What is Poka-yoke™?

"inadvertent error prevention"

Poka-yoke™ is a Japanese term that means “error-proofing” by implementing simple and inexpensive devices that help operators avoid mistakes in their work caused by using the wrong parts, leaving out a part, installing a part backwards, etc.

How We Apply Poka-yoke to Lighting

As expert light installers, we wanted to design a system that is simple, quick, and cost-saving, but also customizable. After years of experience, our Poka-yoke Power System brings that principle to permanent LED installations. Every component is pre-configured to connect only one way, so installers get consistent, professional results with less time on site. 

  • Plug-and-play: standardized male and female connectors ensure fast, error-free assembly.
  • No cutting or splicing: simplifies installation, prevents wiring errors while maintaining compliance with most safety codes.
  • Clean layouts: components are pre-packaged in coordinated lengths and quantities for easy ordering and installation.
  • Customizable installation: components are available in multiple sizes and configurations to fit any home.

Lights & Components

Pixel lights, ribbon-wire extensions, and wifi-enabled control units handle the data flow from controller to lights with secure connections.

  • Connects one way only
  • Pre-connected string lengths and counts
  • Quick swap / serviceable parts

Power Management

Power supplies, 14-2 power wire, and connection inserts (power/data/ground) deliver stable, efficient energy distribution without field splicing.

  • Pre-terminated, male/female connectors
  • Clear polarity and mating
  • Rapid install & easy maintenance

Designed for installers: Light string lengths and box counts match our track system (e.g., 9 strings per box ↔ 9 track sticks per box). Ordering and layout are straightforward—pair a box of lights with a box of track for a perfect fit.

FAQs 

Can I service or replace parts later?

Yes. Components are individually serviceable and designed for quick swap with matching, keyed connectors.

Does the system work on 5G Wi-Fi?

The controller connects only to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. This is intentional—2.4GHz offers stronger wall penetration, wider coverage, and far more stable performance for smart lighting. Most dual-band routers already broadcast a 2.4GHz signal, and it’s ideal for simple operations like on/off control, color changes, and brightness adjustments. Using 5G isn’t necessary and may cause connection failures in corners or long runs.

Is there a warranty?

Yes. Detailed warranty terms will be published soon.
