What are some home automation projects you have been working on? Recently I setup a counter for when the sump pump runs, and an alert if the pump gets stuck on.

My sprinkler system takes a long time to blowout with my air compressor. I have 1.5 acres, so the pressure doesn’t last long.

I also don’t have motion lighting in any bathrooms, etc. My motion lighting is in all the major rooms on the main floor. But I don’t turn off the lights till all motion on the floor clears. I just dim the lights based on percentage occupancy.

Yeah, that makes sense. My garden is a lot smaller than that.
