What else would you like to see added to my smart home this year? What will you be adding to yours?
Frankly, we are obsessed with Nanoleaf Essentials thread stuff with the HomePod mini in our house. So fast to respond! We will likely be adding more of those in the smart house this year (and a vid coming soon)
Is there any way I can contact you. please advise.
@@smarthometechnologee How about a 200 pound dog to guard your house?
I would love to see more smart lights GU10
Socials DMs should work.
I imagine watching this again in another 20 years feeling “ omg that’s old!”
Most people will look back at it saying wtf did I do that for!!! I have completely given all my privacy away to government and hackers!
Fortunately we can always call it retro and say that it is driven manually !
@@GodsChild145 you can do all that offline you know. You have already given your privacy away to government and hackers by simply having a phone.
@@OHCAM5 yeah lol, the only thing that can happen is a blackout... then we're fucked
@@diegogervasoni3432 most of these things can be operated manually if needed so not really
Finally a youtuber that cares about their viewers smart device . Thank you for muting the magic word that will trigger our device (:
I wasnt sure why he muted but now I know.. thanks
I kept looking for the Google Home Lip Reader
ohhh, thats why, hahaha
Shazam!
Ho is watching in 2009
I use my Alexa for a lot of different tasks^^
When I say "it's warm", she activates the cooling fan; when I say "it's cold", she activates the heating fan; when I do my laundry, I use Drop In to hear the machine's beeping notification, when it's done; Good morning reads the news and turns on LED strips; Good night turns the LED strips on 1% red
For dark bathrooms and dark hallways, we have installed electrical plug covers that have a small LED strip in the bottom of the cover. It has clips on the cover that touch the sides of the electrical plug when you put the cover on. It also have a light sensor built in and it only comes on when it is dark. It provides plenty of light to see where you are stepping when walking around at night or going to the restroom and uses just a small amount of electricity at night. No automations and it is always on and available for use when it is dark.
We also installed some underbid LED light strips that have a motion sensor that comes on when you get out of bed. You can control the time they stay on, the intensity, and the colors of the light strip. It even has a remote to go along with it. It comes with two devices so you can put a light strip on both sides of the bed when two different motion detectors, so whoever gets up, the other side doesn't come on too unless they get up as well.
2 Pack - SnapPower GuideLight 2 for Outlets [New Version - LED Light Bar] - Night Light - Electrical Outlet Wall Plate with LED Night Lights - Automatic On/Off Sensor - (Duplex, White)
Under Bed Lights, LEHOU 6.56ftx2 Motion Activated Illuminated RGB Include Warm Color LED Strip Light Kit Motion Sensor Night Light with Automatic Shut Off Timer for Bed, Cabinet, Stair, Toilet (Double)
I tried to post links to the Amazon page for each but it wouldn't post. So I just posted the title of the product instead.
Thank you for muting the "Hey Google" parts!
@ brett..muting it....is that for security reasons or video editing reasons?
The reason is that if you are watching the video next to a Google speaker or have Google Assistant on your phone, my voice will still active your device and make them to start going crazy. So it makes the viewing experience much better.
Lol. He mutes it because, if not, your phone and other smart devices (if you have Android, will be going off each time he says it - unless you're watching with headphones.
@@SuCoGoddess bruh, he literally said that 4 days ago
@@TechWithBrett actually, idk about you, but I recommend having google learn your voice so it's harder for others to activate your smart devices accidentally (or otherwise)... I'm not sure how that works for the google home devices though
A less expensive option for a closet or bathroom where you want the lights to turn off when vacant, but doesn't really warrant a full smart switch is to get a motion-sensor switch. Lutron makes a nice one. It will turn on when you enter the room and has a configurable time to turn off after no motion is seen. I put one in our laundry room since my wife often forgot to turn off the light. It works great. Now adding them to closets, pantry, and back hallway. Saves money over a smart switch or smart switch + motion sensor for those areas that don't really need any additional automation.
Congratulations on getting fiber optic I got mine in March last year except for 3 days when someone cut the main wires coming into town it has worked perfect. Your smart home looks wonderful! I hope you enjoy it every day. And one last big congratulations congratulations on your next child. Take care and thank you for the home tour
Beautiful smart home, and congratulations on your new baby.
Congrats on the new addition to the family!
Finally a new house tour!
