Yeah, I think they had a bad run when they first came out, 2-3 years ago.

It depends on your PC. Some shut off the USB ports when they power down, mine doesn't, and so it stays on. You can also use an external USB…

I think you're confusing "deodorant" with "antiperspirant" - it's the latter that has aluminium chloride in it, to stop you sweating; the…

Agreed. Decent magnet, decent lock; and it'll go way out without bending if you need to hook something you can't reach.

I copied-and-pasted it, including the space that came after it, and it only had two S's in the post at that time.

I think Aldi had these the other month, and nobody bought them, and so there was a pile of them at my local the other month.

I haven't seen any such complaints, and have about six LIFX lights. Are you sure it's not your WiFi dropping out?

These work with Home Assistant (once you add them to your wifi network).
