Re: Heavy Duty Appliance Switch

JSJS, as far as I know, designed the Home Easy Ultimate range. There's been a variety of chat on their forums regarding their WiFiLink (slightly misleadingly named equivalent of the Tellstick Net) supporting HomeEasy kit but they don't have any plans. They have hinted that the Lightwave RF protocol ...

Re: Tellstick Net scheduling options etc

Would also appreaciate this option, suspect it'll all happen in time - once temperature sensors can trigger events then you could workaround this by having a predefined max temp switch off your booster. I've got a hacked HE in line plug wired as a relay in parallel with my boiler thermostat - it's T...

Re: Tellstick Net scheduling options etc

Didn't think of using the HE304, wish I had now, I quite like the in-line plug things for transient bits of kit i.e. christmas trees and I'm also guessing the circuitry on the HE304 is smaller, put the gubbins from the plug into an electrical box leaving the led and switch poking out but it was a ti...

Re: Tellstick Net scheduling options etc

Hehe - amusing and accurate! ;) We all worry about energy efficiency but often forget the "wasted" heat is keeping us warm.. Start considering the carbon savings of energy efficient kit vs the carbon cost of what you spend the saved cash on and you're into a far more interesting debate. Fa...

Re: Tellstick Net scheduling options etc

Nice range of kit! The HE wall light switches are quite nice, main downside being the inability to switch off the rather bright blue led when they are off. Great for anywhere apart from the bedroom. The Lightwave ones look nicer and HE has been stagnant for years now, Lightwave are supplying Seimens...

Re: Tellstick Net scheduling options etc

I need to rewire the insane wiring scheme in my flat before I get to the hall and masters / slave combos. It's like a fun / clown house at the moment... Usual issues on the LW forums about hardware but general consensus is that it is excellent. Very interesting to hear that the WiFi link has 868 on ...

Re: Tellstick Net scheduling options etc

Intriguing. The JSJS guys that build Lightwave built the high end HE kit, so I'd kind of hoped they were using 433 for the LWRF stuff (as they already had experience) and saving 868 for other stuff. Definite hope for future Tellstick compatibility. Interestingly, 868 is the UK frequency for Z-Wave s...

Re: comparison...

Markus, AFAIK at the moment Tellstick Net is limited to interface through Telldus Live only. There is an open development ticket here : http://developer.telldus.com/ticket/114 with the intention of local control for the Tellstick Net, it's marked "critical" so it's fairly safe to assume it...

Re: comparison...

I wouldn't worry about it not being verified by Telldus, owner and reporter are both Micke Prag who is an admin here and a Telldus employee. The Tellstick Net's are difficult to get hold of, I was waiting for local control before buying one from Sweden (have a few mates there who were willing to shi...
