00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:09.040
You're probably wondering why I'm shooting this at my house. That's because the year is 2025 and I still

00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:14.960
don't have a smart door lock until today.

00:00:10.559 --> 00:00:16.480
This is it, folks. The Alfred DB2S

00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:20.560
key-BL. Why this one, you ask? Well, I could say

00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:24.320
it's because it unlocks five different ways. With a timer, with their mobile

00:00:22.480 --> 00:00:27.760
app, with a touch sensitive pin code, with an RFID chip, or even with a good

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:31.599
oldfashioned key. I could say it's because of its flexible connectivity.

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:36.239
gives you Bluetooth or with accessories. It can be Wi-Fi connected, Z-Wave or

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:41.440
Ziggby. Or I could say that it's because it looks stylish. Does anyone know what

00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:45.920
a sexy door lock would look like? The point is, it's not any of those things.

00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:50.559
It's because of this accessory from Y Charge. We actually first checked out

00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:54.800
their technology 7 years ago when we showed this wireless power beaming light

00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:59.680
fixture that managed to run even a moving train and featured detection for

00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:05.680
human skin. so that if you ever got in the way of its infrared beam, it would

00:01:02.559 --> 00:01:08.400
turn off so it doesn't, you know, cook

00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:12.479
you. Cool, right? Let's take a look. This is really exciting for me because

00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:16.960
as soon as I first saw this technology, I was 100% on board. Like, you could

00:01:14.720 --> 00:01:20.000
retrofit every table in a restaurant to have phone chargers on them because you

00:01:18.880 --> 00:01:23.759
could just have, you know, light fixtures that beam power to little

00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:28.320
receiver batteries or something like that. or you could have um electronic

00:01:26.320 --> 00:01:32.640
price tags all over your retail store that never need to have their batteries

00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:38.960
changed. It's so flipping cool. It's just that I think the price has been a

00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:43.200
major challenge for folks. What even is all this stuff? All right, we've got a

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:49.360
little base station for what seems to be the wireless power beaming unit. Okay,

00:01:46.720 --> 00:01:52.960
couple screws on here. Looks like it goes a little something like that. This

00:01:51.119 --> 00:01:57.119
will have to be within line of sight of your door. But what's cool about their

00:01:55.119 --> 00:02:01.040
technology is it sends such a focused beam that you don't have the inverse

00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:05.119
square power drop off that you get with other wireless power technologies like

00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:09.840
for example chi which is used for charging your phone.

00:02:08.399 --> 00:02:14.000
Not much else in here in terms of accessories. We've got a wall wart, one

00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:18.239
of the little modular ones. Clip on my North American standard. And then things

00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:23.200
get really interesting because the next thing in the package is, you guessed it,

00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:27.280
a battery. Why do I need a battery? I'm supposed to have wireless power. Any

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:31.520
device that uses Y charge for its wireless transmission and wireless

00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:35.360
receiving is still going to need either a battery or some kind of super

00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:40.000
capacitor in it so that in the event that the power is interrupted, it's

00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:44.000
still able to operate unlike the train that we showed in our demo all those

00:02:41.760 --> 00:02:49.040
years ago. So, this is a small rechargeable lithium-ion battery that

00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:51.519
should last functionally forever, which

00:02:49.040 --> 00:02:54.400
is to say not forever. But hey, at least this can be opened up with a couple of

00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:58.959
screws. So, maybe I could just huck a different one in there. This thing better not bulge, you guys. Lithium

00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:03.360
batteries don't like to be charged all the time. What else we got in here?

00:03:01.040 --> 00:03:07.440
There's this piece, which has another battery in it. This is the one for the

00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:11.680
lock. I don't know what the crap this is. See there? There's a little battery

00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:15.840
there and plugs into the Alfred and power receiver. What's this for? Does

00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:19.040
this just like Does this like charge your phone? Yeah. Now I want to know.

00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:22.000
I'm going to be a giant dork and I'm going to have a USBC thing on my phone.

00:03:20.720 --> 00:03:27.280
So, I was just going to put this like here. So, it's kind of pointed at my door, right?

00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:31.480
Stylish. It's a good thing I have a sense of humor about myself.

00:03:31.760 --> 00:03:38.319
I'm up. Oh, cool. They got what looks like a little uh quarter20 mount there.

00:03:36.799 --> 00:03:43.920
>> Yeah. So, you got lots of mounting options. There is another port on here.

00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:50.239
There's a type-C port. 12vt 2 amp power in. So, I guess that's just one of the

00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:53.760
options. Cool. So, that's there.

