Meross Matter combatible smart plug: ease of use as a Matter device, and more features in Meross app

Update on my 7 1/4 inch gauge layout. I think the bulk of the work is done for this year already, I just need to finish a few minor details. Otherwise it should only be fun for the rest of the summer.

This video is long overdue as I received this bulb for a review a few months ago. But it gets a bit busy during summer. This is a 6W 600lm E27 light bulb which can be controlled via iTead's eWeLink mobile application. The lamp can reproduce RGB colors, cool, natural and warm white light. I think the RGB lights are very weak, but I can recommend it as a white light bulb.
