lot of clearance of wifi connected devices as manufacturers start switching production to things that matter.

Hopefully they still have some when I swing by later. Could use a few more and $3.25/each is a wicked deal.

Are you able to use just one app for both Globe and Prime? Which app?

Anyone know if I can just walk into a costco and ask for a price adjustment? Bought these at $20 a little while ago

Haven't tried to flash to tasmota, but I'm using these on localtuya with Homeassistant.

A bit of a faff to set up, but they've been flawless since.

As long as they still have some in stock, then yes. Unlike returns, you need your receipt though

Maximum amperage? Can they support an EVSE for an electric vehicle?

Grabbed one in Moncton on the weekend for this price. It was the last one on the shelf.

Actually, I think the price might have said "$8.97", but it rang up as $12.97 and I was too exhausted to go back in for an adjustment. ): So check your receipt, just in case!

i haven't tried one app. i don't have a hub either.

we actually have a variety of brands for indoor plugs. they're just installed and set on timers for the most part.

For any price adjustments I’ve done, I haven’t needed the receipt, they look it up. However that said, you can also access all of your receipts digitally, so even then you could also just find the digital version!

...
If they still have stock, buy a set, and go straight to the return counter and have the clerk pull the receipt for the previous purchase to process the return at that price. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

FWIW, I personally don't bother unless it's anything over $20 difference and I am already in the store. Wouldn't make a special trip just to find out that they didn't have stock anyway.

So i'm sure it's been asked in the past in other threads so i'm going to ask it here to annoy everyone. What's really the purpose of these things? Like thinking on my own home I can see it being used to turn on/off lamps without standing up and don't super see the need for that (pot lights for one thing). Maybe xmas lights outside so they're on a timer? Like where do people find use for these things regularly?
