Tapo’s palm-scanning door lock promises a full year of battery life
Tapo’s lock has a removable, rechargeable 10,000mAh battery that’s supposed to last a full year on a charge, which should make upkeep fairly low-effort. There’s also support for a physical key backup, according to the press release, though Tapo didn’t detail where that sits on the unit. It also works with Alexa, SmartThings, and Google Home.
