Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Ah i understand. We don't have as many, but our indoor downlights are all the normal sealed led type.

If you aren't adverse to using Wifi, Shelly relays are a good option. They get wired behind the light switch so it doesn't matter what you have on the other end. They have ones that have power monitoring too: Link

This is the wifi switch I'm using with localtuya to control my kitchen downlights.

Thanks! They sound pretty amazing. I've saved your comment for when I decide to go all out. For now I'll try to keep it to the level of not needing an electrician.
