Must…buy… remote lighting

I should let people know that for technologies related to domotics I’m a big fan of the new releases developed through companies like SmartLabs and Inc.

Many of these new products developed shouldn’t be considered actually as new as they appear due to the fact that these things could be done previously working with other standard items but for those starting out they’re presented as a organized package. Another perk is you won’t feel like you need a complicated circuit diagram to make it work.

A deeper look shows us a few resemblances among the brands. For example, not one of the product lineups use battery-operated devices as signal relays, and it seems like all use advanced RF to strengthen signals. Beyond this still, it gets more complicated – Rather than endeavor to express it here and make a bunch of errors, there’s a site here Insteon vs X10 has good discussions analyzing the differentiators.

Now if you have any thoughts on methods to make enough cash to cover the new obsession, for pete’s sake pass it along!

Every once in a while, I hate 2 hour delays due to poor driving!

Many times I take satisfaction in the day job, but some days the traffic coming in is sufficient to force me to retire early. There are new motorists with hardly any concentration to the road. Adding insult to injury, I knocked over my Starbucks driving in to the garage...

There's always tomorrow.
