There was an Echo Dot under the tree for me this Christmas!
I've been thinking about getting an IR/RF blaster, so I can (try to) talk to various devices..
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GIXZDKO
Since this blaster is not IFTTT friendly, my second choice is:
http://www.hooksmarthome.com/
I thing could use the Broadlink RM2 (or Hook) RF output to link into my X-10 switches (I now use the CAI or the X10 RF remote to control X10 switches).
That got me wondering if I could run some IFTTT using PLC gett1.cgi to read the temperature sensors??
"http://192.168.1.15/gett1.cgi"
It would be nice to be able to read the outdoor temp and have the Echo Dot alert me when it was under 10F outdoors..
Has anyone here linked an Echo Dot up with their CAI board??
I'm not a programmer, so I don't envision getting anything done without a lot of effort and any help I can find here..
Thanks,
Rich
