That was an easy one so let's try today's puzzle!
Three switches outside a windowless room are connected to three light bulbs inside the room.
How can you determine which switch is connected to which bulb if you are only allowed to enter the room once?

Hhhmmmmm, if they're LED bulbs working this out will likely take longer.
RE: Puzzle a Day! - Veggie - 09-10-2021
For this question, we'll assume they're old style bulbs.

I'm sure my plan would work eventually just would take longer if LEDs.

I know what the "correct" answer is as I've come across this one before. However, there's nothing in the rules to say I can't just leave the door open while merrily flicking switches as I please!
I suppose that answer isn't one to warm the cockles of my heart though.

No, it just meant you could insert the answer at the end of that sentence.
RE: Puzzle a Day! - JJB - 09-10-2021
I expect it can be done by testing the heat of a lit bulb

And, before opening the door, update the switches so they can be turned on and off from your phone like you can now.
