About Dongle Jungle

Hello, I'm Matt, the founder of Dongle Jungle. Originally from Europe, I've called the US West Coast home since 2015—that's also when my passion for home automation truly began.

It all started with a single Hue light bulb and the Tasker app on my Android phone. From there, I set up my first Raspberry Pi running Node-RED and even wrote my own integrations for a variety of light bulbs and sensors collected from different manufacturers. As managing custom integrations became too challenging, I discovered Home Assistant in 2018. Since then, I've built my ever-extending smart home on Home Assistant, in rental properties and rural homes, and I've continue to be excited by the evolution of this powerful platform.

At Dongle Jungle, we pride ourselves on cutting through the chaos of the smart home ecosystem. We curate a selection of devices that not only work seamlessly with Home Assistant but also enhance one another. By partnering with top manufacturers and logistics professionals, we're able to offer competitive prices, fast shipping from our US base, and the responsive support you need to build or expand your smart home.

Have questions about our products or how they work? Never tinkered with Home Assistant but want to leave Alexa and Google behind? Overwhelmed by the amount of choices to make just to get started? Get in touch for a free consultation or just a fun chat about what's possible and how to achieve your goals of comfort, privacy and security.

We're here to tame the wild world of smart technology and turn it into a connected oasis!
