Hey all, couple questions please. 1) What method are you using to do stuff like say: "Computer play jazz music" and jazz music streams from your computer's MP3's 2) Are there any inexpensive speaker switches that can be controlled by a harmony remote? I currently have an old push button one...

Home seer seems expensive at about $400 for the software :( I'm looking at a vera 2 which seems nice, BUT I'm researching z wave motion sensors and door/window sensor and also a z wave strobe EACH device seems to be $50!!!! Anyone know of any packages to reduce the cost?

As I initially stated, I'm not the first to bash a company. Thats not my goal. But when I go 6 weeks with limited replies, the 2 I do receive state 2 separate dates for "shipment" without ever being notified "we apologize for the delay". Especially when I point out the factual issue of me...

Hey Dan, THANK YOU for all your help and guidance. Stupid question here though lol Aside from the Elk how do I find an alarm panel that is supported by vera 2? Yes, I'm going to google it right now, just trying to get some education/info as I don't want to waste money on another alarm panel...

Can I get a Vera 2 and a Z wave motion sensor and program the vera 2 to "arm" if no motion for > 2 hours or something along those lines?

Hey all, I have an alarm (409b) I bought from www.alarmsellout.com and also zmodo security cameras I bought from cctvhotdeals.com. As I delve into the home automation world I am considering buying a vera 2 system to allow me to control my z wave lights remotely and from my phone. What are...

Well I feel this is worthy of an update. I feel bad as I know it is very tough to run a successful business. I received my replacement switch (finally). Well kind of. I received a dimmer switch and not the 3 way on/off kit. I emailed them a not so nice email thanking them for the additional...

SWEET! Thanks! I heard mixed reviews on the VERA, but am thinking of springing for one. My only question (I'm a noob) but what is the best way to accomplish this? What I have right now is a thinkstick in my computer controlling my "office" light and a z wave plug in lamp module for my sons...

What are AutoHTN and Home Buddy? Pick those up from the marketplace for droid?

Hey all, I have thinkessentials software which works fine from my computer so far. I am looking to incorporate my z wave world to my droid. What is the best and cheapest way? Should I remote desktop to my computer from my phone and use thinkessentials or is there some software out there to do...

I do not like bashing anyone, but feel I must share this with all of you. 1/4/2011I purchased a GE on/off 3-way kit for a great price from zwaveproducts.com Kit arrived promptly and I began to install this kit on 1/11/2011. One of the switches works, the other is dead no response. Called my...

Hey everyone, I am researching your suggestions and the ZRF113 appears to only have on/off functions. Wouldn't I want some form of hi/medium/low for the fan and a dimmer for the living room light? All the people on this board, I'm sure someone has done this, can't be that uncommon to...

Right now I have the harbor breeze remote that controls my fan. Basically it mounts up by the ceiling between the ceiling wiring and the fan. Basically the wiring comes down from the ceiling to the harbor breeze module (Which is proprietary RF) then to the fan wiring which links itself down to...

Hi everyone, I have a harmony 890 remote, and currently have a harbor breeze TRC-100L RF remote for my fan/light. I can't figure out how to get the harmony to control this so I assume this is not doable right? That said, is there a z wave device I can get to control my ceiling fan/light...

What system do companies like ADT etc use? And I think you guys are missing my question. I am wondering if I get rid of my kepad/main enclosure would it be possible to use these wireless motion detectors/door/window sensors with a different system? Or what I can do to find out.
