I’ve been diving into the world of DIY lighting projects and smart home automation lately, and it’s been a blast!
I recently picked up some Govee Glide wall lights and neon rope lights, and they’ve completely transformed my space. The flexibility and customization options are amazing, and I can’t wait to try more DIY projects with them! If anyone has tips or ideas for creative lighting setups, I’d love to hear them. ![]()

On another note, I’ve been exploring how to integrate different smart devices seamlessly. I’m curious if anyone has experience setting up Away Mode using PLEG for burglary detection. I’ve got a few motion sensors and want to automate notifications when the system detects activity while I’m away. Any step-by-step guides or tips would be super helpful! ![]()

Lastly, I stumbled upon a clever workaround for controlling a Neato vacuum using Google Home and Alexa. It’s not the most elegant solution, but it works 90% of the time! I use a Google Mini to send voice commands to an Alexa device, which then triggers the vacuum. It’s a fun hack, and I’d love to hear if others have similar or better solutions. ![]()
