Can you suggest a solution for outdoor speakers with Google assistant? Is there a assistant attachment for a standard speaker ?

Thanks

How I wish I would be as IT-savvy as you.. so nice your futuristic home. 🤩

Hi Alex! Great video! Waiting on your Smartthings video!

How much is the electricity when adding this smart home? -- Also, how much did it cost you set all this up.

Hi Alex! Thanks for your informative videos. I stumbled upon them when I was thinking of making a smart home and preparing for re-wiring of my house. Would you say that using smart plugs goes in line with using something like Nexenlife's power outlet bars? Or that smart power outlets are more important?

Hi, I just saw your video. Soon I will be renovating my house soon. Just to check do I need to change and install neutral line for all my socket plug?

Hi Alex,
Thank you so much for a great video!
I'm setting up a new smart home now and this is very helpful.
One question, how many of these smart devices can be controlled by Google Assistant? My parents only speak Viet so I really hope to find something that they can turn on/off just by speaking Viet.

Thx for the informative vid! Are there any must dos/things to take note of during the renovation stage for smart home ?neutral wire

[elainetan]

Hi Alex do you have a good electrician to recommend? I need one whom can help to set up the lights for my new unit.

Hi Alex. Amazing video as usual and great info.

I followed your method and did the same thing.

I am asking around telegram to find out more. My MOES switch is all burnt out. The cables are burnt and the switch cannot be used. 1 by 1 its spoil.... even 1 gang to control lights. its not working. i open up. the copper cable is burnt with the burning smell.. Its connected normally by my electrician. nothing out of the norm. i using the non-neutral. its a new BTO. I use only 2weeks. some of it at the start was already spoil. The switch is forever on.

I wondering if anyone you met have such experience. Perhaps can share any solution/causes.

Thank you!

Bought a Mi Smart Clock but have problem linking it to my Google Home Account (error code 83902). Any workaround to solve this issue? The Smart Clock is connected but just cannot link.

[veklinh]

Thanks for your insight! What about Apple HomeKit? Is it still a contender vs Google home?

[iexan]

Thanks Alex for the video 👍Very useful and valuable information

[jhax_]

Can I ask, has your Tuya light switches died before? And how long have u been using them? Because I have a smart home system in my house and my switches keep dying one by one and the price is steep too..

[philipperostin]

The wyze cameras work very well, natively with google

[oscaraya]

Hi Alex great video, do you know if there is a place to test the Moes switches before buy them? We are particular about how they feel.

[jovanleung]

Thanks for the video! I bought the Moes star ring switches, and zigbee hub.

Will Aquara zigbee blinds and contact sensor work with my Moes hub? Thank you!
