Since in the topic of soldering, what should I look for in buying a reliable soldering iron? I've bought so many soldering iron that ended up taking too long to melt the lead.

Why Xiaomi doesn’t work with alexa

Out of curiosity, will it work if i have an automation rule "ON-after 1sec-OFF"?

aqara switches is it compatible with google home?

Aqara switch can use in Malaysia?
or must force region to China? Cannot use singapore?

Any reason why u dont want it to be set to China?

Yo! Anyone here with aqara homekit version 1st gen? Heard now it works with Google assistant (and can do voice for Xiaomi aqara switches).

I can't get my XiaoAI to work cos:
1. Banana
2. Kin Jiu Lang

So bought google nest mini gen 2 instead, works for my yeelights, vacuum S5 bot, and sonoff S20, and recently autogate oso 🙂. Now for whole house planning

Can anyone verify this please? Planning to get one instead of waiting for aqara M2 (ZHWG12LM)

Ok that's the confirmation I need, thanks a lot!
U using xiaomi stuff as well?

Can use in China server?

if on "non-China region", what sort of xiaomi does this Aqara hub support?
I own the first generation xiaomi hub and some of their switches and bulb, but there's only the XiaoAi option as voice command. Would like to try the Google integration if Aqara or most of xiaomi sensors are supported.

Hello Kidding again,

My Google home account does not want to link with my Aqara app. My Mi Home links easily. Any idea why it can't sync?

Just did one more 2 Gang this morning. For maximum safety get a detector & off the mcb and test one more time before removing the old switch. Leave the live wire for last & use a long nose plier just to be safe instead of touching the live wire.

1. Don't think got neutral. It is a three gang switch ah?
2. Stable in what sense? Even internet down, both wall switches still can be used manually.
3. Only Aqara need a gateway
