I think you can do it with a RGB light, it can also be turned off so it'd work

ASUS X470-PRO • R7 1700 4GHz • Corsair H110i GT P/P • 2x MSI RX 480 8G • Corsair DP 2x8 @3466 • EVGA 750 G2 • Corsair 730T • Crucial MX500 250GB • WD 4TB

You need a supported "smart" switch for every light you want to control like that.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Just pickup any Alexa compatible wifi smart plug or switch or Zwave hub and plug or switch then set it up according to the manufacturer instructions. If you require a wall switch to be wired in, you may have to hire an electrician to wire it in for you.

 

Typically it is as easy as adding a skill to your echo or granting permission to your Amazon account to be able to control your device with your echo.
