Home automation is actually nothing new. It ahs been around for many years with the introduction of X-10. Although the technology does advertise it can save you money, it
is more of a cool playboy and a convenience feature then it is a money saver. If you do the math, buying modules and software to initially set up your system will set you back quite a few dollars. The question is, how long will it take with your lights being remotely controlled to get all that invested money back in your pocket? The answer is probably never.
