Got bored while quarantined so I am finding silly things to keep me entertained.

So I installed a WiFi transmitter kit on my mailbox. Now I get an email and an SMS push notification anytime the mailbox door is opened for more than 2 seconds. :D

the kids on your block said for $5 a day they'll open your mailbox at least 3x a day each, the late night shift (9pm+) said they want $10 for 2xs a night.

Trump Bucks well spent I say

A little hard to be sure from that picture but it looks like your mailbox still has the stock single exhaust sticking up out the back.

Who adds WiFi to their projects before swapping out exhaust?

Cool project anyway. Nice job.

That's definitely cool, U.M. Neat way to spend some of the time at home.
