Re: Looking for ideas



Hello Neil,

while I applaud people who are able to build their own hardware, I really
wonder if it makes so much sense to build yet another HA RF system. I
wonder how much money you really save (IF you would include the time you
invest at 5GBP/hour).

Z-Wave, EnOcean, X10-RF, KNX-RF, ZigBee... all these exist. Is it really
worth it to build another one?
