Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
Happy Valentine’s Day, spend some quality time with your loved ones, avoid the crass commercialism.
Married. Spadework’s over.
A great sentiment.
My kid’s touch-lamp is out of reach, but they like to turn this on in the night if they wake up.
I had a brilliant plan. Ordered zigbee button and smart switch. It’s out of range so also got a new coordinator with an antenna.
I set up button and switch, connect them so the button toggles the switch, and it’s all working great. I go to the kid’s room, plug the lamp into the smart switch, and turn it on. Press button, lamp turns off, great!
I press the button again. I hear a click to indicate smart switch is on, but lamp doesn’t turn on.
Apparently the lamp switches to an off state if it loses power. My plan is foiled.
