lads a customer requires 2 x lighting circuits for her garden lights, to avoid interior damage i recommended wireless equipment. i have searched on line but want to know what any of you might have used in past. very basic 230 volt lights 5 on each circuit. 2 gang switch required. thanks
 
Hello, Good to see this post ! I’m gonna use a kind of smart switch just like this which is driven by wifi and controlled by smart phone, who knows more about this please give some advice,can I change the temperature of air-conditioner ?
 
This is the kinda thing you could knock together with an Arduino board and a few lines of Python and PHP.
 
Smarthome is rather popular, like smart switch outlet, one of the main function is saving energy. even if you forget to turn off the power, you can still do it anywhere with your smart phone through WIFI . Sounds amazing !
 
You could use iNels (Scolmore) kit and standard devices - a remote switch tx behind an ordinary plate switch in the house and a remote actuator rx in a small IP box at the first lamp outside. Good for 200m open air (genuinely - I've done it).
 
Interesting post. I have 4 loads, all less than 1kw, mains voltage feed with 1 load off an led driver it's all IP rated external use.
Anyone used the 6 channel actuator as opposed to 4x 1 channel actuators?
 
The Wyse box is the best thing in your situation , I have a 4 channel one i use in the garden but you can always add another unit, you get a remote control with it..
