Attic work in the summer 🥵, at least u got a big attic. Good work bro!

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

It was certainly much easier than cutting a bunch of holes in my ceiling.

This is Fabulous Brett. I'll be showing it to my Son, (who is an electrician), as he's been so kind to offer to do all electrical work in our House. Thanks, JaneLee - in Suburban Philadelphia 8/5/23

I just finished putting in smart switches throughout the house. My wife would have a COW if I wanted to do this 😂. I think my kitchen might need these. Good job 👍

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

In our old place the kitchen was the first place we did this and it made a huge difference!

@timothyfeilinger6806 11 месяцев назад

Great work! I would also install an Inovelli blue smart switch for manual control without loosing voice control.

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

Great idea.

@gedgicat2063 11 месяцев назад

Nice video, with some great tips and info.

@Max86421 11 месяцев назад

I like it! 👍

@davidallred4266 11 месяцев назад

We are building a home and the builder charges too much to install can lights. You showed how easy it is to install your own. Thanks for the information!!!!

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

As long as you have attic space it is pretty easy. If it is in a basement it is doable but a bit more work. Congrats on building a home!

Loving the videos and have learnt so much. Can I please ask what app you use to record/display your phone screen and touch points. I could really use something like that for user guidance creation at work. iPhone and Android recommendations please. Thank you so much in advance and keep up the fantastic videos.

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

I am just using the built in Screen Recorder in the Android quick settings. I then use a .png overlay of my phone's border to give it a finished look.

@markgreen5007 11 месяцев назад

@@TechWithBrett huge thanks. Always watch along, just a shame many item you can get, we can't have over here in the UK.

@Max86421 11 месяцев назад

Nice! It's similar to WiZ smart lighting, only thing is missing is the smart button 😊

@zunkman1 11 месяцев назад

Another great video. When you wear that shirt, I keep thinking I need to press Play on my device.

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

Lol, maybe I should wear a shirt that has a big Subscribe or 👍.

@hihihihihihihihihello 11 месяцев назад

you should setup home assistant and get a stream deck

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

I have the stream deck so I'm half way there.

@tannermorris8956 11 месяцев назад

So I know you said this works with Alexa and Google home, so I’m assuming it works with Home Assistant as well?

@batoj 11 месяцев назад

nice video, i may get these, what kind of switch do you use for these?

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

Just the standard light switch. The switch will operate them on and off but it is best to keep the switch on and use the remote or voice assistant to control them.

@batoj 11 месяцев назад

@@TechWithBrett Great thanks for the info. Does a special light switch have to be used since they are LED? I've noticed some of my retro fit canned lights flicker on a dimmer switch and I read it may be due to using an older light switch.

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

Yeah I have seen that on dimmer switches so just make sure it is a standard switch and it should be fine.

@latinhorse75 11 месяцев назад

Very nice, What happens if you lose your internet, is there any other way of controlling them? I know the whole idea of using this is, so you don't have to install a switch. Thanks

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

The remote will work without Internet because it is using a Bluetooth signal. You just wouldn't be able to use voice commands. I don't think the app would work.

Brett, "Mom and Dad, we have a brand new house and I'm running out of projects to film for RU-vid. Can I come over and start doing more projects at your house?" Brett's Mom, "Okay, but don't make a mess!" Brett's Dad, " You realize son, you're going to have to show us how to use this stuff at least 10 times... a week. We love the grandkids and everything, but is it worth it?"

@TechWithBrett 11 месяцев назад

Haha! Are you listening in on a wire? We have had these exact conversations.

@usa-earth 11 месяцев назад

@@TechWithBrett So... Reed of course has his home automated to the next or highest level... It could, would in fact be really nice to see someone doing some of that from the ground up. Even with your new home, I think autoations would be an excellent direction to go, then if that is successful, how do you do automations at your parents' home to make them work and not be too technically challenging....
