BEDROOM 3 (Retro Room)

The kitchen is one of the highest energy usage areas in the home, and required the most monitoring devices and also a central control panel to monitor and control the energy usage.

  • 1 x SwitchBot temperature and humidy sensor
  • 3 x Led Bulbs
  • 1 x Echo Dot

Smartbot Temperature & Humidity Sensor

As winter approached it was important to monitor the homes temperature and humidity to reveal if there were any issues with heat escaping or high humidity causing damp and mould.

Echo Dot – 2nd Gen

I added this echo dot to the Retro room so the power to the 4 gang can be voice activated and deactivated.
