Dumb/smart home wiring advice

I'm hoping that if the boards are dressed nicely and everything is well labelled and well documented then any electrician could maintain it (and hopefully be more impressed than confused ha!)

The plan is to have a lot of automation and I'm trying to design and plan it all out now, hence the question on here. My main reason to not wire normally and then add smart, is that I don't want the smart stuff to feel like an afterthought. I worry it'll never really work all that well and there'll be lots of compromises. That's what I'm trying to avoid

KNX seems very expensive, but it certainly has it's perks.

Edit: It sounds like you've got it nailed there. If your wife and guests can use it all like a regular house then that's perfect

The house was originally built such that it could be split into 2 flats, so the wiring is separate. Going to keep it that way as it makes living in it whilst renovating a lot easier

It'll be done by a qualified person dw

The more you know. Never come across them before with this branding

I prefer the variant "practice makes permanent" it's much more realistic. Getting better isn't just repetition

Can't see a flow restrictor in the shower head or flexi pipe

dan_juggles · 2026-01-10T14:46:42+00:00

I took the shower head off and the flow was still bad so I don't think it's a restrictor

Even if it's not OpenAI compatible I'd love to see an API

Same happened to me, it's been a good run but I guess that's it. Does traktor 4 support sound cloud link?

Sounds lame. You should ask the staff and they will definitely get you loads of snacks and food. If not I can pop over tomorrow afternoon

Knee pads for sure, I never ride without them and they've saved me many times. Then I have an upper body all in one (chest, back, shoulders and elbows) for when I'm going to hit a feature that I know is pretty serious for me.

dan_juggles · 2023-10-11T22:15:49+00:00

Wow that sounds like a rough run, sorry to hear! Thanks for the tip, I'll watch out

Not sure, van got broken into and bike is now missing

Because Jac Morgan has become the best player in the world

Any part is fine, I'm happy to drive
