They are so much fun. On a related note I've broken my wrist twice since discovering that.

You can get similar power consumption.

As for gpio... Add a Pico as a USB pass-through for a few bucks.

This article was trending at the time. On hackernews I think.

I really did get the $40 price for an m600 like he mentioned in it.

Seriously. I was thinking about one for a home theater pc a bit ago. Bought a used thinkcentre off ebay for $40 instead. Much better performance and price.

As I learned in engineering school...

"Any idiot can build a bridge which doesn't fall down. It takes an engineer to build a bridge which bearly doesn't fall down"

I've had fantastic success spraying around my home with insecticides. Primarily treated for ticks but great on mosquitos too.

Primarily with bifenthrin. Not affiliated with that supplier.

For flying insects you need to spray on the leaves of nearby trees so you really do need a mist blower. Or have a local company do it.
