Well well well well, now We are here again with a new compilation of devices, apps and interesting services for our Black Friday in home 2024. This time I’m not just gonna include devices. I also want to mention some app that we think is a little expensive and that we don’t buy… or that service that we didn’t just decide for but that these days has a price that makes it more tempting.
In addition, what we can always do whether you’re going to spend money on Black Friday or not, is check out the services we’re already subscribed to because some make offers so interesting these days that it’s worth renewing the subscription Although we are a few weeks short since we will pay the price with offer when the time for renewal comes. Am I smart? I’m actually the scavenger’s antithesis. I spend my life buying apps or devices to test them and I spend a lot of money… but the good part is, I can check it out and tell you my opinions before you do the spending.
I’m aware that Black Friday’s campaign is already very burned, we’ve loaded the real spirit of last-minute shopping and now there are pages that make almost the Black Month. In addition, we have sometimes seen the price of some product rise in the previous weeks and then make a much lower discount than would have been done on the usual price… but it is true that there are people who have a small budget for these days, not that they will get into compulsive purchases that do not fit their budget, so I do this compilation for all those people who have some money to spend and are waiting for
to solve some real need but save some money.
On the other hand, remember that as I told you last week, during these days of Black Friday I am offering the service of Domotic Consulting in format express for only €40, so that we can have an hour of chat either by videoconf or by having a coffee or a beer or what is tasted and I will try to help you with the decision on what smart lock to buy, how to deploy Home Assistant in a docker on an IP, or how to receive a notification by WhatsApp through IF
TTT when a high school teacher has failed and your eldest son is going home but you’re naked recording an OnlyFans for your followers. In addition, if you have a lot of trouble these days, you can hire the Express Domotic Consulting by taking advantage of the discount but we set it for when it’s okay, or when you get all the devices you’ve bought these days because they’re cheaper. It’s not about creating hype, well yes, but the Express Home Consulting will only be available until next Monday day 2, it’s a special campaign for Black Friday, so it will then return to its usual price.
As in previous years, I will order the items not by discount but by relevance, but keep in mind that it is MY relevance, devices that I consider interesting or very useful for my day to day but that still don’t fit your day to day, huh? For example, I have a cousin who asked me for a recommendation and he has bought a smart lock, now I put it on the list, but he has bought it for his new home… that he has not yet been given! He doesn’t have the keys yet and he doesn’t know what kind of chocolates or anything, but he knows that as soon as they deliver it, he’s gonna put on a smart lock and he’s taken advantage of these days. I hope it won’t be long until I tell you
in the keys because maybe some other more interesting model, the truth. Anyway, let’s go to the mess!
Ring Intercom: Automate the phone with a 62% discount!
I love this mess. I told you about him. in episode 55 of the podcast And I’m more happy every day. Don’t think it’s the typical relay that allows you to send the pulse needed to open the door of the portal, that was done before with a Shelly. The Ring allows you to communicate with anyone on the portal as if it were a phone call even from outside the house so that you can open it to leave it in the mailbox or in the fallow, etc.
Integrates with Home Assistant And from there you can take it to HomeKit and the House app without problems. If you don’t have Home Assistant you can also create a shortcut with Siri to open the Ring app, launch the command to open the portal and close the app… all this thanks to a partner of the Telegram group that he has done so much.
Of course. You can also open directly… or create some advanced automation like I have so that if any of my children press the doorbell 3 times in a row, the door of the portal will be opened automatically..
Ring Intercom with 62% off: €37,99
Netatmo thermostat and intelligent valves for radiators with 44% discount
My favorite option to manage a boiler and its radiators in a smart way And I’ve never had a 44% discount. I’ve been with them a long time, and the truth is, I’m so delighted. The advantage of having Netatmo’s devices is that they can ‘talk’ to each other, so if a radiate requests a temperature above that you have set up at that time, turn on the boiler to heat that room and then it goes out.
In one of the podcast episodes He told you how he had migrated the environments and automations of the Netatmo application to the HomeKit House app without any problems and now he detects the devices at home to know which rooms should have the radiator open and which can be closed.
It’s not the cheapest option, but it’s the one that works best.. Fully recommended, I’ll use it to buy some more valve like every year.
