Smart Home Deals and Half-Off Tools at the Home Depot

"Apparently, it's always Friday at the Home Depot. Or at least, the Home Depot Black Friday deals have slipped all customary bounds of the calendar: Online deals started November 5 and will go all the way to December 3. This includes some very steep discounts on flagship tool brands like Milwaukee, Ryobi, and DeWalt toolsby which I mean half-off and buy-one-get-one steep. Seemingly half the store is on sale."

"The Nest is pretty on the eyes and has no trouble with disconnections or irregularities in the temperature readout, which are surprisingly common among smart home thermostats. It also offers a bunch of fun features, including a readout that changes depending on your proximity to the device. Even better, the Nest thermostat comes with an external temperature sensor that lets you prioritize the readings in a specific room (or part of a room)."

"The larger screen size is also a noticeable upgrade from previous generations, she noted. The Nest Cam Outdoor 2K requires a little installation, sure: You'll need to screw in the mount and run a cable. But the cam offers 2K video quality and two-way audio, and doesn't waste your time with a string of ambiguous notifications like a lot of outdoor cameras: It can accurately detect people, animals, and vehicles."

Online Black Friday deals at Home Depot run November 5 through December 3 and include deep discounts, including half-off and buy-one-get-one offers across many departments. Flagship power-tool brands such as Milwaukee, Ryobi, and DeWalt receive steep price cuts. Smart-home devices including Google Nest thermostats and Nest Cam Outdoor 2K are discounted alongside Echo and Eufy products. The Nest Learning Thermostat features a larger screen, proximity-based readout, and an external temperature sensor that lets users prioritize readings for a specific room to control comfort. The Nest Cam Outdoor 2K delivers 2K video, two-way audio, and accurate detection of people, animals, and vehicles, though installation requires mounting and wiring.
