Wouldn't trust any IoT device that connects via Wifi.

Don't forget the "S" in IoT stands for Security.

IoT devices focus on as many features as possible, for a as low as possible price. Security is always an after thought.

Maybe I'm dumb, but what could happen with my lights connected to a standalone wifi router? AFAIK, they don't have the ability to host a network on their own.
