| Use in-wall switch as remote without switching Posted: 25 Nov 2019 06:33 PM PST I'm wondering if it's possible to use an in-wall switch such as the GE 45857GE without the paddle directly controlling the relay/dimmer within the switch. Instead, I want to handle that event in my controller before possibly sending an event to the switch to activate the relay/dimmer. Is this possible or do the switches always respond directly to activating the paddle? [link] [comments] | ||
| Smartthings automation notification through Alexa Posted: 25 Nov 2019 06:38 PM PST I bought a SmartThings plug for the washer. I setup an automation where when it goes above a certain watt it notifies me on my phone "washer machine started" and when it drops below a certain watt it notifies me that "washer machine is done". So far it's working great but I can't figure a way to have Alexa tell me those notification sayings as well. Figured it would be possible but can't find a way. [link] [comments] | ||
| Need help with under kitchen cabinet cabinet lighting. Posted: 25 Nov 2019 02:03 PM PST I'm stuck right now with paralysis by analysis. I've seen so many options and right now I just don't know what to choose. I have the Hubitat as my smart hub, and I'm looking for LED strips that I can control with my voice via Google Home and my Hubitat dashboard. I have a set of cabinets that runs ~12 feet, and I'd like to do the top and bottom, so 24 ft total. Then I have a second set of cabinets on the other side of my range, so I'll need two controllers. I have this controller from Sylvania/Osram/Lightify (so many names). The controller works perfect, I can change the colors and brightness with my voice. My issue is the cost of the expansion kit. $15 for 4 feet of lights is ridiculous. I know mixing LED strips can have odd results with compatibility, so if I have to replace the 6' that came with the starter kit with another strip, fine. I was eyeing up this set of LEDs. The only problem is the wires are in a different order, so I'd have to solder my own connectors. Not a huge deal, but the hesitation is there. What do I do? I'm fine repurposing the Sylvania lights elsewhere and getting a new controller if that makes it easier. Is there an easier option of getting a whole controller with longer lights that I can cut/solder? What strips and controllers have you all used? [link] [comments] | ||
| Robot vacuum buying help: Neato D7 Posted: 26 Nov 2019 12:01 AM PST Hey! With all the pre-black-fridays sales going on, I'm quite eager to jump onto the robot vacuum boat. After a lot of reviews I'm kinda set on the Neato D7, which I would be able to snag for €450. Is this a decent deal? Does anyone own a D7 and have input about it? Cons, pros? Are there better ones in this price range? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 25 Nov 2019 05:34 PM PST I'm looking for some advice about adding door cameras, and remotely unlocking the doors to my condo. Right now, when the outside doorbell is pressed, the buzzer inside my unit rings. Condo bylaws say I can't touch this doorbell or any of the wires outside my unit, but once they come inside my walls and ring the chimes, I can do whatever I want. This is what would ideally happen when someone rings the doorbell.

| Posted: 25 Nov 2019 07:31 AM PST I just built a new home and had power outlets installed in water proof boxes in the eaves of the house to use for Christmas lights. I think I want to permanently install LED strip or rope lighting that I can just change colors depending on the holiday. I measured and I need about 500' to do the entire perimeter of my roof line. Looking for recommendations on what brand/type to get. I want them to be RGB at least, I'd love them to be able to flash between colors (like red/green for Christmas) and to be able to connect them end-to-end so I don't have to run extension cords. Have any of you folks done this before? Any cautions/advice/recommendations? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 25 Nov 2019 03:25 AM PST Hey, building a house and coming up to rough in stage. Not looking at a crazy setup, just want to future proof. What must haves would you say I'd need, looking at the moment to set up cat 6 to most rooms (bedrooms, home theatre) & security camera locations, any other ideas? Possible conduit?

| Are there cheap wifi plugs that do not work with the cloud? Posted: 25 Nov 2019 04:17 AM PST Hi! I want to automate very few things, and I do not want them to be linked to any cloud services for various reasons. I only want the simplest functionality, so I'm looking for a plug or a wall switch that simply switches on/off through a simple connection to the device. Something simple and cheap! Thanks!

