Smart Home?
[SMOOTH RELAXING MUSIC]
Welcome back guys my name is Eric you're watching Modern Day Tech. Where like to simplify
tech for your life. If this your first time here, today's video is a part of
my HomeKit series. If you're into smart homes I hope you will consider
subscribing. So for full disclosure Vocolin did send this to me,
but that won't sway my opinion in one way or another. I'm gonna tell you what I
think about this if it's good or bad. So my first thing I got to say is, what is
this? This is like... You would never think this is like a smart home item. My
wife loves oil diffusers and when I found this and it is smart home. Whoa! Two
birds one stone. So something for her and something for
me. It is also a humidify if you don't want to use the oil that's fine too and then
you also have this mood light and as you can see is shaped like a flower bud and
I think it's one of the most unique smart home products I've ever seen. I
mean no other manufacturer produces something like this. This is not even
really smart home it's like more like a like an accessory for your house but then it
has all this smart home stuff in it so it's really cool. Not only can you
control the light in the humidity but you can also see the humidity reading in
that room that you have this in plus guess what this not only works with homekit but this works with
Lady a aka and also Google. It comes with the cover which
comes off. That's all that that is.
whoa [Loud bang] and then this is the base that has electronics
it has light and everything on here and you can also put the water in here there's
actually a little bit of water in here so I'm gonna tip it over and then it
also comes with a little filler upper so it's about two of these goes in here
before it hits the max line at that max line running this for about just about
eight hours or so until it needs to be refilled
on the front there are two buttons one for the light to turn that on and off
and then another one for the mist if you hold it long press first time that you
hold it long press it's going on timer for two hours do that again
four hours do it again and and your get six hours if you just hit it on once
you're getting the entire eight hours or until the water is done if you do want
to use this as an oil diffuser you want to make sure your oil is water soluble
oil not so I guess regular oil I'm not into that that's something my wife would
know but I have no clue but she had to stuff we put it in here and it smelled
up the whole room it smelled great alright let's go ahead and set this up
with the app home kit lady a in the awesome rule and see what we get into
like I mentioned this works with home kit lady a mr. G and its own app but
anytime they have something it works with home kit I always start with home
kit it is extremely easy and smooth everything else down the road to do that
open up home kit app and the QR code and you're pretty much done it'll show that
you you are having two things the aroma diffuser and the mood lights then you'll
be able to control each one individually on the diffuser / to minify or you're
actually controlling what level you want that you may that rise - it's not a fan
level as I originally thought if your room is too big you're probably never
reach a hundred percent so I just leave you 100 no matter what and it just runs
its course with the light you can pick what color you want what shade but
that's pretty much all the options you have at home kit you can't do basic
automations with the mood light for instance here when I open the front door
it's gonna turn the mood light to red but that's pretty much all you can do
with in home kit unless you move on to home kit plus which that is a paid app
and then you can actually do things with the actual humidity level as a trigger
but the fun stuff is actually in the vocal link app which by the way they
call link wise and just fustrating that every time i search for the app i have
to remember that's called link wise and not vocal link because it never comes up
under vocal link so hopefully they fix that in
their future but the cool stuff is the special lighting effects you can have
the blinking the flow in the breeze so depending on what you're in the mood for
you can set those up within the vocal link
aka wise and for all my lady and Google fans then forget about you you can
easily set this up just like any other skill go into your app search for the
skill for vocal link enter your username and password and the information will
come right over do you want to make sure it gets copied
over correctly into the correct room and then can use your voice first assistant
or the app to control your flowering bud turn the mood light to red so I'm pretty
impressed with this I love the design that love the features and it's just
different it really is different so I will be updating my full pros and cons
list with a continued update as I use this over the next couple of years so
definitely check out that link down below if you guys want to see in the
