NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Nov. 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SkyFidelity. Inc/Tricascade, Inc (OTC Pink:SRMX) SkyFidelity, Inc.’s subsidiary, TriCascade, Inc.,an Internet of Things (IoT) technology company has created the first of its kind Smart Wall Plug-an Internet of Things (IoT) device that will be introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January 2018.
The Smart Wall Plug is one of a kind. Its patented technology completely transcends the market for overload/surge protection. There are wall plugs that provide mobile app based "on-off" features-but none with provide overload protection. Finally, there are no devices in the marketplace that perform the "triple play": (1) surge protection/load management alerts/ child proof safety outlet protection; (2) WIFI extender/router functions; and (3) energy management metering in the cloud.
- The Company has designed this innovative Smart Wall Plug technology to complement its SmartOutlet device which will create a total “before and after-market” product cycle providing homes, apartments, condos and office buildings with overload/surge protection.
- The Company has created a Mobile App-based software platform that will allow all of its devices to connect with and be controlled through Alexa-Equipped voice commands.
- The Smart Wall Plug and Smart Outlet Technologies will provide the foundation for the final stages of the Smart Home: Energy Management. Tri Cascade’s i-BRIGHT programmable 15/20 AMP and GFCI Duplex Receptacles built-in with patented overload safety protection technology, and Smart Light Switch/Dimmers are the fundamental components for the BRIGHTconnect™ IoT ECO-Cloud Platform by enabling energy efficiency through a 802.11n Wi-Fi Mesh network of interconnected nodes allowing real time power consumption metering and user-friendly Sell-Learning Schedule System.

Market Opportunities
- Between 2010 and 2014, U.S. municipal fire departments responded to an average of 45,210 home structure fires involving electrical failure or malfunction. These fires caused annual averages of 420 civilian deaths, 1,370 civilian injuries, and $1.4 billion in direct property damage. Thirty-nine percent of home electrical fires involve outlets and receptacles, and other electrical wiring. The installation of the Smart Wall Plug in these residences could prevent these losses.
- TriCascade intends to partner with major home builders as well as retail partner such as Home Depot and Lowes to offer consumers SmartHome Energy Management devices that will protect homes, apartments and commercial buildings from surge and overload issues while providing a SmartGrid mobile app to monitor energy usage.
- The Smart Wall Plug as well as the Smart Outlet will be marketed to the 130 million households and 7+ millions of business in the U.S. that currently do not report any Energy Management capability. Statistically, 74% of Americans are likely to change their energy use to save money on their utility bills if they were given a new technology solution.
- Tri Cascade will introduce the latest smart energy efficiency technologies faster than competitors due to its strategic partnership with Microsoft and Freescale. Tri Cascade will also have access to its partners’ superior marketing data and marketing vendors.
- TriCascade’s proprietary Smart Wall Plug and Smart Outlet capabilities will either complement or replace currently deployed wall outlets in homes, apartments and commercial buildings which offer none of the functionality of the SMARTSURGE Outlet: Surge/Overload protection; Energy Management; and WiFI extension.
