If you want to give mom something that helps lighten the load, the SwitchBot Bot Rechargeable makes for a great, inexpensive gift. And now through May 10th, you can buy it for around $26.99 ($7 off) from Amazon and SwitchBot (with code FORHER20) as a part of its ongoing Mother’s Day sale, which drops the gadget to its best price to date. The original, battery-powered SwitchBot Bot is also on sale at Amazon for $22.99 ($7 off) in black or white, if you’re looking to spend less. [Product: SwitchBot Bot Rechargeable | https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GQPWD5BT/?tag=theverge02-20, https://go.skimresources.com/?id=1025X1701640&xs=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.switch-bot.com%2Fproducts%2Fswitchbot-bot-rechargeable] SwitchBot’s tiny helper is easy to set up, and once attached to a button or rocker switch, it uses a small arm to press buttons on your behalf — no rewiring necessary. You can control it from your phone or set it on a schedule, which makes it a little easier to stay on top of everything during a busy day. You can, for example, use it to turn on your coffee maker or PC while getting ready, or pause the washing machine mid-cycle without getting up and interrupting what you’re doing. The USB-C gadget also doesn’t require disposable batteries like the first-gen model, and can last up to six months on a single charge with light use. Additionally, if you buy the SwitchBot Hub Mini at Amazon for $28.99 ($11 off), you can also control everything with your voice using Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri. It’s also compatible with Matter, as well, though you’ll need the $59.99 SwitchBot Hub Mini Matter or SwitchBot Hub 2 for that.
