Would this product be suitable for North American environment. It's a hard wired system but pricing is reasonable. It does provide cloud based services but I would never make my system reliant on any of it. One thing venders are starting to do is make their system more and more reliant on the...

Does anyone know whether the Bose range of wireless speakers can be controlled by third party apps. I'm currently deciding on a home sound system and would like to use Demopad to control it. Thanks.

A little more info http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating , scroll right to the bottom under section 'Water heater safety'.

I think its set for approx 140 or 145. Most of the savings are had because of the higher electricity prices during certain hours of the day. Generally I only run the HWH during off-peak times, I have also programmed an override switch in ISY for the odd time we need it. I have mine set for...

ano, You should not let the water cool down so much. It should not be allowed to cool lower than 130 degees. I've been doing this for some time now and have not experienced the problem you described. Yes there is some initial outlay but most things you do to save energy dollars are a long term...

Beaumeri, Yes there is savings to be had. Actually I have found this to one of the biggest saving on my pursuit of lower energy bills. On the 12th Nov the hot water heater was on 24 hours, usually I have it on only during off peak hours. You can see it came in at over 20 KWH. Just make sure...

Thanks Wayne, I just signed up.

It seems like their hosting company may have had a problem. I agree that the product itself has terrific potential in these times of higher energy costs, they are obviously going through some growing pains while demand for their product and service is very high. I've experienced the same as you...

Yep, unfortunately I have to agree with that, having browsed through the spec, extended messaging was clearly part of it from the start.

az1324, My understanding from what SteveL has said is that ALL devices (apart from battery) will repeat i1 and i2 messages around the network. Only devices designed to use i2 extended messages can utilize its added functionality and only i2 devices can repeat Extended messages. Added access...

If you look at one of Steve's previous posts in this thread, he states the following: So unless I'm misunderstanding your question I think SteveL has already confirmed that i1 devices repeat i2 messages around the network.

I could be wrong but isn't Digger asking about i1(only) devices and whether they possess the ability to repeat i2 messages? If so then I'm surprised at SteveL's reply???

They have quite a few other units too, These particular fixtures come in a mounted bracket version and a pot light verson. I used the unit with a bracket as my evestrough is wood and they sit nicely up underneath and the bracket give you plenty of flexibility of movement. See this post Wayne

For those who haven't seen LED accent lighting, here is night shot (with snow) of the first two walls. Each light is 1.2 watts of warm white light. These are high quality LEDs (made in Canada), which are suppose to last longer, and are considerably brighter than the cheaper variety. Each light...

Good topic. I'm currently installing some high quality Nemalux decorative LED lights around the outside of my home. The PODS house an adjustable magnifying lens allowing for variable light angle from 12o to 120o, excellent for outside use and hi-lighting various walls and areas around the home...
