I have a DIY project coming up which I need a time control on. I was pointed at some switches which can be controlled by a phone app called Tayu. …<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

  1. A site <\/a>by them. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. A 3rd party video<\/a> explaining the app. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Allegedly, one can use ifttt to manage these switches<\/a>. This gemini response points at a family of services called “Smart Life services”, which has an IFTTT interface\/trigger. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    1. This is one of the switches<\/a> I am thinking of buying and this one has wifi<\/a>. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      I bought a simple switch without WiFi. The wifi switches often require a subscription and there’s more to go wrong and the wiring is more complex. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The device being controlled also needs appropriate electrical control. i.e. on does not become off when there’s no power. 🤭<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
