    More setting up today

    Sonos, Apple TV, chromebox, hello, miracast
  • s
    Good choice with Sonos. Never seen it mounted vertical
  • s
    I have the playbar and sub

    About to order another SuperServer. I was looking at the 12 core over the regular 8 core but it's a $730 difference. Not sure if it's worth it for lab stuff.
  • k
    Don't think so @Jason Samuel, might be better to have 3x8 cores than 2x12cores
  • k
    Installed my Hue lights and Harmony Hub in <15 mins today, hooking them up to my Amazon Dot tomorrow... next step are the shutters
  • j
    @Kees Baggerman Nice! Somfy?
  • k
    Haven't looked at it yet, this was the first step. Let me check them out
  • k
    Hmm €99 per Window..
  • k
    That's €700 just for my living room, I need to make the WAF work here
  • j
    Here's my opinion on Somfy if you go with them. I had ordered roller shades so my zwave options were limited at the time. If you have shutters I know there are some ways to retrofit existing shutters using must cheaper 3rd party motors. http://www.jasonsamuel.com/home-automation-internet-of-things-iot-cheat-sheet/#Blinds_roller_shades_other_window_coverings
  • j
    Yeah, Somfy is pretty expensive. I only did half the windows in the home motorized and the other half regular pull shades. WAF was low at first, Echo/Echo Dots changed that quickly
  • k
    I might be looking to retrofit the existing stuff as my wife paid a small fortune for custom shutters/shaders
  • k
    Any suggestion there?
  • j
    When I last researched (I think around Nov 2015) many of the zwave retrofits were still pretty basic kits. Things have probably changed by now.
  • j
    And yeah, I'm definitely in the wrong business. Should have gotten into blinds, AC, or plumbing haha.

    About to order 2 more for my mobile kit
  • j
    Nice, the 12 core?
  • u
    I need another couple 200-8Ds for my lab 😉 But the cost is so damn much!
  • j
    Yep 12 core and use the sce300 case
  • j
    Nice. I'm still sticking with the SYS-5028D-TN4T for now. The fit side by side on a server shelf perfectly. I'm thinking about mounting another shelf behind it from the 2 rear posts so I can have 4 of them down the road all within a 6U space.
  • j
    My dev box is that case
  • u
    It's the RAM that kills it

    Someone aware of a (freeware) video editor where I can put two videos parallel?
