WiFi on a light bulb?.. I think keep my £25, stand up and switch it off myself.

Do you get up and change the TV channel every time too??
What's the difference??

Here in the 21st century, I can tell a machine to do this for me with my voice.
Shall I strap myself to the stake and wait for the flames? :stuck_out_tongue:

I'm a gadget freak, love my harmony remotes & control loads through wifi.
However I have to play devil's advocate here. Turning the TV over you do multiple times a day or night, a light you tend to switch on or off just the once.
TV's now all come with remotes, so it's hardly fair to compare. You can also get an led bulb for about a fiver, so this is FIVE TIMES the cost to negate standing up once & switching the light on (you pretty much always only switch the light off as leave the room & the switch is almost certainly right next to the door you exit from so that's not an issue).
That's a massive markup to save your legs moving just once an evening imo.
Now if I had this kind of cash to throw away on a whim & a huge income, then I'd of course have them all over the house, but as it's stands it just isn't worth it for me, & I imagine many others feel the same.
As time goes by & these type of products inevitably drop in price then you'll see a much larger adoption rate, but currently I doubt they'll become mainstream or even close.

its good as you can set it to come and off by timer or by remote on your phone, good visual deterrent if away.
or when you come home with shopping ask alexa to turn the light on is handy.
I love mine although i got the multicloured version via amazon for £36.
