 Welcome to my unboxing of the Belkin Wemo, which is not related to the Wii at all. It's spelled differently even. And the new Wii is the Wii U, not the Wemo. Okay, sorry, sorry, enough of that. This is actually really cool. So the whole like wireless home control thing. Like we've been talking about this for years now, you know. You're on your way home, so you want to like preheat your oven, so you turn on your oven or whatever. Like network controlled devices, you know, we've got smart TVs now. This is a way of taking dumb devices, or well devices that don't have any built in logic, and controlling them using your iPhone. So they're calling it the iPhone Home Remote, and you can set things up evidently. We're going to be doing a full NCIX Tech Tips about this, so you know, stay tuned, right? So it's great for controlling things like your, okay, I can't imagine why you'd need to control like an iron. You're going to iron shirts, you turn your iron on with a remote. Okay, whatever. Hair curler. Okay, heater. There we go. Heaters and fans. This, this I believe, because you know on those summer nights you can't fall asleep first because it's too hot, and then because the fan is loud, so you can like tinker with it, you know, from bed with your iPhone, whatever else. You can set schedules, which is kind of neat, so you can do that with the software as well. With multiple Wemo switches you can control as much or as little of your home as you'd like. Wemo runs on your iPhone and your WiFi network, it's all easy to set up and use. So it works on anything from an iPhone 3G I believe, up to, yeah, iPod Touch 3rd generation, iPhone 3GS and later, and any iPad generation of products. So let's go ahead and. Okay, apparently I missed two of the half a dozen or so stickers on the back of the box here. So we can go ahead and check it out. I'm not expecting to find anything sort of revolutionary in terms of the hardware in here, but I'm really excited to check out the software app. So there's your quick install guide. Plug the thing in the thing. Download and install Wemo app from the App Store. Settings and so connect to your WiFi network. Oh, select WiFi, connect to Wemo network. Launch the Wemo app to complete this. Oh, okay, so you'll be able to complete the setup once you're in there. Okay, that's kind of cool. So this is fairly straightforward. You've got a three pronged plug. Although if you're in a different territory, it's likely that the plug will look different. You've got one switch. This is disappointing. I would have really liked to see two switches with some kind of, with two, like two pass throughs with two full sets of logic inside and one wireless chip set. I think that way we could have gotten more functionality out of this device without actually adding necessarily that much to the cost of it. Although what do I know about what they cost? There's a power button here. There's a wireless indicator. There's a restore button, which using doors only. Restore factory settings. Ah, okay. So to restore factory settings for whatever reason you wanted to do that. I don't know what else to say about this. So let's move on to the next one. This is the Wemo switch plus motion. So not only do you have this software wireless switchness going on, you've also got a motion sensor. So you can turn it on, turn it off, and you can activate it with motion and you can control all of that. See, I want my stuff to turn on then off, turn off or on only, turn on slash off if motion. So that's pretty neat. Let's just kind of open this up and find out how much different it is. So it's basically another one of these. And then one of these. Which is, oh okay, so this is two completely separate doodads. No, this is similar. Oh, neat, okay. So basically once you synchronize and get all of your Wemo devices set up within the app, you should be able to kind of tinker around with it on a pretty granular level. So we're really looking forward to checking this out. Don't forget to subscribe not only to Linus Tech Tips, but also the NCIXcom channel so you can see our follow-up video on this.
