Setup and review of SwitchBot Bot, Hub mini, and hygrometer with Alexa smart home

You can use SwitchBot (affiliate link https://amzn.to/3bzV9A3) to automate control of switches around your house turning your dumb switches into smart switches. SwitchBot is a great solution for people renting or have older houses without neutral wires that want to add smart switches to their house or apartment.

This review will unbox the SwitchBot Bot (switch), SwitchBot Hub mini, and Switchbot Meter (Thermometer and Hygrometer). The hygrometer is setup, reviewed and compared for accuracy against the Ecobee temperature sensor and Accurite hygrometer. The SwitchBot hub mini is added to my wifi network and linked to my Samsung TV for remote control with Alexa to turn the TV off. Lastly, I setup the SwitchBot switch to control the decora style switch in my kitchen to turn the lights on and off.
