I’ve got three Dots in my house. For the longest time I thought it was completely a waste. My kids like them. I did create some events in Elan so my son can turn his tv on and off with it. Once I figured out routines, I have grown to really like it. I had the Christmas tree with Alexa Control, and at night I say “Alexa Goodnight” and she tells me goodnight, locks the doors, turns off the tv, turns off most lights, and waits 5 minutes to turn off the last lights.
