Have been thinking about making this thread for ages actually. I'm glad I'm below Massimo's post so I don't look like a complete zealot
Alexa in kitchen, front room and bedroom. Most lamps are on smart plugs. I have a smart multicolour bulb in the bedroom as well. Looking to get a Tapo hub in the future to allow for smart wall switches and motion sensors too.
My wife likes to put lamps and gooseberry fool on in the evening so I've automated it - you can say "Good Evening" and it'll put on all the soft lamps. Then you say "Good Night" and it'll turn off those and put on our bedroom lamps. Then you say "Good Morning" and the bedroom lamps will go off and the bedroom light will come on.
I've obviously set up the Star Trek red alert stuff with the multicoloured bulb. I can also say "Sex Mode": the bedroom will go purple and Careless Whisper will start playing - hasn't worked yet
However everything is in disarray because I replaced my wireless router last week. Now Alexa doesn't recognise a lot of stuff and half the plugs aren't working. I'm using switches like a strawberry floating caveman
