Yes. You could technically hide the unit (not sensor) and play scary sounds from it too during Halloween.

Will look into that. The name was based on something 1) easy to say in most languages 2) I could get the domain for and is short and 3) wasn’t trademarked.

Most of my customers are users who bought the first one or have seen it at a friends home. When you use your phone you are announcing that you’re going to do something embarrassing. Loodio always plays no matter the intention of the visit.

It has a large button on top of the unit with lit up text that says ”Stop Music” which pauses music. The other buttons are Volume Up, Volume Down and Next Song.

A lot people place Alexas or Pods in the bathroom (which has microphones). Connecting Loodio to WiFi is optional.

Right. The problem is that you are announcing you’re about to do something embarrassing. Loodio always plays no matter intention and is easily paused with one button click.

Most work was getting the unit power efficient, analog design correct and constructed in a way that’s easily manufactured. It uses microsamps while inactive and runs on Arduino still. We probably need to rewrite it with esp-idf eventually

Doesn’t mention how much smoking is worse.

I _think_ that as long as I’m working out, I’m in better health than an _inactive_ non smoker. I bicycle everyday, a few gym sessions a week and smoke half a pack every weekend or so.

You’re right. I find you very inspiring Michael. Your writing has given me a lot of new ideas on a crossroad I’ve been stuck at recently.
