      Need a video on applications for smart devices and pets "alexa give Bowzer a treat" "Alexa, flush dog water bowl and refill" Alexa Pet and talk to Bowzer on a schedule" (Using a device that contains your odor and uses your voice with cnc arm/hand that tracks animal and scratches and/or pets it....could even have a monitor to do live interface with pet....and btw contrary to popular opinion dogs CAN see video....it's just whether they are interested or not which most are not ....some are VERY however! VERY ...We had a german shepherd (RIP Luca) who LOVED to watch TV ...his interest was waiting for ANY kind of animal to appear at which point he would jump up right in front of the screen and growl and bark....in his last couple years after going quite lame from myelopathy it became one of his few pleasures in life ...we tolerated a lot of barking just because we loved the old guy so much ...I'm thinking that if puppies were worked with early on they could warm up to and appreciate video links with their owner for the rest of their life? For people who work and have a a dog stuck at home alone it might be a great way to improve quality of life when your not there? AND when dog barks your phone could alert you and you could access camera feeds to see what he/she was barking at! Maybe even a camera mounted ON your dog so it turns on at the barking and both records and allows owner access to see what the dog sees! Then give a dog a treat for good work!

    Hello, great video. I'm in the process of installing smart lights in my home that can be voiced controlled via Google Home but I have one major problem. The kitchen lights use tube light bulbs. I don't believe that there are smart tube light bulbs on the market yet, is that correct? I was able to attach a smart plug to the ceiling, however my girlfriend (who lives with me) isn't very good with technology so she'd like the option to flip the old light switch - which is an option for smart lights, but smart plugs don't turn on the lights at the flip of the light switch. At least I haven't been able to figure it out. If you have a solution/suggestion, I would appreciate it. Thanks!

    Beware all: plugging something in won’t necessarily turn it on. My humidifier for example, once plugged in, will be ready to be turned on but it won’t start humidifying. There needs to be a manual on/off button for that to work.

While yes I can turn off or on the power supplied to that unit, it will not turn on the device. Do you or have any ideas for this?

    1st thing your dog 🐕 is adorable 🥰:D other thinkg 💭 you just made me realise I need this plug and gift 💝 it to my mum as she always messages me after leaving for work to ask me to go to her room and check if you unplugged her straightener or iron !! Also for a Christmas 🎄 tree as the plug is always behind this huge tree we got and it’s a pain to get there and turn on/off and the entertainment system absolutely needs it too as there is 7 things connected to extension cable and it’s never turned off so satellite tv and Xbox get overheated and we end up with huge electric bill

    • @TheNobleLoyalist
      @TheNobleLoyalist Рік тому

      I may suggest it could be because electric blankets have on/off switch as well as levels of power (lowest heat to highest heat) and some have a timer that you can set AND/OR the blanket itself has a non-adjustable timer that turns the blanket heat off after so many hours.
      The smart plug may be interfering with that process.

  • @RyanShanks
    @RyanShanks 6 років тому +6

    They seem like they would be handy but at about $50 I don’t believe they would pay for themselves just off phantom draw any time soon.
    If we assume an item draws 2 watts phantom power (fairly standard for a tv) and does it 24/7 then it uses about 17kwh per year which costs only about a dollar or 2 here in Ontario, depending on time of use. It seems to be reasonable to estimate it at $1 per watt year, so you’d need about 100w of phantom power draw if you wanted to break even after 1 year and have your plug on for 12 hours and off for 12. 100w is a lot more phantom power than you’d likely have.
    As such I think it’s really just for convenience in most cases and not really that cost effective (at least not unless significantly cheaper ones come out)

    • @airules2007
      @airules2007 5 років тому +1

      Replying to a year old comment, but also the smart plug itself isn’t free in electricity use.
      In tests it tends to run around 1W so while you are cutting the electricity use in half, you aren’t getting rid of it entirely.
      The ability to shut down big electric drawing items on a timer seems like the best case for managing the total draw, but even that you could do with a dumb timer switch.
