I was in an auto parts store yesterday and saw that you can buy a can of that stuff to fix your AC and the damn can has Bluetooth capabilities. So no, we’re still not done putting Bluetooth where it doesn’t need to be.
That sounds cool, I don't have a smart home setup, but Bluetooth sounds kinda nice to me for changing the temperature on the thermostat in the house, car not so much. Now I do know many people who use Bluetooth to cast their phone calls to their hands free devices in cars, as well as to hook up those diagnostic tools and have the error codes go to your phone instead of buying a product that costs hundreds of dollars to have a screen you would only use for that one purpose.
Oh no, this was strictly for the can to refill your car’s air conditioner liquid…the name is drawing a blank for me what it’s called, exactly.
I’ve seen some of these cans have a digital display on them which I guess this Bluetooth is supposed to replace. But it’s still so weird to me especially because these cans are generally disposable.
Freon, or it used to be
That’s it, thank you!
