You know those "strip of LEDs on a gooseneck" plant lights? Even these, low-end as they are, have similar issues. They have buttons instead of physical switch

You know those "strip of LEDs on a gooseneck" plant lights? Even these, low-end as they are, have similar issues. They have buttons instead of physical switches. If the power goes out, I have to remember what sequence of button-presses gets me a twelve-hour timer. And you can't even set it to "always on" and control with a mechanical timer. Maddening.
- theshrike79 5y agoThis is why engineers invented the screwdriver and soldering iron :) It's not hard to just wire shit directly and use an external plug to control the light.
- WalterBright 5y ago> soldering iron I worked my way through college with a soldering iron. The wire to my headphones broke, and I thought "I'll just strip the wires and solder them back together!" The problem was, the wires were about as thick as a hair. My fat fingers just couldn't solder them. I could hardly see them. The headphones went into the garbage.
- onecommentman 5y agoYeah, they should engrave the button sequences into the back of cover of the controller. There are only 4 or so. Or the settings onto the buttons themselves, if each button is associated with one setting. That would be the fix for mine…
