👤 Author Insight – Andrew M I built this hub after realising how much light was wasted in my own home.

Once I switched to smart lighting and proper scheduling, I cut costs without losing comfort. Smart lighting isn’t just about ambience — it’s about control, safety, and savings that add up every single month.
