It gets to ground through the metal chassis of the washing machine which is earned through the supply. I can only assume this is similar to the earth offered by a human finger. Without tne strap to earth it didn’t work. With it it did.
@@MAIDENSHOUSE yes, but what if you connected to the body of the machine instead of the internal metal part. I believe the internal metal part is connected to the ground by the machine, the metal outer body isn't . Your thoughts?
Who the hell needs a button for a dryer? Do you have to run it multiple times to get your clothes dry or something? Clean your fuckin vent exhaust instead.

Can you set this device to click every 10 seconds?
Yes
Yes through Alexa. There will probably be a way to do this in the dedicated app.

Switchbot, the bendable steel piece and 3M sticker
It is copper adhesive strip, but anything electrical conducting should work.
Ciao Duncan, can you explain how you did it?
