    Abstract: In one aspect, an example method includes drawing a current through a doorbell circuit. While drawing the current through the doorbell circuit, the example method includes determining, by the doorbell device, a maximum doorbell circuit current that will not activate a doorbell chime. Based on determining the maximum doorbell circuit, the example method includes configuring a doorbell device to draw the determined maximum doorbell circuit current through the doorbell circuit. Determining the maximum doorbell circuit current that will not activate the doorbell chime further includes: (i) determining whether the current being drawn through the doorbell circuit has activated the doorbell chime, (ii) if the current being drawn through the doorbell circuit has activated the doorbell chime, decrementing the current drawn through the doorbell circuit, and (iii) if the current being drawn through the doorbell circuit has not activated the doorbell chime, incrementing the current drawn through the doorbell circuit.

    Abstract: A streaming media device includes a printed circuit board hosting components configured to access internet data. An audio/visual connector is linked to the printed circuit board, wherein the audio/visual connector is adapted for connection to an audio/visual device, wherein the audio/visual connector is adapted to operate with a first audio/visual interface having sufficient power to fully operate the printed circuit board and a second audio/visual interface having insufficient power to fully operate the printed circuit board. A power connector is linked to the printed circuit board, wherein the power connector selectively receives power based on the audio/visual connector utilizing one of the first audio/visual interface and the second audio/visual interface.

    Abstract: A method and system to facilitate adding a new IoT device to an IoT ecosystem that includes an existing IoT device, where a mobile device is configured to control the IoT ecosystem. In an example, the new device detects a wireless broadcast from the existing device that provides identification information of the mobile device. In response, the new device then uses the provided identification information of the mobile device as a basis to scan for and discover wireless presence of the mobile device. And responsive to the discovering wireless presence of the mobile device based on the mobile-phone identification information provided by the existing device, the new device then transmits to the mobile device, via the existing device as a wireless proxy, new-device information about the new device—which enables the mobile device to prompt for and obtain user approval to add the new device to the IoT ecosystem.
