Description
Control the Smart Power 50 power supply / transformer via Bluetooth
Bluetooth app to control the 1780 Smart Power Supply.
This transformer is commonly use for outdoor deck, landscape, and fence lighting.
Remember to pair the transformer and phone the first time you connect. Before connecting with the app, push and release the pair button on the power supply (display will show 'bt' for 30 seconds or until pairing is successful).
If you are having issues, try the following:
-- Factory reset the transformer (unplug the transformer for 10 seconds - hold in the power button and plug in the transformer at the same time - you can release the power button after the display comes on with 'Ao')
--Remove the device from the iPhone's bluetooth settings (Settings, Bluetooth, click on the blue information icon after the SMARTPOER50_xxxx device. Then click 'Forget This Device')
--Try to reconnect using the app - make sure to push and release the pair button on the transformer BEFORE connecting to the device.

Ratings and Reviews
Meh
Downloaded to support the SmartPower 50 low voltage transformer for Westbury deck lights. Really bad UI. Minimally funcional. I can pair, dim and brighten, but I can’t turn on and off, which makes it less functional than the cheap remote. Looks like something that someone threw together one weekend and never bothers to maintain. Kind of works for dimming and brightening, but it’s largely junkware.
Edit: You can turn it on and off on the “Advanced Tab”. Really? Turning the power on and off is advanced? I’m speechless. That demonstrates that that the UI is crap.

Not worth it
I am a bit app overloaded to begin with so am a little picky. App would not let me change the mode only the dimmer and power. Might as well just use the included remote and and set to dusk to dawn. I looked at the update firmware instructions which required yet another app. Are you kidding me. Sorry you lost me.
Developer Response ,
The app has been updated. The issue was most likely due to not pairing the transformer and the phone. If you have any issues, reach out to smartpower50@gmail.com and we will get back to you.
Easy to Use
I gave a 4 star because wish the app would tell me when the pairing is broken. I thought the app was not working but instead the pairing with the transformer was lost. Also wish the Bluetooth range was little farther. You have to be pretty close to transformer to make the app work.
Developer Response ,
Apple restricts the app from knowing if it is paired or not with the transformer. We updated the app to catch some error codes which indicated the pairing was most likely lost. We added on screen prompts to help remedy any problems. If you still have issues, reach out to smartpower50@gmail.com and we will get back to you.