00:03:50.239 --> 00:03:55.680
The power. Okay. Now, what is it going

00:03:53.760 --> 00:03:58.640
to do? Do I have a setup guide that I'm missing? >> Yeah, you took out the paperwork.

00:03:57.920 --> 00:04:03.760
>> I did. Yeah. >> That doesn't seem like something I would do. Oh, yeah. There it is. Yeah. Yeah.

00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:08.239
Good. Quick start guide. Oo. Clear line of sight. 80° field of view. Wow. 80°

00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:12.480
field of view. That's pretty big. The transmitter will map the room for a few

00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:17.040
minutes. Then it will run a charging cycle sequentially powering each

00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:22.079
receiver that it sees for 1 hour. Configurable. Okay, so green means it is

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:25.680
looking for receivers. Well, I'm going to leave this here then

00:04:23.919 --> 00:04:31.120
while we work on our lock and we'll see if it starts charging at some point. You

00:04:27.520 --> 00:04:33.759
thought you missed blind day? Wrong. Ah,

00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:38.720
we found some more cuts to make. Save $20 on a mystery screwdriver and get one

00:04:36.320 --> 00:04:43.600
of five exclusive Lime Day colorways. Save $15 on our iconic double wall

00:04:41.520 --> 00:04:47.440
vacuuminssulated water bottles. Buy a precision bit set and screwdriver bundle

00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:51.759
and we'll throw in a free Jerryri everything knife. Killer deals, right?

00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:56.880
And best of all, you get free shipping on every order over $175

00:04:54.479 --> 00:05:01.840
if you're on the US site and every order over $250 Canadian if you're shopping

00:04:59.440 --> 00:05:08.720
from anywhere else. So hurry, visit lmd.gg. GG/Lime. The clock's ticking.

00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:10.479
Let's modify my Alfred Smart Lock. Here

00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:15.120
we go. Man, this thing's freaking heavy. Can you feel it in your testicles yet?

00:05:12.320 --> 00:05:23.680
>> Oh, that's what that is. >> How hard could this be? Right. Mhm.

00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:25.840
Yeah. Oh, good. Okay. This is a door

00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:31.919
open or closed sensor. I don't actually need this cuz I have one already. Key.

00:05:27.919 --> 00:05:34.479
Ooh, little RFID tag for your keychain.

00:05:31.919 --> 00:05:38.400
I want to get one in my finger so I can be like, I'm home. Man, I'm so stoked on

00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:44.400
this. Being able to let people in remotely to my house and stuff like that. You can give them like a onetime

00:05:41.440 --> 00:05:48.880
use code. It's great for like uh Airbnbs or deliveries to apartments or just all

00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:54.960
kinds of cool stuff. Here's a big fat battery. Ha, don't need you. Let's

00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:57.759
follow the modification instructions.

00:05:54.960 --> 00:06:01.919
New Alfred face plate. Unscrew the face plate.

00:06:00.080 --> 00:06:06.479
Is this How's this come? Oh yeah, there you go. There you go. So, the face is

00:06:03.440 --> 00:06:09.199
off. Use the fabric pull tab to remove

00:06:06.479 --> 00:06:13.199
the old battery module and set it aside. How the freaky batteries does this thing

00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:17.120
come with? What's hilarious about Y charge partnering with these guys on

00:06:14.960 --> 00:06:20.240
this lock is that out of like all the smart locks, this is one of the ones

00:06:18.479 --> 00:06:24.160
that needs the wireless charging least. Like I think this thing lasts for like a

00:06:21.840 --> 00:06:28.160
year on that battery. But that's my whole thing with like batterypowered

00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:31.759
smart devices is as soon as you have one of them on like every one of your

00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:36.080
stupid, you know, locks and every one of your stupid, you know, window sensors.

00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:39.199
You're replacing one of these things like a couple times a week. And a lot of

00:06:37.840 --> 00:06:47.120
them come with just like random proprietary batteries. It's just it's not convenient. I want everything to be

00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:48.720
hardwired or at the very least airwired.

00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:52.800
This is still not charging this thing, so I don't know how that works. Plug the

00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:57.759
cable from the new face plate into the new battery module. So, this bigger

00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:02.720
battery was supposed to be the one that was in there. And this that was in there

00:07:00.479 --> 00:07:06.840
I was supposed to put in. I see. All right. Time to plug this in there.

00:07:07.599 --> 00:07:16.120
This goes in a little something like that. Yeah. That insert and tighten the

00:07:12.080 --> 00:07:16.120
screw from step one to complete.

