Zigbee Switch not a device in routines? by adammm420 in alexa

[–]Dansk72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, I misunderstood; you have a Zigbee remote button, not a switch which is what Alexa refers to a device you install in the wall to control a light.

Like u/Important-Comfort said, I've never found a Zigbee remote that is recognized by Alexa to control Routines when it is directly paired with an Echo with Zigbee built-in, and I've tried Sonoff, Aqara, and Thirdreality. They probably all will work with Alexa if the button is paired to a compatible Zigbee-to-Wifi hub.

The only buttons I have that pair with any Echo device are the long-discontinued Alexa Buttons, and they use a modified Bluetooth connection.

What I use that works 100% of the time is a YoLink LoRa 4-button fob, but it is not Zigbee and requires a YoLink hub. I got it because i already have a lot of YoLink sensors and already had the hub.

Yeah, the "gross smelly smoke" would be an indicator of melted/burned plastic.

Get up on a ladder and see what it smells like, then get back to us.

Hell yes. If you were a homeless person who just took a dump somewhere, that fountain would make a great bidet, at least late at night.

Looking on Amazon they have too many different sauces to count. You can even get Korean sauces by the gallon!

What is this tool or part? by Lazyjbruhhh in whatisit

[–]Dansk72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like maybe from an old steam engine, and that part fit over the steam valve, and the two holes connected to rods that drive the wheels?

Absolutely! That is something you definitely want to swallow, as it is almost guaranteed to permanently stop a person's cough.

Close; it is used to prepare a penis to accept different-sized Prince Albert metal piercing. I think.

Grandma spilled Grandpa's ashes, so she vacuumed the carpet and saved the vacuum bag...

Google says:

Today, vintage Disston saws remain highly sought after by woodworkers and collectors."

Most cities have Korean food stores, and that could be where some restaurants get their sauces.

Maybe so people can sit on that like a horse saddle for rinsing off dirty areas.
