 Alexa? What should I go for - Crankcase
It's a bit feeble, but mine controls some things that don't have switches. You just turn them on at the mains point. The mains sockets are tucked away behind the tv and there are a gazillion wires. Very hard to get to, so Alexa solves that.

I suppose there might be a similar use case for people who can't physically get down to sockets so easily, or perhaps even walk to the light switch across the room.
