Hi All,
I have just moved to a new house which requires full renovation complete with a new automation system.
I am fairly experienced with home automation, my last home was kitted out with mainly homeeasy and bbstandby powered by homeseer and rfxcom.
I am struggling with what to go for this time round. There were many flaws with my previous system that I wish to improve on this time round. The brief for the next installation is as follows:
1. I would like a system that does not require a pc.
2. The main method of control is iPad, almond with wall switches.
3. The switches need to be either customisable or at least look nice ie satin black finish etc.
4. As always the system must be WAF!
5. A modular din rail system would be smart but not essential.
6. I am on a tight budget so it needs to be modular or cheap. I don't mind hacking stuff etc and I will be installing myself as I am electrically qualified.
7. The ability to add sensors and switches would need to provide feedback.
I have a few ideas but would be interested to hear what you guys think.
Many thanks
Chris
