great one. I have fears to the electric outlet. it is because when I was a kid and I plugged a can-opener to a live electric outlet and burned down the plug. I have been stayed away on doing any DIY like this video. I am ok with all battery-powered devices. haha
Is a bridge necessary to control the switch remotely from the app? Also, if I have multiple switches, can they be controlled remotely with the app, or is a bridge required in that case?
