I'm wondering if you can grant a waiver from the rules so we can link to hardware relevant for Home Automation for a while and discuss pricing and compatibility etc.?
I think it will make it a bit easier to discuss economy, market and MX compatibility if it doesn't have to be a secret what hardware we are talking about.

What forum rule are you referring to? No waivers from Forum Rules will be granted.

What forum rule are you referring to? No waivers from Forum Rules will be granted.

Since you can't see any, then I don't know why I should, so I will just take it as a green light and hope it helps.

Be aware that if any further posts do violate the Forum Rules they will be sanctioned.

EDIT: Possibly the wrong word used. not sanctioned but deleted and perhaps the topic to be closed.

I am sorry but I don't understand. What do you mean by 'any further'.?

[richb]

Any new posts made in the topic violating forum rules.

[Eadwine Rose]

Future, new.

Just because your current plans don't break the rules does not mean we will not watch the posts still to come.

[Jakob77]

Okay, then I guess we are hitting the same wavelength after all.
That is if you just tell me green light doesn't mean green light for anything as for instance spamming advertisements.
Let's just handle with care please. We don't need cheat but we do need some hardware for Home Automation and some room to dig in deep.


Could it be worth trying to make a switch manufacturer interested.?

[Eadwine Rose]

We will treat this as a normal topic, just like any other. Not as something that will become something official now or in the future.

@Jakob77 Maybe the first step of this is to create a couple of urls for the mfg's or specific products you want to spotlight and see how people react?

If there is interest, then see about including a person from the mfg?

I know personally, I would rather hear about people USING the product, how it worked / didnt work for them. Then based on that, I can deep dive into a product and go after reviews. (personally - I take very little from sales peeps regarding their products. ;/
