Review: A neat gizmo, nicely made, useful - My Blink(1) mk3 is well-made and nicely finished. The lights are bright, and pleasantly diffused by the cover. I downloaded the Windows command-line program and the Windows UI program, and they worked well. The two internal LED's Independently set color, brightness, flashing and fading. I like the included USB cable. I would like to find better descriptions of the storable pattern and "serverTickle" features. Where? After a brief bit of searching, I was able to find the NodeJS API at Github (todbot/node-blink1). I was able to recompile it for electron (electronjs.org), updating the native-based API from NodeJS version 72 -> 73. This works wonderfully, and will add a sweet WOW! factor to my next project. I expect this little $30 gem will pay for itself, in short time.
Review: Fun. As geeky as you want it to be. - The ThingM blink(1) is fun and a little geeky. It plugs into a USB port and can be made to blink, display colors, display patterns, and so on via software. There is still a "roll-your-own" feel about the software in that I have spent the bulk of my time playing around on the Mac OS command line, however there is integration into IFTTT, so you do not need to be a total geek to enjoy this. There are samples of other things you can do with the blink(1), if you want to concentrate more on the "what" it can do than on the "how" to do it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works like a charm
*by H***. on October 30, 2016*

I bought this in hopes of having it light up when an email arrives in Outlook - two hours after opening the box I got my wish (and most of that time was spent googling). I used a combination of four pieces of free software as follows: 1. AutoIt: A freeware BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general scripting. 2. OutlookEX User Defined Functions (UDF): A user-contributed library that allows AutoIt scripts to communicate with MS Outlook. 3. OutlookEX UDF Example Script for New Mail Event (_OL_Example_NewMail_Event): An example script that uses OutlookEX UDF that activates when a new email arrives in Outlook. 4. Blink1Control v1.93: Blink(1)'s command line tool 'blink1-tool'. I know all of that looks complicated but I simply installed AutoIt and OutlookEX UDF (I have no idea how they work) then I simply added two lines to the _OL_Example_NewMail_Event script; one line runs blink1-tool to turn the LED on when the new mail arrives, and the other line runs blink1-tool to turn the LED off when you acknowledge the message. See the two 'Run' lines below: Func oOApp_NewMailEx($sOL_EntryId) Local $oOL_Item = $oOApp.Session.GetItemFromID($sOL_EntryId, Default) Run('"c:\Users\<user>\Downloads\Blink(1)\blink1-tool.exe" --rgb 255,153,0') MsgBox(64, "OutlookEX UDF Example Script", "New mail has arrived!" & @CRLF & @CRLF & _ "From: " & $oOL_Item.SenderName & @CRLF & _ "Subject: " & $oOL_Item.Subject) Run('"c:\Users\<user>\Downloads\Blink(1)\blink1-tool.exe" --off') Simple as that. Works like a charm. I'll be buying more of these, they're slick. H.C.E.
