How To Make Your Sweet Home a Smart Home

November 25, 2019 By Pravin 2 Comments

A Smart Home does not have to mean spending a lot of money and investing a lot of time on expensive home devices. If you are clear with your wants and needs, just replacing your existing gadgets and appliances with connected and automated versions of similar things would be sufficient. 

In this article, I will explain to you how to make a smart home and what is a smart home device.

What is a Smart Home Device?

A smart home device is an internet-connected device that enables you to monitor remotely and manage the appliances such as lighting, heating, and security.

A smart home device provides you with security, comfort, convenience and energy efficiency by allowing the device to control from your smartphone or voice-enabled devices like Google Home and Alexa.

Smart home devices also reduce the amount of time that you spend on tasks on a daily basis. For example, having to go back home to see if you have turned off any appliance can be easily taken care of by smart home gadgets, which in turn saves your vital time.

The smart meter in the smart home devices enables you to understand your smart home device better. This way, you know which devices are drawing more power and thereby you can easily turn it off when not required and in turn save your money. 

Smart meters also make it easier to educate you and your family members on better ways to stay energy efficient. Thereby turning off energy-inefficient devices helps you to save money and leave a positive impact on the environment. This way, smart home devices can go a long way in keeping you more productive through time and money savings.

July 18, 2019 By Pravin 2 Comments

You can command a smart home switch to turn itself ON or OFF using your voice control by configuring your smart switch with virtual voice assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Home. 

The smart switch can also control itself with the help of the motion sensor by sensing temperature and humidity. The communication between you and the switch is either through radio transmission or power lines like X10.  

You can control your TV, washing machine, smart bulbs and ceiling fans with the help of a smart switch. However, not all smart home devices are compatible with the technology you are using. You need to keep certain parameters in mind while buying a smart home switch.

Things to consider while buying the best smart home switches

#1. Which technology are you familiar with

Your smart home switch should be compatible with the technology gadgets which you are using. Whether it is iPad, Android device, Alexa or Google Assistants, your smart switch should work with these technologies. In short, whatever technology is already part of your daily life should work with the smart home switches. 

If you do not know what platform your switches work with, you will want to find out which communication protocols to use. In that case, you need to purchase smart home bridge to communicate with your smart switch using your smartphone.
