I think shutters (preferably white) would probably help on south and west facing windows. I don’t really see them used much down here; the ones I do see are fake. Highly reflective silver tint (applied on the outside) helps more than dark tint. Window awnings would also help. Large trees are the long-term solution :)

A lot of the LED bulbs have very cheap power supplies/control circuits. I’ve had the best luck with the filament-style LEDs. I remember seeing a video a while back stating filament-style LEDs tend to have better cooling because the driver circuit is surrounded by the metal screw material and the LEDs are separated from the driver PCB. I also haven’t had a Phillips Hue bulb die on me yet, but they are quite expensive.

Have a few Rigid tools (cordless drill, impact driver, router, contractor table saw, orbital sander). Originally started buying Rigid for their “lifetime warranties,” but after using their registration process, it appears they’re doing everything they can to make people give up, so I don’t buy this brand any more. The contractor table saw is great, regardless.

I now buy Dewalt cordless tools. Good quality, but battery prices are ridiculous.

For tools I don’t need to use very often, I buy from Harbor Freight. Some tools are barely usable, some of their hand tools are superior to other store brands from other stores.
