minus-squareAbsurdityAccelerator@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoWhy a lightbulb though? I considered just getting a smart light switch, especially becauase most of my switches control multiple bulbs.
minus-squareTrepidation@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·1 year agoMost smart switches don’t do dimming, so you can’t do the gradients (5%, 50%, change color, whatever). Most of the time, it’s on or off, binary state. Light bulbs give you more versatility.
