Nothing beats Creston

As with all technologies considered to be house automation I pay a lot of attention to any new stuff being announced through places like SmartLabs and Home Automation Inc.
The thing is these new devices being announced shouldn’t be considered actually as novel as they would seem due to the fact that they could be done before using existing off-the-shelf devices but for beginners they’re accessible as a organized set. As a side benefit you won’t need a 6 page schematic to set things up.
A deeper look shows us a few correlations with the technologies involved. As an example, not one of the offerings use handheld remote products as message repeaters, and they all use advanced RF one way or another. Looking deeper still, it becomes more interesting – I could endeavor to outline it myself and make mistakes, this place Zwave products has good discussions talking about any differentiators.
Now anyone with any visions for how I can bring in sufficient funds to cover the recent infatuation, don’t hesitate to let me know!