00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:22.880
That just does not fit quite as nicely as the OEM cover. It looks all right. I

00:07:21.840 --> 00:07:30.400
don't think it's the kind of thing you'd ever notice unless you knew what you're looking for. All right, I have upgraded

00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:31.919
the Alfred with wireless power. I don't

00:07:30.400 --> 00:07:39.080
know if I'm convinced that's working. Yeah, it's still green. It hasn't detected this. I assume removing the old

00:07:35.280 --> 00:07:39.080
thing is part of the dillio.

00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:46.160
Oh, lordy. This one shifted, too. Oh, wow. I never noticed that before. That's

00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:50.800
the thing. Never look that close at your house because as soon as you do it just

00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:52.720
looks like crap. All right.

00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:56.000
Ar she blows. I probably don't really need instructions, right? Like it

00:07:54.400 --> 00:08:03.440
probably just goes in pretty much the way the old one came out, right? Okay.

00:07:59.919 --> 00:08:06.160
That is not the size of the hole at all.

00:08:03.440 --> 00:08:12.319
Or hear me out. Yeah. Look at that.

00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:17.360
Technology. Okay. I was supposed to do this first.

00:08:14.400 --> 00:08:21.039
Wait, what? How the heck am I supposed to get this

00:08:18.960 --> 00:08:26.560
cable around it? This thing really assumes I have a lot more room in this

00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:29.280
hole in my door. Oh boy. Wait, is that

00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:33.519
as far as it goes? That what? You got to be kidding me.

00:08:31.919 --> 00:08:39.120
Here. No, no, no, no, no, no. There's two depths. There's two depths. How is

00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:42.800
this so hard to move? There we go.

00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:47.200
Nice. Okay, there we go. Wow.

00:08:42.800 --> 00:08:50.000
>> Oh yeah. Oh, buddy. Buddy, you have to

00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:55.480
turn that. Oh, yeah. That's Well, it's more about girth than length anyway. How

00:08:51.760 --> 00:08:55.480
are we going to hold this on?

00:08:55.600 --> 00:09:04.160
Nice. Yes.

00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:06.320
Yes. Success. Yes.

00:09:04.160 --> 00:09:09.440
Oh, yeah. Bud, I just got the two screws. Who needs all these screws?

00:09:08.160 --> 00:09:12.640
They're ridiculous. So, this would keep it from twisting for sure, but I don't

00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:16.640
know if I care about that. The gasket seems good enough. I don't want to put any holes in my door. These two I could

00:09:15.040 --> 00:09:20.080
put in because those are where the old one would go if I ever wanted to swap

00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:23.839
this out. All right. You happy, Mark? You happy, Mark? Are you satisfied?

00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:29.920
>> Very. >> Are you not entertained? >> Oh, this is great. I'm so Oh, this is

00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:34.880
perfect. >> Wicked smart.

00:09:32.959 --> 00:09:40.240
You can fit so much security in there and convenience. Simplicity. Why is the

00:09:37.920 --> 00:09:43.640
S used so much?

00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:52.640
Now for the third time I put it in the modified battery. I amuse myself. I got

00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:56.880
to amuse somebody. So in here we got breaking entry hall 24vt power. I mean

00:09:55.760 --> 00:10:01.360
that would have worked. I could have just run power to it. I just wish I knew

00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:04.959
how much it cost. Wire charge literally did wouldn't even tell us how much it

00:10:02.959 --> 00:10:08.160
cost. We got like a range. And I think even that we got from the verge. Hey,

00:10:07.040 --> 00:10:13.200
look at that. They put a convenient little red mark on there for you.

00:10:11.680 --> 00:10:17.680
Yes. Now's the time. I'm putting in the last

00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:21.600
screw. Head down to the comments. Tell me all the stuff I did wrong. It's too

00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:26.640
late for me to fix it. Well, it doesn't move. So, that's good. Do I need to

00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:29.440
power it on? If only you told me sooner about our

00:10:28.640 --> 00:10:34.240
sponsor. >> Door is not locked. >> Shut up. Thanks to Corsair for

00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:38.720
sponsoring this video. Their Frame 5000D midtower case takes the fan favorite

00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:41.839
4000D and adds a few features that you didn't even know you need, but you're

00:10:40.160 --> 00:10:46.880
going to love to have. It now supports up to 450 mm long GPUs, so your 50

00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:52.640
series cards are all good to go. You can throw an even larger 420 mm radiators,

00:10:50.160 --> 00:10:57.360
and their allnew infrar mounting system lets you easily go wild with your fan

00:10:54.880 --> 00:11:03.440
configuration. Speaking of fans, it even comes with four0 mm big boys. no matter

00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:07.440
if you get the ARGB or the regular version. Oh, and of course, it's

00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:10.640
available in both black and white. Learn more by using our link in the video

00:11:09.040 --> 00:11:15.839
description. Well, well, there's your problem right there. There's wood. I'll

00:11:13.839 --> 00:11:18.800
need my chisel after all. I found this hatchet.

