Nuki Keypad 2 NFC with Aliro

Last fall at IFA, Austrian lock company Nuki announced plans to ship an update to its keypad that would work with the new Aliro smart lock standard. This week, they started shipping the new keypad. I had early access and posted a video about it. If you prefer a written article, Jennifer Pattison Tuohy at The Verge has a nice post.

Amazon’s Big Spring Sale

We’re right in the middle of Amazon’s “Big Spring Sale”. I made a short list of smart home deals I think are worth paying attention to over on my deals page. We also discussed this list during my live stream on Thursday. If you want more in-depth coverage of this sale, check out my friend Shane Whatley’s video.

A “marriage-saving” smart hook!

This is an exceptional video from The Stock Pot and a great example of how to use a door and window sensor in creative ways. This 3D-printed hook with springs is ingenious. I love how the designs are shared, too, so you can make one yourself. I haven’t tried to make this hook myself, but I would like to soon.

The Schedule

This week I posted two videos. One on Roborock wet dry vacs, which is an amazing cleaning tool I love, and the Nuki Keypad 2 NFC.

Next Sunday is Easter Sunday. There will be no newsletter.

I hope you have a great rest of your Sunday,

Eric
