As I was upgrading to Hub v2, I started realizing how much money I have spent over the last couple of years when I first started with SmartThings as a Kickstarter backer. I started out slow, got the hub, a couple of switches, a few multisensors, and a motion sensor. Then every month, I would start a…

And can you imagine I have to get 8 hue whites and a second Echo? I am taking her tomorrow to watch Spectre (James bond) on iMax with wine and dine and promised 3 days vacation at pocono mountains here! :wink: at present set her one of her. Favorite movies “it’s a mad mad mad mad world”!

$1600? Pffft, talk to me when you’ve got a houseful of Lutron devices. $13k and counting. But they’re rock-solid reliable, nice-looking and wife-acceptable (the latter being the #1 priority).