The thermostat for the boiler (not wired, connected directly) with a 44% discount!Intelligent thermostatic valves for radiators with a 31% discount
All Shelly’s relays are on offer with more than 30% off
Whether you buy them in Amazon or if you buy them in ShellySpainbut I recommend you buy them in ShellySpain Because they’ll give you support if you need it. In addition, for products that are not on offer, you can add the SAHUQUILLO code for an additional discount.
I’d buy another one. Shelly EM to monitor electrical consumption and be able to do things like I told you in this blog post and receive an alert when you have an excessive consumption at home or be clear how much you will pay in the receipt of light as I told you in this other blog post.
This Shelly EM has a price that is around €60 normally and is now at 39 in ShellySpain.In Amazon we can find other interesting offers such as the 33% discount that the Shelly 1 Mini has and that makes it stay below the 10 €priceor Shelly 1 Plus is the real good with its 16A supported that has a 35% discount and stays in 11 eurets of nothing.
Smart locks with discount
At this moment of my life and After having tried a lot of smart locks, I recommend only 2 of them.. And not because they have spectacular discounts, there will probably be others with more discount, but these are the ones I like most in November 2024 for their technology, for the little noise they make and for the duration of the battery.
On the one hand we have the jewel of the crown in terms of technology, Aqara U200 that is offered to less than 200 €in Amazon. Today It’s, in my opinion, the best smart lock you can buy.. It’s Matter, the battery lasts a lot, it doesn’t make too much noise… and it’s also compatible with Homekey to bring the key to the mobile or the Apple Watch and just bring it to the pad with the numerical keyboard (or print). Brutal, I’m telling you, today is the best lock you can buy.
But on the other hand we have the Tedee Go offer SOLO on the website of Tedee to 129 €, If she’s not the first, she’s tied up with her. The Tedee battery lasts a little longer than the Aqara, it’s not Matter but it’s going to be compatible shortly (it uses a bridge), it’s quieter and faster… plus less voluminous. You also have the option to buy the outside pad.
At home I have the Tedee Go on. I’ll be publishing a full review shortly.
The Eero Pro 6 at half price!
And to end with the device part, We have the set of 3 routers Eero Pro 6 to 50% on Amazon that you already know It’s my favorite home router.. It’s worth buying even if you don’t need the 3, then you can always sell one on Wallapop. As a Mesh router, you need 2 to create the Mesh network, but you make sure to have coverage throughout the house at a much better speed than a conventional no-mesh router.
In addition, Eero are compatible with HomeKit, so in the House app you will see your devices and briges that try to connect to the Internet and you can block this behavior directly from there, from the House app, without creating rules in the Eero firewall or anything similar. Fully recommended, I have a very previous model I bought right before COVID and today I still don’t change it for anything in the world.
Services with offers
Control for HomeKit at 50%!!!
You don’t need to say anything about Controller for Homekit, you know it’s the app I always recommend to you to manage your home in HomeKit, in fact in my case it has almost completely replaced Apple’s native home app. Recommended to 100% and more today that is 50%. I’d buy it back right now.
Gentler Streak: analyze all your health data
If you are one of those who do sport (and if not, you will be, that from the age of 40 the body asks to move) and you also have an iPhone and / or an Apple Watch, this is one of the best apps that exist to analyze all the data your devices have about your health and do something with them. Some parameters such as heart variation, VO2Max, pulse at night, etc that are not too clear in the iPhone Health app, are analyzed by Gentler Streak and gives you understandable information as if you are incubating a constipated or if you have not had a good rest for days… and then you can organize the activity you practice or know why it looks like you’re going all day.
Traces. I love it, but today more because if you subscribe for one year you pay only 50%, it stays at 27.49 €
TrainingPeaks: 25% off… less a stone
Also for sports lovers, we have the service of TrainingPeaks I think you don’t need a presentation.. It’s true that I only used it to watch the Training Calendar and go organizing the weeks, but since they made that part of payment you could just put day by day the training of the next day or hire a plan of some certified coach to see all the programming, so I decided to migrate to other services that offer more or less the same to that level of training calendar but without all
the power of the TrainingPeaks analysis. The case is that today you have a 25% discount with CYBER2024 code… it’s not much, but if you’re from the faithful to TrainingPeaks, you might want to renew your subscription today.
And little more, I hope you find the device you need and you can save some money… but remember, don’t buy a device just because it’s cheap these days, buy those you need to solve some REAL need, Don’t be like me: D
