Chatting with Joe got me thinking …..

There was a home on HGTV which probably made me salivate – It was crazy motorized drapes and had done a so-so job setting things up. It seemed like every light and fan had a remote control and I think even the garage doors and hot tub were fully integrated.
I always liked Zwave for ages but seeing a system of this caliber, it was wicked and I’m still in shock.
I’ve thought about letting the current place do cool things like following me with music through the house or reminding us of obligations as we leave the house. Although these situations are most realistically a couple years in the future (it should be noted that there are people that are in the process of it) nonetheless items like lighting control which respond to your moods are ubiquitous and affordable now. I think I need to win over my other half...... at which point I’m sure she’ll just love the place that got me interested: ISY-99
