Eve Debuts Thread-Enabled Eve Energy HomeKit Smart Plug

I would love to get these (if they're available in Germany) but I had the original smart plugs (2 of them) and they both had a very noticeable whining/beeping noise when they were switched on which was incredible annoying for me. Don't know if that's fixed here.

Same thoughts as I read the article, if they’re available in Germany.

You want life changing, get married, have kids, sign them up for hockey. That’s life changing.

Thanks but no thanks.

Thanks but no thanks.

If you go in to it realizing you have to change your life it’s not a bad thing. It’s lucky enough to have waited until I was ready and met the right person for me.

That's a good answer but I assume these products still have to connect to WiFi. They aren't just magically interfacing with your WiFi network.

I have plenty of smart home devices that 1) use Wifi 2) Don't slow it down 3) Don't require any hubs. 4) Don't have any connectivity problems.

5) Require a degree in electrical engineering with a dual major in network engineering.
