Why WiFi connectivity in an electric kettle? Svensson Tuya SMART06B test

✨ The discussion evaluates the practicality and features of the Svensson Tuya SMART06B electric kettle, which incorporates WiFi connectivity and remote control via the Tuya mobile app. The kettle offers temperature selection and temperature maintenance functions, allowing users to keep liquids like tea or milk warm for extended periods. Concerns were raised about the absence of clear thermal protection, as the kettle can heat without water, potentially risking damage. Comparisons were made to a Xiaomi WiFi kettle, noted for poor performance and limited smart functionality. Repair experiences with electronic kettles highlighted common issues such as broken solder joints on relay leads, which can be resolved by resoldering. Traditional kettles with bimetallic switches were mentioned for their automatic cycling behavior during heating and dry operation. Overall, the WiFi feature is seen as a novelty with limited practical advantage, mainly useful for remote temperature maintenance rather than boiling water remotely.