All the best to you and your wife and have a blessed weekend
I love how it switches from "I am a child of God" in the bathroom to "You keep me safe, I'll keep you wild" in the bedroom lol
And the kids room has a "my gospel standards" poster
Well it's framed but still kinda a poster
@@Shadow__X I thought the same thing. However, the two are not mutually exclusive. You can achieve both things in a healthy relationship. Seems like they got balance in their lif and tech in their home. Loved watching the video (pardon our fun at your expense)
@@kxp1996 is this spam or did you just not get the point of my comments?
I don’t think you get children without getting a little wild.
Omg this looks so nice! I usually stay away from smart home stuff but I think now I’m gonna start setting things up. It all looks so nice together and is really clever how some of them work together like that.
Brett Amazing Video as always, Glad you also mentioned the time because it does take time to get it just the way you want.Much respect for mentioning the names as well.Congrats Deb. 💯👌✌
Well Done Brett! One video you may consider is to include your wife and children and how they find the smart home integration. I have a much smaller integration and my wife at first complains about how the system works, but then seems to adopt the new technology, and would now complain when it’s taken away. Thanks for your helpful videos and your calm cool style to share your knowledge of smart technology, keep up the great work!
Nice home Brett. Thanks for the tour of your very smart home. 👍
Beautiful And Outstanding Home! You've Done Well With All The Cool Toys! Stay Safe All Of You! Thanks Brett For Everything! God Speed To You And Your Family! 🙏💖💕
I am first and I know that tech with brett is amazing all 344k subs deserved
Thank you for not saying "Hey Google" I can't tell you how many people other than me have turned off something in my house 🤦
That is hilarious. An episode of Big Bang Theory where they turned off somebody's lights in Thailand or somewhere from the apartment in Cali lol.
Automation is amazing. The only reservation I have is the reliability and durability of the system, as well as the maintenance cost when required.
The tip with having smart light switches is so useful! I always end up having hue lights offline that I then can't control via my echo or phone because the switch is turned off. Really enjoyed watching the tour! :D
Smart light switches are the best. But I have the Smart bulbs so I ended up buying switch covers so people don't turn them off.
Another Great video, thank you for sharing Brett.
Congratulations on the new baby!!!
I was wondering how you used ‘Turn on the lights’ in each room and then you explained how it was room specific. Thanks!
Where is the time marker for that?
I talk about it in the bedroom section.
About 14:10 ish
I love all things smart tech. There is a cost though and I would like to know how much energy your house uses with all items off. Meaning the parasitic energy loss from having all these devices on standby waiting for commands.
I wouldn't imagine its too much. My smart bulbs use about $1.08 per year according to Sengled.
Awesome. Working towards my smart home this year. Started with a TP link switch that you have.
Great tour! It’s interesting how there are so many devices I’ve never even heard of! That sink is crazy!
And there are more new products everyday. I will never be able to collect them all.
Amazing!! Greetings from Peru!!
All this computational power so that I won’t have to look anymore at when the bottle is full and turn off the faucet. What a time to be alive.
Ridiculous.
I just wanna say thanks for dimming the volume when you said ‘hey google’ those ads always set mine off 😂
Lovely house!, thanks for sharing this, it will help me decide what I need for my new home!
dude, CONGRALUTATIONS!
Great job 👍
Don’t know if this help you but our ceiling fan had a “dim” light too and after a few weeks we realize that you hold the remote light button to adjust intensity. It might be make it a little more practical.
Great video! Question: Have you seen a increase in your internet bandwidth usage? What is your network setup? I currently have the legacy Google Wifi with two extra repeaters. I noticed my internet usage jump when I added 5 Nest cameras.
I decided to watch to get some ideas of what’s possible. I have to say, many of these use cases are advanced ways to flip a light switch. I think home automation is still a solution waiting to find a problem in many cases. I cringe at the thought of all those controllers laying around the house, waiting to be lost and/or run out of battery power.
Nice smart home & reviews. Lets hope FINALLY this year google adds a zigbee hub to there 2021 home hub refresh (fca says yes)& FINALLY let's 3rd party access to routines like amazon does. Need a smartthings sensor to trigger home automation within google home. Please.
Great video thank you for this! Gave me some ideas. The only thing I need is smart shades
Some great stuff :) I only just started with a few things in a small home but yours is nicely done. Nice tip on the grouping thing so a hub just controls things for the one area/room
Finally a home tour
Thank you Brett👍👍👍
Amazon now sells LED Garage lights that work very well to brighten your garage. My wife is a teacher who is currently using our bedroom as her virtual classroom. The lighting in the room is horrible for the video classrooms that she does. As a quick, cheap solution, I bought her one of these lights to use in the bedroom while she is teaching and it has worked great. I made a quick video of me installing it and the difference it made. I won't spam the link here, but let me know if you'd like to view. Love your videos, just starting to build a smart home with Alexa and some Wiz bulbs and also using a couple of Wyze Cameras for security. Great info on this channel that I will use when my wife lets me spend some more... : )
Great idea and it's always good to be prepared with new ones!
