Oooh, thank you for sharing! New product lineup looks interesting, but I echo other concerns here about it thread maybe eventually requiring internet.
What gap though? Our local IKEA has plenty of lights, smart plugs, etc. available still.
I just bought some spare pieces (remotes, bulbs) just in case