| Posted: 25 Nov 2019 06:20 AM PST I am building a farm house now and am in the framing stage. I have never had anything automated in a home before. What would be a good starter package to install that would not become obsolete too quickly and is fairly simple to operate? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 25 Nov 2019 04:03 AM PST Hey All, I have been watching the TV Show Years and Years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wikiYears_and_Years_(TV_series) I was wondering if anyone knows what Lights they used for the Señor system? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 25 Nov 2019 09:46 AM PST I am trying to install smart switch in my basement. My wiring looks like this [diagram]( https://www.easy-do-it-yourself-home-improvements.com/3-way-switch-wiring-diagram.html). I do not have neutrals in either box. I only have a hot black, and a red and white traveler that goes to the other switch. I also have a ground but that's not that important. I know smart 3way switches require a neutral to always stay powered. I am close to pulling the plug on this but I read somewhere it is possible to make it work by installing a smart switch at both locations. Is this possible? If I install at both switches would they both have to be a 3way smart switch? Are there any limitations to this setup besides cost? [link] [comments] | ||
| Please, I need RadioRA 2 inclusive software! Posted: 25 Nov 2019 04:57 PM PST Hello, I'm in a bind. I have radiora2 essentials and have used it for some time. Now I got to extract/modify a project that used inclusive and so can someone please help me out by sending me a zip or share via Dropbox or other way?

| Posted: 25 Nov 2019 11:38 AM PST I am pretty confused with so many options being thrown at me with regards to smart home. Voice assistant: Alexa Hub --> Smart things hub Thermostat --> Honeywell (will connect to smart-things) Vacuum --> Neato D7 (will connect to smart-things) Speaker for living room --> Sonos play-bar (will connect to smart-things) Doorbell --> Ring doorbell (will connect to smart-things) Security system --> Ring? (will connect to smart-things) Question: Since i am getting ring doorbell does it make sense to get ring sensors and motion detector? or can i do mix and match of ring + Samsung? What will be easier and recommended? Lights: Totally confused! My priority is to get recessed lights that has both yellow and white lights (Warm and day light) and i will then get smart switch that will connect to smart-things. Question: Am i getting this right? Please recommend me which recessed light should i get that has 2 color temperature (yellow + white) [link] [comments] | ||

| Aeoetec Aeon z-stick alternative Posted: 25 Nov 2019 03:26 AM PST So I have a z-wave Z-stick from Aeoetec(you know the one) and recently bought a raspberry pi 4, which has a known issue with the z-stick which means it only works through a USB 2.0 hub. Less than ideal. Can anyone recommend another z-wave USB stick that works with the raspberry pi 4? [link] [comments] | ||

| Looking for single camera + cloud recommendations Posted: 25 Nov 2019 07:39 AM PST I'm looking for a camera that runs off an AC adapter (I don't need or want a battery) that has a reasonably priced cloud-based DVR. I know ONVIF cameras, but I'm a fish out of water in this "pro-sumer" space. Any suggestions? [link] [comments] | ||
| Suggestions for Clark Griswalding my house using automation? Posted: 25 Nov 2019 01:23 AM PST My grandson will be 18 months old at Christmas this year, and this Gigi wants to go balls-to-the-wall with the light show outside. We've got a couple of the snowflake projectors, a laser kaleidoscope deal. I'm really looking for automated lighting, controllers, etc. Any suggestions? [link] [comments] | ||

| Do I need to re-pair when adding a zwave extender? Posted: 25 Nov 2019 04:12 AM PST I have a smartthings v2 hub and a Zwave plus GE outdoor outlet that's roughly 50 feet away through one wall - but it sometimes will ignore my commands. Yesterday I added a Monoprice outlet with zwave plus repeater on the wall. Is the device smart enough to now bounce from that device to my hub? Or do I need to re-pair the outlet? [link] [comments] |