Great tour,thanks Brett
Such a professionally well put together RUclips video thank you so much
I’m loving all the automations, what a great video! I’ve been debating on smart blinds, but the automatic closing was amazing, might have to go to Ikea and pick some up for a future video we do.
I still need to test their or but it really is so nice to have them open and close all on their own.
Where did you purchase your blinds from? Also what brand are they? Both living room and kitchen. I especially like the blinds in the kitchen
@@KitKatsTube i was looking for a while as well. There is no reliable brand (at least I wasn't able to find) . Only MySmartBlind by Tilt looks like having something acceptable, but 150$ per window. Brett, what are you using?
Just found that Brett did a video about it, so he uses MySmartBlind with Solar panel, so be ready to spend 200$ per window. Unfortunately there is nothing else available at the market..
Ikea?? I haven't seen many options there???
this is what people in the 80's used to dream about
My favorite tech channel. ✌🏼
Hahaha! Awe thanks 😊
This video made us feel that everyone can freely combine to achieve smart home automation.
Can you make a full list of all the smart home products u have
Check his amazon link in description he is having full list on Amazon
I finally made one for you! techwithbrett.com/my-smart-home-tour-2021/
I always think that I should be close to having everything I need but then I watch one of your videos and I get into the "I want that" mode. We have a couple of Ikea smart blinds that work well but I need some Switchbot smart curtains. Maybe more motion activated automations. Thanks Brett!
Sorry not sorry... lol. I really think there is a ton more I can do with some of the motion automations.
@@TechWithBrett I set one up in my furnace room with Smartthings and it's not great and it's probably because of all the electrical interference and distance from a WIFI point. Need to work on it to get it right
Smart curtains?! *Gone to Google*
Amazing home devices, great tour house.👍
This was a great video. Showed a lot of amazing possibilities. I wanted to ask a few things. The first thing is how you set your lights up to be automated and controlled by a switch? I would appreciate any help you can give me.
I absolutely love your videos. I've been growing my smarthome for the last year, but there is only so much you can do in an apartment 😭
When we get a house next year, I will enjoy having a nest thermostat, a ring doorbell, a Google hub, and some smart blinds. You just showed me a lot of things that I didn't know existed!
Hey Brett, how do you use multiple Google hubs/home minis in multiple rooms which are nearby. Mine triggers in one room if I ask another hub from another room.
Phillips hue seems like a cool addition, thanks for the wall switch tip.
your home is amazing. I LOVE IT 😍😍😍😍
Very cool, can see a lot of this being very convenient (especially the shades) - though some of the lights are a bit overkill imo, and I think using a single assistant for everything is more ideal
Yeah lol some are a bit trivial. It’s cool to see the commitment to making it as smart as possible. I Would rather make my entire home smart then do half smart and have basic
Good stuff!
Hey man! I have a long way to go to catch up to your epic smart home.
Can’t wait to watch the full thing tonight. How do you like the ring? I feel like the ring 3 was a total sham. All sorts of subscriptions needed to get the full value
I really liked using the Ring Video Doorbell Pro. Ring can now auto display the video feed on Echo devices and that was my only real compliant when I used it. ruclips.net/video/vz9SbUljsI0/видео.html
This is so amazing! I didn't realize you can do all this in the home and its so awesome. I look forward to see how all this tech evolves over the years. Just seems like too many gadgets a the moment
samsung are phasing out their hardware line of smart home devices to mostly concentrate on software, in the UK it is is almost impossible to find smartthings hub or the switches
TP-link kasa will soon be releasing hardware. Almost identical to what samsung used to sell.
Samsung is making home items like Samsung branded dishwashers, ovens, fridges and even laundry machines to come with hub integration
Thanks for all your videos, you help me a lot with tech advice, thanks for this video : D
Hi Brett! Fantastic that you showed you're home. I love it with all the technology. Hubs Google home Philips hue. But it's different here in Sweden to get what I want. Thanks for the video 📹 👍
Love the setup. You should try the Bond hub bridge for your fans. I use it for both my ceiling fans on two different floors and it runs both by voice or with your phone app.
I just need more IR fans. Glad to hear it is working well!
