I think one of these would be great to share any good deals on HA/IOT deals. I just found this:

Energenie Mi - Home Starter Pack 3 Plugs. £51.98

I'm new at this but I think it's a good deal. This has a hub so you can add additional packs of plugs for about £30. They also do lots of other things like switches etc.

Same one is £76 on Amazon.

If anyone has any other good deals please post them here.

I only bought the bulb, so I must be on the mend.

There's light at the end of the tunnel. 16 million colours......

J.pilkington · 02-12-2016 8:37am

Hue go available in a lightening deal at 6pm(for prime members so expect 6.30 for non prime). It's saying 40% off so expect it to be at £42

I got two last night with a view to grabbing a third or even fourth over the weekend if they were good. shouldn't have hesitated

having issues connecting from a network besides my own though

Doodah7 · 02-12-2016 2:55pm

Ha!!! So I went over to my nearest Powercity at lunchtime and they had the TP-Link HS100 plug in one of their glass cases. It was still marked €21.95 (down from €39.95)!!! Said to the guy I will have two of those please. As he was processing the transaction, there then proceeded to be a conversation with another chap. One guy hands me the receipt to pay and collect at the till, while the other one takes the €21.95 special offer sticker off the display!!!

Absolutely LOVE when that happens!!!

Nedved85 · 02-12-2016 9:08pm

Don't shoot me as this is not a bargain alert, more a request.. Anybody know where the cheapest place is to get the Belkin Wemo plugs? Think they work with Google Home. Amazon seem to be out of stock right now.

Until they are sold out. The time limit varies but usually 3 hours.

Hey... Me Too !! I'm looking at it from the point of view that all the additional discounted ones are bringing down the average cost of the earlier ones I bought.

Roen · 04-12-2016 9:32pm

Don't think I have another E27 fitting in the house, got one anyway.

Orion · 05-12-2016 1:30am

Got that E27 colour light earlier. Now either need to get an adapter or a new fitting for the main bedroom light so the Hue go and it can work together.

Not sure if this is any use to us in Ireland, but there are some deals on Screwfix here: http://www.screwfix.com/search?search=energenie#_=p - found it on a facebook group. Interesting to see you can get a power strip that works with the dot, this would be cool for tv etc.

Thanks, the sockets look good, but I notice that they are one way only, IE they do not report their status back to the hub. So inneffext you are firing blind, and if you change the state of the socket manually, then your gun won't know it.

I'd be cautious about anything with that limitation, it's not what I would refer to as "smart" it's more like "moderately educated " :-)
Seriously though, one way stuff is very limited.

Hue Go back on offfer again:

Bought one last week when they were down in price, despite not really knowing if I wanted one. Have to say I'm delighted with it. The only Hue I can think of where you actually want it out on full display as the object itself looks gorgeous when lit up.

Oh and of course portable!

Harmony Ultimate (model prior to Elite - and preferred by some if Amazon reviews are anything to go by) for £120.

Thanks just ordered one. Need two white ambiance bulbs to go with it too for what I have in mind but that's for another day. Sensor qulaifies for free delivery so had to snap it up.

donspeekinglesh · 10-12-2016 9:13pm

Tesco (Maynooth, anyway) has the DLink DSP W-125 plugs for E24.99, which is half price apparently. Picked one up - very easy to set up, and has IFTTT integration apparently.

I did not see these earlier when I was out looking for some more HA stuff I dont need. Where abouts were they, with the regular light bulbs?

Near the TVs Two aisles in front of the electrical desk till.

Had a look this morning, unfortunately the half price wemo plugs were just display boxes, none in stock, probably the same for the wemo bulb starter pack they had display boxes of. He did say they were getting in all the stock from other stores so might be work a look later in the week.
There was a DLink motion sensor had price if anyone is interested and the HD monitor kit.

Back in powercity for a still quite reasonable €24.95

Good availability across the stores. Will pick up one or two tomorrow (one for the Xmas tree that will be going up later this week with its 4 sets of lights, plus another set on the fireplace and two sets outside. Looking forward to telling Alexa to switch them all on

)

In Amazon these are £24.99 (none available) and £34.99 (newer model)
