House got broken into. Time for a security system. I've been interested in home automation for a while now and after sitting through ADT's in home presentation on pulse... I started wondering why it was so expensive and so limited? So I've decided to build my own.
I think everything below is compatible, if not please let me know.
My question is what zwave programmable thermostat can I use and I will be getting an 8 or 16 channel DVR security camera system to go with it. Any recommendations?
ELK-M1GSYS4 - ELK M1 Gold Security and Automation Kit
ELK-M1XEP - elk Ethernet Port Interface
ELK-M1XRF2H - ELK Wireless Receiver For Use With Honeywell Sensors
5820L - Slim Line Wireless Door/Window Transmitter
ELK-70 - ELK Interior Speaker
5834-4 - Ademco Honeywell 4 Button Wireless Keyfob
5853 - Ademco Wireless Glass Break
5800PIR-RES - Ademco Honeywell Wireless Pet Immune Motion Sensor
GS3060 - GSM Universal Wireless Alarm Communicator
Potential Thermostat
Aprilaire 8800 Touchscreen Communicating Thermostat
Aprilaire 8811 Protocol Adapter
8818 Aprilaire Distribution Panel
Info on thermostats from Elk website under aprilaire_integration
At least an 8 channel DVR system is a must!
I found all this stuff (except potential thermostat products) on homesecuritystore.com. They say tech support is included should I go with them for the tech support? Prices are higher than Amazon and other sources.
Taken some electronic engineering courses and own a PC repair business with PC's and Mac's so I'm hoping the install isn't too far outta my league.
Any other goodies I should install or stay away from please let me know.