@@TechWithBrett Why? You already have Lutron for at least one fan, and some of the shades, why add yet another device controller? You already have too many as is.
Great Video!
Nice job Brett. You have an impressive smart home!
Thank you!
Great video! Love smart homes! Makes life easy.
Love your smart home tour Brett thanks for sharing! & love your time stamp in your video. So need a home like yourself awesome 👍Congratulations to your beautiful family with the pending arrival 👶
Using Home Assistant can connect all the smart devices.
I think he's going to have to use home assistant soon because apparently smart things is on its way out !
Nice video! Love the writing on the bathroom mirror - nice reminder
You helped me a lot with my smart home
How many time are you saying « SMART » 😂 Nice video !
Hopefully I said it more than saying Shmart.
Have you ever thought about using something like HomeAssistant to move everything in one system?
@@ecard0 I have heard good things about it. I might try it out one of these days.
I love your Latter-day Saints stuff around the house, especially your quote on the bathroom mirror.
Great video, really like the faucet
Super cool Smarttek with smoothie and smarties.
Dazzling on approach and landing.
Wow this is actually the future, today.
I think it’s funny how all these tech reviewers awkwardly stare at their Google or Alexa when they give it a command and wait for it to respond lol overall good video
Thank you so much for sharing your Smart home knowledge 👍
Awesome video, all your videos are super helpful. Just curious, if i have a basement suite and wanted to add smart devices but separate of my main house (ie tell Alexa to turn all lights off but not control the basement lights) how would you recommend setting that up? Do i need separate HUBs or just do within Smartthings/Alexa app? Thanks for any help!
You need at least 3 more smart hub products! :)
Don't tempt me, haha!
@@TechWithBrett You know you wanna! I'm pretty sure you can fit at least two more on that shelf and if you get creative with magnets or hot glue you could easily mount another 3 on your switch 😂
Wait till the power gose off and back on again lol
I can't remember the last time the power did go off, but it will be fun to see what happens.
And this is why you get Inovelli switches which far outperform anything else on the market.
@@RohanShahm whow
Great video. I'm doing a new build and doing allot of this. I'm debating on which smart switch to use. I'm doing every switch approx 45 switches. I'm leaning g towards wifi solution. C by GE or Levittown. I see you have many different kinds. What would you suggest for whole home?
Wow!You did a great job
Im not good at English, however I understand it's amazing.
nice walk through. although, we get to see the bane of smart home functionality. Even Samsung's smart things features like scenes, automations, cloud based triggers, etc can be aggravating at times. It is critical to know the limitations and design factors (local control vs. internet reliance for example) to ensure fallback to primitive usage. otherwise, guests and family will not like; and the DIY'er unless you have years of patience can get tired of chasing issues too :).
samsungs smart devices suck thats your problem, hubitat solves all those issues, this dudes entire house is a cobbled together mess of random switches assistants and devices thats also why he has so many issues 3 different brands of light switch all in one 3 gang panel what a joke
Hey Brett great video, a question can you provide the link where you purchased the TP link multi-port switch?
Great job and true smart home! Very good for smart lighting control. I'd like to see you can recommend home protection and safety devices. Like protect water damage solution, power outage alert and protection,.. Thanks!
Ooo first!
Well done! Now you need someone to decorate your house.
Don't tell that to my wife...
I think the house is beautifully decorated
I didnt know it was roo. Spacific. I've always said turn on kitchen lights or what ever to make sure it knows which lights I want on
Loving the tour Brett. By the way, you have a really lovely home. Glad to see you vacuumed before recording! 😂
We did a bit more than that. Took me a whole week to clean! Kids got it back to normal within a day.
@@TechWithBrett Sounds like the story of my life. Two young girls, I feel the pain of your mess! Brett, keep up the good work. Still continue to watch every video you release. Even when I feel like I know everything about a product, I still always learn something new from you.
Since when has turning on a light switch been such a difficult and strenuous task
I know right? And what about filling a bottle of water!
My favorite thing with smart devices is when “ok google “ doesn’t always work
Right!? Lol
Totally. It irks me because I never know for sure
Also I may talk too fast for it to register so there’s that too 🤷♂️
I like the lets get started thing.
Amazing! Still watching it.👏👉🙏👉🚀
12:20
Imagine if the kids find out how to use all these smart things and start messing with them.
4:14 Noice
Amazing video! Very detailed and informative
I needed this to do my research - thx for the vid
Excellent video Brett! And congratulations for the new baby! I like your house is almost completely smart!!! Nice!!! Non-tech question apart, are you LDS member?
