Control Power Plugs with littleBits and IFTTT

In this project we use a simple IFTTT ( if this then that) program to control our power to the device we chose which was  a lamp.

In this project you use :

  • littleBits power module
  • littleBits cloud module
  • littleBits connector module
  • powertail switch
  • household lamp
  • jumpers

On the phone we used IFTTT and we created two applets, lights on and lights off.

Inside we made a simple program by setting the output value sent to the cloudbit module.

We then added IFTTT widgets to the screen of our phone so when the buttons were pressed the light would turn on or off.
