*But wait!* Make sure you synchronize your routines.

Don't forget to bookend automations with the opposite action. In other words, what gets told to turn on, must also know when to turn off. What goes up, must come down. You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out. You put your right foot in...and you shake it all about.

*Chef’s note* If you’re a fan of the TV show ‘The Office,’ you can use a Wyze Plug to trigger an action for your coffee maker to turn on. Hence, Cafe Disco.
