Summary
Smart Nap mode is an innovative battery-saving feature designed for the Neo series hooks. When activated, this mode allows the hook to enter a low-power state, significantly extending battery life between charges. This is particularly beneficial for users who want to maximize the efficiency of their equipment.
Which Models Have Smart Nap Mode?
Smart Nap mode is exclusive to the Neo series models equipped with an autoclose mechanism. The following models support this feature:
- Neo20: ❌ No

How Smart Nap Works
The Neo series hooks utilize a trigger mechanism that allows them to open and close based on the lifting point's movement during crane operations. The automatic mechanism locks this movement.
Smart Nap Behavior:
| State | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Hook is OPEN | Hook automatically enters Smart Nap mode (if the button is set to this option) |
| Hook detects OPEN → CLOSED transition | Hook wakes up from Smart Nap mode |
| Hook is CLOSED | Hook is powered on (fully awake) |
Visual Indicator button:
The blue button on the side of the hook serves as a visual indicator:
- Always On: Blue light is ON (illuminated).
- Smart Nap: Blue light is OFF.
How to Enable/Disable Smart Nap
To configure Smart Nap mode, follow these simple steps:
1. Locate the button on the side of the hook.
2. Press the button.
3. The hook will toggle between modes: Always On and Smart Nap.
To verify the active mode:
- If the blue light is ON, the mode is Always On.
- If the blue light is OFF, the mode is Smart Nap.
Always On Mode
When Always On is selected, the hook remains fully powered, providing an instant response to remote commands. However, this mode consumes more battery, making it ideal for frequent, repetitive operations where immediate responsiveness is crucial.
Smart Nap Mode
In Smart Nap mode, the hook enters a low-power state when opened and automatically wakes up when it detects a transition from open to closed. This mode is best for intermittent use, prioritizing battery life.
Common Questions
- Does Smart Nap affect response time?
No, the hook wakes up instantly upon detecting movement and responds immediately to opening commands.
- Can I use Smart Nap with eMINI or eMAX?
Yes, Smart Nap can be configured directly on the hook without needing the remote control.
- Why is my blue button light off?
This indicates the hook is in Smart Nap mode, which is normal. Press the button to switch to Always On if you prefer the light to be illuminated.