00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:23.360
>> This is safe. >> I couldn't find a hammer. >> Yeah. Yeah, it's rusty, too.

00:11:22.079 --> 00:11:27.600
>> Yeah, it's pretty It's pretty dull. I think that probably like it won't cut

00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:30.320
anything. I know it's uncomfortable. It really is like >> Oh, no.

00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:39.160
>> Oh, no. I got rust on you. >> Workers comp. >> Get the old one, two, you know. One,

00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:39.160
two. She's clear.

00:11:42.800 --> 00:11:53.040
Hey, it's me, Alfredo. Okay, but I have a

00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:54.399
problem. He knows all the way. So, I

00:11:53.040 --> 00:11:57.680
need to fix that. First, I want to see if this thing charges. Oh, hey. Hey,

00:11:56.240 --> 00:12:02.240
it's blue. It's blue. >> Can you get in the way? Yeah, I sure can.

00:12:00.800 --> 00:12:07.440
Boom. >> All right, I bent the thing a bit, so it

00:12:04.800 --> 00:12:13.839
should close. Nice. Boom. Z Waves. I'm going to use

00:12:11.040 --> 00:12:19.200
the app anyway for now. Alfred home. Oh goodness. 3.2 stars. That's always a

00:12:16.800 --> 00:12:23.360
good sign. Place palm over keypad to activate lock. Please keep your phone

00:12:20.880 --> 00:12:29.040
Bluetooth on. Hey,

00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:32.240
select Bluetooth lock. Yes. into the

00:12:29.040 --> 00:12:34.160
master code of the lock to verify your

00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:37.440
identity. I guess it's probably in the packaging for the lock. Oh, look at

00:12:35.760 --> 00:12:42.079
that. There's templates for drilling and everything. Wow, we sure skipped all of

00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:45.880
that. By default, it's just 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

00:12:42.560 --> 00:12:45.880
>> master code.

00:12:46.079 --> 00:12:52.639
>> Verification failed. This used to be an LTT video and Elijah was working on it.

00:12:50.800 --> 00:12:58.959
He must have changed the master access code. Name the lock. F Elijah. No. No,

00:12:57.360 --> 00:13:03.680
I'll answer something else. Tap to unlock.

00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:08.880
Hey, let's go. You can set pin code keys, access cards, Bluetooth

00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:14.079
invitations, whatever these are. Door lock was shared to zero member lock mode

00:13:11.680 --> 00:13:18.079
away mode. I'm okay. What's that? Enabling this feature restricts all user

00:13:16.160 --> 00:13:21.519
pin codes except the master pino key in appex. Okay, cool. Okay, it's got all

00:13:19.839 --> 00:13:26.880
the modes and everything. Onetouch unlock by simply touching the keypad. No

00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:31.440
pin codes required. Hey, auto relock. I want that privacy mode. Bluetooth energy

00:13:29.040 --> 00:13:34.560
saving. Yeah, I don't care. I don't care.

00:13:32.959 --> 00:13:39.360
Now, I want to see if it's charging. So, I'm going to step out of the way.

00:13:37.040 --> 00:13:43.839
And theoretically, it's going to charge. What's that? 63% battery right now. Hey.

00:13:42.079 --> 00:13:47.440
Hey, it's doing it. It's doing it. So, it's flashing.

00:13:45.680 --> 00:13:50.800
It's blue. How do I tell if it's charging, though? I guess it kind of

00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:54.959
makes sense that something like this normally wouldn't really need an active

00:13:52.800 --> 00:13:58.000
charging indicator. like you would, you know, plug it in and it would, you know,

00:13:56.560 --> 00:14:03.680
charge. And how much power does this thing output? We've got the R1HP, which

00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:05.440
is rated for 300 m, meaning that you're

00:14:03.680 --> 00:14:10.320
not going to be powering devices directly off of it. It's really intended

00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:14.800
for like smart home IoT applications like this where it juices up a battery

00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:18.639
over time and then it gets used intermittently. It's really cool as

00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:22.880
heck. I just not sure if they're going to be able to accelerate their adoption

00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:25.839
if it remains very expensive like it is. Oh my goodness, it's warm. Oh, not that

00:14:24.560 --> 00:14:29.279
warm actually. Okay, never mind. It's good. Anyway, I'm super excited to try

00:14:27.760 --> 00:14:33.600
this out. I'll update you guys on WAN Show if I have any thoughts about it in the longer term. It's time for dinner.

00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:36.600
