Are you tired in the morning? Do you want a soft wakeup? this is the solution, i built myself a IoT-controlled lamp that i can schedule when it turns on and off. I schedule mine to light up about 10 minutes before my alarm goes off in the morning to give me a soft wakeup.

You can also use the IoT dongle for other purpose also, for your Coffemaker as example, the only limits are 250V Maximum power, 2500W, Maximum current 10A.


Material:
First of all you will need a lamp! I made my own lamp, you can watch the tutorial here:

or use any lamp you wish.

And the IOT-dongle can be bought here:
