Horses for courses :-)

I mainly use mine t  fire off a sequence of events, rather than just turn
something on or off. The main one being a bedtime macro, which when
triggered
turns the patio light on, for the dog t  go and pee, I then either turn it
off manually, or it gets switched off 3 minutes later. It also turns the TV
&
other equipment off downstairs & turns the TV on upstairs. Lastly it
sets a
timer t  turn the upstairs TV off an hour later.
