What Smart Home Systems?

im aware of RFlightwave but at £60 for a fooking light switch, its beyond me and probably most.

what other systems are out there for controlling lights and heating etc from one system?

I use philips hue and nest which both work well. They're not the cheapest if you're just starting out with it though.

Can vouch for Hue being good (albeit expensive) but if you get a Nest too it can all be controlled through something like amazon Alexa.

I couldn't think of anything worse
an app is all I require

Both work great from my phone with location etc. Also loads of different hue apps to try.
The £20 light switches are also well worth it.

Haha I know exactly what you mean, better things to do than shout across the room at a plastic box only for it to misunderstand and start playing one direction through your stereo haha. Personally I use HomeKit on iPhone so you can control all your lights from control centre. Easy peasy.
