Ok. Few days ago, I posted Brightup http://www.producthunt.com/posts... a company that sells smart plugs and an app to control them.
Today, I'm sharing with you the solution I ended up buying for my flat: the TellStick Router.
Several reason why I picked Telldus over other products using more recent technologies (wifi, z-wave, etc.):
- the TellStick solutions are compatible with different brand of plugs (some of them are pretty cheap: I paid less than 20€ for 3 plugs)
- said compatible plugs are often sold with a remote (which is great: you don't always want to have to use your phone to turn off the light..)
- it uses a pretty old and well known technology to control the plugs
- it supports sensors (thermometers, etc.)
- there's an online service and an app to schedule and control the plugs
- it's opensource (yay!)
What do you guys think about it?
