From a post on this forum I have been researching using the Insteon system to control some lights around my pool via automation. I noticed that Lowes sells a similar system called the Iris system. Does anyone have any experience with either of these systems Pros/Cons/User Reviews that might help me in making my decision, or even offer an alternative suggestion.
For right now, here are the basics that I would like to consider controlling with an automated system.
Turning On/Off my 500W standard pool light
Turning On/Off (maybe even dimming) my halogen flood lights that surround my deck/patio/pool
Turning On/Off some basic landscape lighting
Right now I have switches to turn these things on and off, but they are not all located near each other, so when I go to turn things on or off I feel like I am constantly walking all around my house. I would love a system that uses a remote, or even better my phone to be able to control these things.
