How utterly retarded.

Believe it or not, bluetooth "smart switches" are actually a thing: https://www.amazon.com/GE-Bluetooth-Smart-Switch-13869/dp/B014LQOE00

For almost same price you can buy an existing product that replaces the switch, actually works and doesn't look like complete shit?! (Oh, and it can turn lights on AND off!)

How the fuck do these people have $50k in funding, do consumers not even bother googling in 2016?

EDIT: oh, and HUNARDS MORE: https://ksr-ugc.imgix.net/assets/014/811/779/b2e1dc08582b6285f9b270f8a051c034_original.png?w=680&fit=max&v=1481176754&auto=format&lossless=true&s=37d720ec1e0030f17f425412eb316fea

  • Some fluorescent lights are not compatible with electronic switches such as that 7day timer. You could get flickering/strobing, be prepared for issues
  • IF YOU WANT THE SIMPLEST SOLUTION~ Get a smart outlet [Levinton is a trusted brand, also Lutron]. Plug in a floor lamp, or mount a plug in wall sconce -into the smart outlet. Then you can easily control the lamp with your phone, program it to your liking. Read the fine print carefully, see what programming options are available with the device you choose. NO WIRING NEEDED
  • IF YOU WANT A SIMPLE PREMIUM SOLUTION~ Go with Lutron wireless controls. This gives you a wall switch you can use as well as the wireless outlet. You still need a floor lamp, or mount a plug in wall sconce. This also can be programmed 7 days, or geofencing which is it turns on when you get nearby. NO WIRING NEEDED
  • IF YOU ARE READY FOR COMPLICATED WIRING~ Those 7 day timers are a pain to program, I would use a smart switch, which you can much more easily program via your phone. Use Bluetoothto talk directly to your phone, if you have reliable and strong WIFI then go with the WIFI version [do your own research into which smart switches are programmable in the ways you desire]. This method is going to require complex wiring, and will be difficult to install. You will need to cut and modify the smart switch to fit it into the cover plate, no we will not install it in the metal box you have.

    Figure out which option you want to go with, then let me know if you need more help [especially if you want to complicated version]
