Prime Day brings a lot of deals, and it can be tough to know what’s actually worth getting. We decided to put together a list of the items we’re buying this year. These are things we picked out for our smart home setup or for some projects we want to work on. If you’re shopping too or just curious about what’s in our carts, keep reading to see what made our list.
Kasa Outdoor Smart Plug
The Kasa Outdoor Smart Plug is one of the items we picked up during Prime Day deals. It has two sockets and works with Wi-Fi, so you do not need a hub. It is also IP64 rated, which means it can handle rain and dust outside. You can control it with Alexa, Google Home, and IFTTT, which gives you a lot of options for automation. Since it is ETL certified, it meets safety standards. We wanted to add this to our smart home setup to control outdoor lights and other devices without going outside. The black color helps it blend in with most outdoor areas.
Kasa Smart Light Bulbs
The Kasa Smart Light Bulbs, Full Color Changing Dimmable Smart WiFi Bulbs, are one of the items we found useful during Prime Day sales. These bulbs can change colors and dim to fit different moods or times of day. They work with Alexa and Google Home, so you can control them with your voice if you have one of those smart speakers. Each bulb is 9 watts and puts out up to 800 lumens, which is about as bright as a regular light bulb. They connect to your WiFi at 2.4GHz, and you do not need a hub to make them work. The pack comes with four bulbs, which makes it easy to set up a few rooms at once. This set is a good fit for anyone looking to add smart lights to their home or start a small project using smart devices.
Aqara Smart Light Switch
The Aqara Smart Light Switch (with Neutral, Single Rocker) is one of the items we are picking up during Prime Day deals to use in our smart home. This switch works with a neutral wire, which is common in newer homes. It connects with popular smart home systems, so you can control your lights through an app or voice assistant. The single rocker design means it can replace most standard switches. People use this type of switch if they want to make regular lights smart without changing the bulbs. If you are planning to work on some smart home projects or just want to control your lights without getting up, this is one of the switches that makes it simple. Prime Day is a good time for this kind of purchase because the price is lower than usual.
Bamboo PLA Matte Refill Filament
The 3DTOOLS Bamboo1.75MM PLA Matte Refill Filament in Bone White comes as a one-kilogram refill without a spool. It works with Bambu Lab A1, X1, and P1 printers that use AMS. The filament has high toughness, which means it does not break or snap easily. It is also made for high-speed printing and is easy to work with. The color is a matte bone white, which can look clean and simple for different projects. It is labeled as eco friendly and has RFID for better tracking with the printer. For Prime Day, this refill is a choice for anyone looking to stock up on supplies for smart home projects or to just have extra filament on hand for 3D printing.
Double Sided Build Plate
The Double Sided PEO PET Build Plate for Bambu Lab 3D printers is on our list for Prime Day deals this year. It fits several Bambu printer models like the X1C, X1, X1E, P1P, P1S, and A1. The plate measures 257x257mm and has two different sides, one with a smooth diamond PEO finish and the other with a carbon fiber texture. Both sides are made from PET spring steel, which makes it pretty sturdy. We are picking this up because it should help with different types of 3D prints and make it easier to take prints off the bed. This is one of those tools that can be useful for smart home projects or any hobby work that needs 3D printing.
Enbrighten Zigbee Dimmer
The Enbrighten Zigbee Dimmer is one of those smart switches that works with Alexa and Google Assistant. It can connect right to Echo Studio, Echo Show 10, and both first and second generation Echo Plus devices. This switch has QuickFit and SimpleWire features, which make it easy to set up in most homes. You can pick between white or light almond to match your wall plates. Since it is part of the Prime Day deals, it’s a choice for anyone looking to add smart lighting to their home or finish a project. The switch lets you dim lights with your voice or through an app, making it simple to control lights without getting up. If you want something that fits with a smart home and is easy to use, this is one to think about.
Aqara Vibration Sensor
The Aqara Vibration Sensor is a small device made for smart home use. It can pick up on movements, shakes, and tilts. Many people use it to watch over doors, windows, or even drawers. If you have a smart home setup, this sensor works with other Aqara devices and can send you alerts if it senses something moving. On Prime Day, it is one of the items we are looking at because the price is lower than usual, making it a good time to add a few to a home setup or to try out for some new project ideas. It is simple to set up and runs on a battery, so you do not need to worry about wires. This is why it made our list of deals to grab.
Roku Streaming Stick 2025
The Roku Streaming Stick 2025 is one of the items we picked up during Prime Day. It is a small device that plugs into your TV and lets you watch different streaming apps. This version has HD quality and comes with a voice remote, which makes it easier to search for shows or movies without having to type. You can also watch free and live TV channels with it, which adds more options if you do not want to pay for extra services. We thought it would be a good way to make our TV a bit smarter and give us more ways to watch what we like. It was a simple choice for our list of Prime Day deals.
