Apple has opened up HomeKit!! So theoretically if someone had a DIY automation box can add Siri integration. Now who's going to build one of these things for Pentair equipment?

Personally I would not suggest to build DIY automation due to lack of UL or CE certification.

Currently I find that PE653RC is cheapest automation working with smartthings hub:

Possibly it could work with Apply HomeKit.

I might do Arduino later.

FYI with 5 vdc or less at 2 amps or less would ul or ce be really needed?
