In the process of a new build at about to start the 2nd fix. At 1st fix, I cabled the house so that the light switch and the light socket both go back to a central terminal. I did this for all the lights I wanted to control/automate. Now it has come to 2nd fix; I was planning on using standard touch switches for each light switch and using a relay of some sort that would enable the remote control of the light - the question is which relay and will this relay allow a standard touch switch to on/off the light and also allow for the web/phone to switch on/off the light ? Also, is there a different relay that needs to be used if I want to dim lights?
I was looking at ZWave with LightwaveRF and a Vera Lite controller that would be used to connect/talk to the relays. Is that the correct assumption ?
Also IFTTT so i can do thinks like switch on the lights as I approach the house or switch off the lights when I leave etc..
thanks for the help..
