- Founded in 1984 by brothers Jerry and Steve Mix in Santa Clara, California, WattStopper reflects their convictions about the importance of providing energy-efficient, convenient, and accessible controls for the built environment.
- In demonstrating these beliefs, WattStopper’s founding team first introduced a new, innovative occupancy sensor product line. This included ultrasonic and passive infrared sensors as well as the industry-first, patented Dual Technology occupancy sensor.
- In the years that followed, WattStopper expanded its occupancy sensor product offering, and developed additional solutions using other control technologies. These included the industry-first Isole plug load control power strip and personal sensor, the first dual loop photosensor, and our most recent Digital Lighting Management line of products.
- In 1996 WattStopper joined the Legrand Group. A leading provider of products and systems for electrical installations and information networks wherever people live and work, Legrand delivers an unequaled depth and breadth of innovative solutions.
