This week saw Aqara release a new rotary dimmer switch and Stephen picked up the Meross power strip to test. Andrew spends some time explaining how HomeKit Adaptive Lighting works using the Eve Light Strip which automatically adjusts the color temperature throughout the day. We also touch on a half-dozen listening questions including a great idea from Neil there he was used a contact sensor to get notified when his mail arrives.
Most of the episode was spent discussing Thread and why this connectivity standard is poised to be so important for HomeKit accessories as well as the smart home as a whole.
