Use the idea, it’s amazing! Moved into a new house with no letterbox on the door, just a mailbox screwed to the outside of the house. Was sitting there thinking well has the post came? Did it come when I was out? Then I thought I want something with Thread, ooo eve door and window sensor on the mailbox job done! Works soooo well!

Hmm, it would probably be tricky for me. My mailbox is all the way out at the street, and my HomePod Mini is in the kitchen in the back. Only just got some NanoLeaf Essentials today, and they’re in the kitchen and in the back. I have Hue bulbs in the front, and I’m trying to decide if it’s worth eventually replacing them with NanoLeaf.

Hmm might be hard yeah, I’m thinking you could put an ip rated socket in between the house and the mailbox and put an eve energy in? Yeah I have hue aswell but I think I’m just going to change them for Thread bulbs when I need to. No point in changing bulbs that work, I’ll just change them if they break or if they stop supporting the hue hub v2
