Snap Lighting’s number one design priority, besides safety, is ease of use and delightful user experience. To this end Snap Lighting has ground breaking design features such as the push-in, push-out instant installation method (patented in Australia, USA, Europe, UK, Canada, and China) and tool-less pendant height adjustment.

Additional intelligent design features:

• Many parts are designed symmetrically such that two identical halves make up a whole. This halves injection mould costs and reduces initial financial risk while in the prototype stages. It also simplifies logistics, assembly and inventory management in production.
• Excluding the long retention screws, all parts are assembled using the one type and length of screw. This also simplifies logistics, assembly and inventory management and reduces potential assembly errors.
• The simple push in, push out mechanisms means a simple pole holder can be used to install the fittings instead of climbing a ladder (in development).
