2.0

OK, This is just a first beta of the little movie we will produce after the Easter break so we have something to show at our opening party, but we wanted already to give it a try and see if we had enough pictures ...

No sound, just images, 120 seconds of pictures :-)

If you know a nice soundbite for the next one, let me know ...

Remember those days when we told you about the table full of X10 elements that had arrived.

Well, today we took a jump in the deep and started to look at a Swedish Alternative, called Nexa.

The main driver for this was that Nexa is readily available here in Sweden in any main street DIY Shop like K-Rauta or Bauhaus and it caught my eye as it has the typical X10 wheel, but would it work with our already installed suite of X10 and Homeseer ?

So what is Nexa ?
Nexa is a rebrand of the Home Easy Product range using its own proprietary format and targetted to the Swedish Market.

Today we had family over and before we know we were talking about the automated lightening, and mormor thought the bathroom lightening was really not working well (there is no obvious off button available), and so we went through a full demo ...

And yes, after a little while the obvious topic of the 21st century popped up when explaining the scenes and events build around sunrise and sunset, and farmor thought all this Home Automation really added to saving energy and thus ... eco-friendly, lowering our carbon footprint, and yes ... saving the world.

I could not resist in taking a little provocative stance on the topic, and maybe the ROI on our budget is not as obvious as one would think, but it is always good to feel good when saving the planet ...

Time flies fast when you are having fun ...
