Happy 4th of July from all of us at Apollo Automation! :fireworks:

To celebrate, we’re giving away a BTN-1 Macro Deck to one randomly drawn commenter.

The BTN-1 is our programmable macro deck for controlling your smart home. If you haven’t seen it in action, here’s a quick video on setting it up and using it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WbFfIAibwg

How to enter: just drop a comment below. Tell us what you’d automate with it if you want, but that’s optional.

We also put together a little fireworks whack game to celebrate. Give it a whack here: https://apolloautomation.github.io/july4-game/

The giveaway closes Sunday, July 5 at 11:59pm EST. We’ll draw a random winner and announce it during our livestream on Monday, July 6 at 7pm CST on Discord and YouTube. Come hang out:

Thanks for being part of the community, and have a great 4th!

Would love this for my partner or kids. Quick lighting or music shortcuts!

This would be great for automating my office lighting! I’ve got overhead lights and a desk lamp that are all dimmable and colorable, but currently only a single wall rocker to automate them.

Awesome.

I am dreaming of creating some button macros to flash lights and announce on speakers and flash text over m-1:

‘Do your homework’

‘Get off the iPad’

‘Time to wake up’

Kinda boring, but I would use mine for light switches, each one could control a different wall.

I can haz? I would use it to click all the things! So button. Much tappity-tap. Very fidget.

Another giveaway! I’d definitely use the BTN-1 in my home office to toggle softbox lights, wake-on-lan my PC, control my ceiling fan, and toggle OBS scenes!

Good luck to all. :slight_smile:

That would be nice to trigger different scenes in my home office so I don’t have to open my Home Assistant dashboard or pull out my phone every time!

I’d use it to turn on my air conditioner, ceiling fan, and desk lamp. Thanks!

I’d love to try one of those!

No worries! Best of luck to all the others, then!

I would love a BTN-1 just for office automations, like turning on the “ON AIR” lamp when I’m in a meeting or playing some goofy RTTTL chimes just for the heck of it.
