(turn lights on in a natural ‘entering the room’ order and turn them off the other way around, mimicking leaving the same room.
I’m just messing about as well and I don’t want to use wifi, that’s why I’m half looking at zugbee. (And Ikea uses that system, so I guess it’ll be available for a while)
I was worried about drowning out my network with Wi-Fi devices but I don’t want to invest in Z-Wave or Zigbee unless Thread falls through. Here’s to hoping 🤞
