Why I actually wrote this
My dad's holiday lights display has grown into this whole neighborhood spectacle, and every year he manually flips a breaker switch at dusk like it's 2005. This year I decided to fix it for him and quickly realized most "smart outdoor plugs" on big marketplaces are either overpriced or sketchy off-brand stuff with zero reviews. I ended up comparing a couple of listings on eBay, one had almost no feedback, the other was this Feit Electric plug with a solid seller rating and actual photos of the waterproof housing. It showed up in a few days, paired with the app without drama, and now my dad just watches the lights turn on from his recliner. Small win, but it made his whole season easier.
