    Thanks for the video Alex :). You explained it pretty well especially how it can be used outside the BT range. Cool way of explaining it through diagrams, simple and direct to the point ;) I wonder if they sell these in Australia?

    I think this will be really useful for me especially if you have individual switches that you would like to automate yet you do not need to change the whole switch. It is safe and fuss-free! Planning to use it for my heater since it is a storage heater and will take a while to get the hot water. Before leaving home or after returning from home, I will be able to automate or wirelessly turn on the switch and get a warm shower easily!
