Have you ever had the experience of turning off the air conditioner before you went to bed at night, and then the temperature and humidity in your bedroom changed unexpectedly and you woke up in the middle of the night feeling uncomfortable?
If you use the air conditioner timer, you can adjust it to some extent, but it is troublesome to adjust it according to the weather every day.
When I was looking for an easy way to create an environment where I could sleep comfortably with peace of mind, I found the perfect item.
Temperature and hygrometer linked to smart speakers
SwitchBot "Temperature and hygrometer" is a temperature and hygrometer that can be linked to smart speakers.
Since the temperature and humidity in the room are constantly being measured, it is possible to send notifications to the smartphone when the temperature is higher than the set value, or to turn on the air conditioner in dehumidification mode when the humidity is higher than the set value. In addition, it automatically helps you adjust the temperature and humidity to your comfort level.
Since I started using this thermo-hygrometer, I no longer have to use the remote control to turn on/off my air conditioner or set the cooling/heating/dehumidifying mode. Now you can spend time in
Small hub learns various remote controls
By using SwitchBot "Hub Mini" and "Temperature/Hygrometer" together, you will be able to link various remote control operations with smart speakers.
Hub Mini is an item that learns the contents of various infrared remote controls and uses infrared controls instead of remote controls.
When operating the air conditioner, you can use it by placing it on a desk or wall within the range where it can be seen from the air conditioner.
In the bedroom, place a thermo-hygrometer on the bedside table so that the hub mini can operate the air conditioner.
If you register the setting to adjust the temperature to your liking, such as "When the temperature reaches 29 degrees or higher, turn on the air conditioner in cooling mode, the temperature is 25 degrees, and the air volume is 1." After that, you can spend your time without worrying about the air conditioner at all.
Smart remote control throughout the house
Since multiple remote controls can be registered and learned in the Hub Mini, you can replace the remote control of not only air conditioners but also various home appliances in the house with Hub Mini. You can
In my house, not only the air conditioner but also the lighting remote control is registered in the hub mini, and the indoor temperature/humidity and lights are set to operate automatically.
Every day, the lights turn on when it's time to wake up and turn off 30 minutes before bedtime.
Even if you feel like staying up late, the room will automatically darken, so you'll feel like you're going to sleep properly.
The smart speaker that works with is Amazon Echo.
Even when you want to turn off the air conditioner and lights when you are out, you can operate them all with your voice, which is very convenient.
As you continue to use it, you will become accustomed to using your voice to operate it, so you will be able to prevent forgetting to turn off the power.
Remote control is possible even when you are out
Even when you realize that you forgot to turn off the lights while you are out, you can remotely control it from the smartphone app.
You can also use it by turning on the air conditioner a little before returning home and adjusting the room temperature to just the right temperature when you get home.
Of course, you can operate the remote control from the app even when you are indoors, so you can put away all the remote controls you originally used and clean them up.
Also, since the temperature and humidity transition log measured by the thermohygrometer can be viewed from the app, you can look back on the changes while sleeping or going out.
I live in Okinawa where the humidity is very high, so this transition log was useful during the rainy season.
Please take advantage of the smart speaker and take in the experience of automatically adjusting your daily living environment.
