I agree that if one is happy to setup HA then there is no reason to wait. But the learning curve for HA is still large and if the end user...

Shon replied to whitepuma on Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus Gateway US$16.99 (~AU$24.55) Delivered @ Geekbuying
Both are limited IMHO, but I use a lot less Z-wave devices (mainly their increased cost, and less AU devices available due to the fact it...

Work well. They have been rock solid, unlike my Aqara

Shon replied to bdl on 50% off Sonoff Zigbee Sensors and 20% off Zooz Zwave Sensors + $9.99 Shipping ($0 with $200 Order) @ Oz Smart Things
Thing I learnt about Conbee, is that it has a limit of X instructions at a time. More and they are lost. So if you have multiple devices...

Shon replied to The 10th Doctor on Xiaomi Whale Spout Bidet Smart Toilet Seat US$199.99 (~A$288.85) AU Stock Delivered @ Banggood
Whale Spout has a air filter. I thought I had covid when I couldn't smell any effluent.

I had the original Smartmi, which died after 2 years (this is the way). Bought a Whale Spout as I hadn't heard of any issues. Far better...

Which app? It can use Google Home or Nest App - and both are lacking! The battery life is horrendous, lucky to get 6 weeks between charges...

What annoyed me was to setup the blood pressure on the watch you need to compare readings to an actual BP monitor!

Shon replied to Elephant on Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo T8 AIVI Robot Vacuum $719.10 + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ JB Hi-Fi
The T8 auto-empty station is poorly thought out. It has two outputs with which the suction occurs. So any long item (hair, string etc) gets...

I'm sure it's completely coincidental that Binge, Kayo, Flash etc have giveaways just before they announce their yearly results. "Wow,...

You will have same issues as the Show 8 or 10. I'd suggest mounting a large Android Tablet.

Upgrade your firmware for Disney+, don't expect any other decent apps though. I was hoping for Binge etc.
