It's time for a new Maker Monday project! This time we (and by that, I mean, "I") try to come to terms with how to pronounce "TRÅDFRI". In case you don't know, TRÅDFRI is [IKEA's line of smart lights](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90353361/), and in this episode we set one up and hook it up to our Home Assistant.

One small thing, before you watch: we messed up a bit on the main camera's focus. But you'll be able to enjoy the episode regardless!
