Your Bluetooth Mesh Smart Home

A Bluetooth Mesh smart home uses a decentralized wireless network where every device — light, switch, sensor, shutter — acts as a relay node. Messages hop from device to device, creating a self-healing network with no single point of failure. MESHLE pioneered its own Bluetooth Mesh protocol in 2013, four years before the official standard was ratified. Today, MESHLE supports up to 255 nodes per network, covering lighting, shading, climate, and more — all controlled from one free app.

No. For everyday local control — switching lights, adjusting blinds, running schedules and automations — no hub or gateway is required. Your smartphone connects directly to the MESHLE Bluetooth Mesh network. A MESHLE Gateway is only needed if you want voice control (Alexa, Google Home, Apple Home via Matter), remote access from outside your home, or integration with third-party platforms like openHAB or Node-RED.

Yes. MESHLE is designed offline-first. All schedules, scenes, automations, and sensor-triggered rules are stored and executed locally on each mesh node. If your internet goes down, everything continues to work — lights respond, shutters move on schedule, and motion sensors trigger as configured. The cloud is entirely optional and only used for remote access or voice assistant integration.

MESHLE covers lighting (dimming, tunable white, RGB, RGBW, RGBTW), roller shutters, venetian blinds, awnings, switchable outlets, ventilation, and heating. A typical single-family home might include: kitchen lighting with roller shutters and LED strips, a living room with dimmable circuits, multiple roller shutters, and window contacts, bedrooms with dimmable lights and automated blinds, and hallways with motion-sensor-triggered lighting. Battery-free kinetic switches (compatible with Gira, Jung, Merten, OPUS frames) replace traditional wall switches without any wiring.

Yes, through the MESHLE Gateway. The Gateway is Matter-ready and bridges your Bluetooth Mesh network to Apple Home, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa. It also provides a REST API and MQTT for integration with platforms like openHAB, Node-RED, or custom MQTT brokers. Cloud-to-cloud integrations are available for SolarEdge inverters, NIBE heat pumps, and Danfoss devices.

Yes. The MESHLE Gateway exposes an OpenAPI-compliant REST API and MQTT locally on your network. This allows direct integration with openHAB, Node-RED, Home Assistant (via MQTT), or any custom automation server — all without cloud dependency. For DIY users, this means full programmatic access to every device in your MESHLE Bluetooth Mesh network, right on your local LAN.
