Great Interconnected Detectors
on November 25, 2016
Posted by: Sandjam
from Delaware
Verified Purchase:Yes
They all interconnect via wifi, so when you test one they all test. and they speak the room where the problem is on all the detectors at once. Only drawback is they don't have enough different room names in the app. Cannot make your on custom name.

Nice Smoke Alarm
on November 25, 2016
Posted by: Sandjam
from Delaware
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great sound, fairly easy to setup and speaks which alarm is going off on all the alarms when it happens. That way you know what room the trouble is in. Only 4 stars because they have a shelf life and there is no manufacture date on outside of box, just on alarm itself and you could buy one that's been sitting for a year so you lose a year of life on the alarm.

Neat Bulbs work great, but High Price
on November 12, 2016
Posted by: Sandjam
from Delaware
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have the standard white bulbs through the house (14.99 ea), but got these for the living room. They can go from any color of white to practically any color in the spectrum. They really do create different moods. Easy to use through app and totally dimmable also. Only drawback is the 50.00 price per bulb. Just too high to put throughout the whole house, but they do work great.

Great wireless soft white bulbs
on November 12, 2016
Posted by: Sandjam
from Delaware
Verified Purchase:Yes
These bulbs are exactly like a soft white incandescent bulb (shape, size, color temperature) but you can control wirelessly through the app or Amazons echo. Full dimming capability and a great price makes them affordable throughout whole house. Easy setup. 4 Stars only because they don't come in different brightness's (only 60 watt equivalent)

The Touch surface on the new Siri Remote offers innovative ways to interact with your TV, creating a connected experience with a screen that's across the room. With Siri, finding something to watch is as easy as just asking. And with apps, Apple TV allows you to customize your TV for personal and shared experiences in the living room.

Works Great, Finicky Remote
on October 28, 2016
Posted by: Sandjam

Verified Purchase:Yes
Works great and super fast menus. Remote is super sensitive though and hard to use the touch pad. Also would be nice if you could program your TV code so you can control volume too instead of grabbing another remote. Need to be able to stream other stuff besides apple too.

Great app radio

Verified Purchase:Yes
Great app radio with Apple car play. Nice and easy user interface. Only wish it had a knob for volume. It's all touch screen and adjusting volume while driving is much harder than a knob would be. If you have steering wheel controls than its a non issue.

Interact with Alexa anywhere in your home with the Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device. The compact size is a perfect fit in any room, and the built-in speaker lets you set an alarm or stream music. The Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device plugs into your home stereo speakers or connects wirelessly through Bluetooth.
 

If I take it home and plug it in will it work without a Smart or I phone ?

Technically you do not need a smart phone. There is a PC version of the app you can use to setup your account and settings. However it must be a wi-fi enabled pc/laptop.
There are a few features not available with the PC version. Smart phone is the best/preferred method.

Designed for use with a variety home automation and entertainment devices, this Logitech Harmony Elite 915-000256 remote allows easy control through closed cabinets or walls for flexible use. The remote works with Alexa, and the Harmony mobile app supports simple on-to-go operation.
 

Will this remote allow you to skip to the next day programing while in the TV guide schedule

Anything you can do now on your cable box remote can be programmed.
I have my Sony TV, Comcast DVR, Roku Ultra, Blu-Ray player, Apple TV and programmed and have 100% of the features (including a 30 sec skip for commercials on DVR)

It takes time, but if you program it correctly you do not lose anything. I also check next day forward and back on program guide and also scheduled recordings

Will the Elite remote control the new Roku Ultra?

Yes it works fantastic. I have a activity setup, I just hit the touchscreen and it turns on Roku and switches TV input. You have 100% of functions.
This remote can control anything. If its not in the Harmony Database (which would be very rare) you can manually program from any remote.

Trigger your smart lights with movement. The battery-powered Hue motion sensor can be easily installed anywhere in your home.
 

Can the battery be replaced or is the sensor basically trash once the battery dies?

It takes 2 AAA batteries which are replicable.

Wireless Connectivity-Wirelessly connect notebooks and wireless printers as well as networked home theater devices.Avoid long stringing cables. Freedom to place your home entertainment center anywhere and still connect to the Internet.Universal-works with any network-enabled device. No need to buy a Wi-Fi adapter that only works with one type of device.Option to power by USB port means no exposed wire hanging from the TV.
 

Will this connect a Sony Wireless LAN ready TV ?I have a 2010 Sony

I have a 2010 SONT EX4B / 40 BRAVIA LCD TV.
Model # KDL 40EX40B
It has never been used with the Internet before.
Original equipment called for buying a SONY UWA-BR100 USB Wireless LAN Adapter for SONY WiFi. This product is no longer available from Sony.

Will the NETGEAR - IEEE 802.11n 300 Mbps Wireless Bridge serve the same purpose, and allow me to use the Internet capibilities for my SONY Bravia TV?
Yes this should work, the bridge connects to your wireless network and then you plug the Ethernet cable from the bridge to the tv.
