I could see how lighting control would be fairly simple using WiFi outlets and even WiFi bulbs. Create grids, naming conventions and even mood lighting :p . However, much has been written about the system’s inability to distinguish voices (human in the room from those on TV programs) and not underst...

I doubt it. If even Sam's employees get them and some friends in Texas I think this is just their latest unethical gimmick. Anything to stave off Amazon (Walmart) and Costco.

I tend to switch out blades depending ...

I run mine on 240v (use an adapted 12 gauge extension cord because I didn’t want to cut off the existing plug and plan to use it at another location that only has 120v). The few times I’ve noticed that the increased capability was drilling large bore holes (2 - 1/2 spade bit and some dull 1-1/4 Fors...
