After raising $500,000+ on Kickstarter and earning TÜV Rheinland Sustained Endurance Certification, the low‑light perovskite solar smart lock is now available for $259.99 — 30% off MSRP.
LAS VEGAS, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Smart locks today can recognize your face, read your fingerprint, and connect to your phone. But they all share one problem: you still have to remember to charge them.
That problem ends today.
DESLOC today announced the official North American launch of the V150 Plus, the world's first consumer smart lock powered by an integrated perovskite solar panel that self‑charges in low‑light and shaded conditions. Starting today, homeowners can finally install a smart lock and stop worrying about its battery.
Available exclusively through DESLOC's official website at a launch price of $259.99 (MSRP $299.99) — a 30% discount for early buyers.
The Problem Smart Lock Makers Don't Talk About
Every new smart lock feature — facial recognition, fingerprint access, remote control — needs power. More features mean more batteries to check, more chargers to find, more things to remember.
For the average homeowner, that adds up to 146 standard AA batteries replaced every year. Not just cost. Not just waste. Another chore.
DESLOC asked a different question:
What if the lock could power itself — even on a shaded porch or a cloudy day?
The Answer: Perovskite Solar, Built for Real Homes
The V150 Plus combines three innovations that no other smart lock offers:
- A 4.8‑inch perovskite low‑light solar panel that captures ambient light starting at just 300 lux — meaning it generates power in covered entryways, shaded porches, and even indirect indoor lighting
- A 10,000mAh removable backup battery that keeps the lock running for up to 8 months even with zero solar input
- DESLOC's proprietary intelligent battery management system(BMS) that dynamically allocates power between solar input and battery reserves
The result: less charging, less battery anxiety, less maintenance. Full stop.
Smart Access That Removes Friction, Not Adds It
Power is only half the story. The other half is getting through the door without thinking about it.
With 3D facial recognition, enrolled users unlock hands‑free as they approach — groceries in both hands, holding a child, walking the dog. No key. No code. No phone.
The curved AI fingerprint sensor 2.0 gives family members another fast way in, with adaptive learning that recognizes worn, shallow, or damaged fingerprints.
Built‑in Wi‑Fi enables remote access through the DESLOC App — no extra hub required. Voice control works with Amazon Alexa and Google Home.
For reliability, the V150 Plus is IP65 dust‑ and water‑resistant, BHMA Grade 3 certified, and stores all biometric data locally — never in the cloud.
Less friction at the door. Less to think about at home.
Validated by Backers. Certified by TÜV Rheinland.
Before today's launch, the V150 Plus had already passed two critical tests:
The market test: More than 755 Kickstarter backers pushed the campaign past $500,000 — making it one of the most successful smart lock crowdfunding campaigns in the past 3 years. It earned Kickstarter's "Project We Love" designation.
The independent test: TÜV Rheinland awarded the V150 Plus its Sustained‑Endurance Certification, verifying that the lock's energy management system actually delivers on its promise — not just that the solar panel can generate power, but that it can support real‑world daily use.
Kickstarter proved the demand. TÜV Rheinland proved the performance. Today, the V150 Plus proves it belongs on your front door.
From Early Adopters to Every Home
Crowdfunding begins with people willing to try something new. A product launch asks a harder question:
Can this innovation fit into everyday life?
For the V150 Plus, the answer is yes. It's no longer a prototype, a concept, or a Kickstarter project. It's a real product, available today, built for real homes.
Not just adding more features. Removing one more thing homeowners have to think about.

Finally, No More Battery Anxiety: DESLOC V150 Plus Launches as the World's First Self-Charging Solar Smart Lock That Works in the Shade
BERLIN, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- ACEMATE today unveiled the S10 Pro, its new flagship AI tennis robot, at IFA 2026. Building on the real-rally capabilities of the original S10, the S10 Pro is designed for more intensive, structured, and match-oriented practice, combining five core training modes, upgraded on-court performance through ACE+ SHOT™ Tech, and a complete AI training loop.
Beyond Rally: Five Core Training Modes
The S10 Pro brings five core modes together in a flexible progression from warm-up and focused practice to match-style competition. Dual 4K HDR binocular vision and omni-directional mobility enable ball tracking and movement across the court. In Rally Mode, the robot catches in-bounds shots and returns the ball from the landing position, helping players warm up and establish a natural hitting rhythm.
Three specialist modes target specific goals. Drill Mode combines target areas and scoring for placement practice. Serve Mode helps players train both the serve and the next shot, tracking serve success, speed, net clearance, and spin, then simulating a return to enable serve-plus-one practice. Ball Machine Mode provides consistent, repeatable feeds and the broadest range of adjustable shot parameters.
Battle Mode turns the S10 Pro into an AI opponent by simulating real-player shot patterns and selecting its own response to each incoming shot. Four preset styles, Defense, Attack, Topspin, and Variety, create different match scenarios. The mode records scores and point-by-point results to assess performance under match-style pressure.
For greater training flexibility, the S10 Pro holds up to 100 balls, features a high-capacity battery with up to five hours of runtime, and operates on hard, clay, and grass courts.
Pro Shots: ACE+ SHOT™ Tech
At the center of the S10 Pro is ACE+ SHOT™ Tech, a new omni-directional launch system that delivers higher ball speeds, stronger spin, wider shot coverage, and more precise ball placement. The system changes horizontal shot direction inside the machine instead of rotating the entire robot before each feed. This design helps the S10 Pro maintain its court position and transition faster between shot placements.
ACE+ SHOT™ delivers ball speeds up to 75 mph (120 km/h) and horizontal coverage up to 180 degrees. Players adjust launch angle from 7 to 40 degrees, trajectory height from 1 to 8 meters, and feed interval from 1 to 15 seconds, with flat, topspin, and backspin options.
Together, these settings move training beyond fixed-direction feeds and give players greater control over pace, depth, spin, direction, and recovery time. Sessions range from controlled technical repetition to faster sequences requiring adjustments in positioning, timing, movement, and shot selection under pressure.
Next-Gen Training: A Complete AI Training Loop
The S10 Pro structures each session around a five-stage AI training loop: Train, Track, Analyze, Review, and Improve. The process connects on-court practice with performance data and follow-up recommendations, giving each session a clear purpose and direction.
Before practice, players select a mode, choose from more than 100 built-in training plans, or adjust custom parameters where supported in the ACEMATE app. During the session, players manage training through a smartphone, a supported smartwatch, or gesture controls.
In compatible modes, the system records performance data throughout the session. After training, the app presents results, AI analysis, and recommendations for the next stage of practice. Players review their performance, identify areas for improvement, and begin the next session with clearer goals.
Pricing and Availability
Regional MSRPs for the ACEMATE S10 Pro are US$2,999 / €2,999 / £2,999 / CAD$3,999 / AUD$4,599. ACEMATE is now accepting deposits for S10 Pro preorders through its official website. At IFA 2026, held at Messe Berlin from September 4 to 8, media and attendees are invited to experience the S10 Pro firsthand at Hall 1.2, Booth 146 and see its training modes, shot performance, and AI analysis in action.
About ACEMATE
ACEMATE develops AI-powered tennis robots combining robotics, computer vision, and intelligent software to make solo practice more realistic, structured, and measurable. In 2025, the company launched its first product, the S10, with backing from publicly listed robotics company OneRobotics (HKG: 6600). The S10 raised $2.4 million on Kickstarter, was named one of TIME's Best Inventions of 2025, won Best in IFA Next at the 2025 IFA Innovation Awards, and received a 2025 ISPO Award.
