Launched on June 3, 2025, this weird-&-wonderful gadget turns any regular E26 socket into a smart security station—no extra wiring, batteries, or solar panels.
Wyze started in 2017, born from a team of ex-Amazon folks in Seattle.
Their goal?
Make smart home tech affordable and usable. They started with the tiny WyzeCam in 2017, and now they’ve evolved into lighting and security combined in one device .
