"computer lights on" "dimmer"

no thank you.. i will use my hand




A device to change the channel on my TV? No thanks; I'll just use the dial on the TV.


let me pick up my phone, open the app for light control, dial in some setting, and hope the app doesn't crash.

TV remotes are awesome because it has physical buttons, and it's fairly dumb... almost no chance of issues.


And if you're on the couch watching a movie and the light switch is on the other side of the room? Or you want to switch on the porch light for guests. Or switch off outside lights?


i get my non-lazy ass up.

For the few times where I may need to walk additionally around the house, it's a non issue


and what if you weren't so mobile?
