Re: Uk Plug format When --- the answer

Thats fine if you want plug convertors all over the place lol :D :D :D Actualy... They do fit in the 3 pin's wall plug. You will need to use a screwdriver to open the pin covers. The problem is the 2 pin part back to the 3 pin UK format. Screw driver trick dont work for each application. We use als...

Re: Led Project Spam :)

very nice done.... I use a dark green color under my bed and near my stairs it gives a nice glow over the floor in the night... it helps to keep me in the twilight zone when I wake up for a snack in the kitchen or the loo... sensor on feet level triggers the lighting on and keeps it on for 15 minute...

Plugwise gets NO PERSONAL DATA!! it is safe to use

Is it possible to intercept the signals and replace it with something else... maybe some very xxx related stuff? If we all daily upload some files of 500MB, their servers will be clocked up soon :) And the biggest question of all is... who is the third party who is collecting all the personal data o...

UK plug versions

Hi Paul, we in Singapore using the same UK plug. Have you think about using a KILL-A-WATT with a UK plug and hack it a little to get a pulse out? They are only 20 pounds and available from http://www.reuk.co.uk/Buy-UK-Power-Meter.htm Big advantage is that it will not send any personal data from your...

Wel / Geen HomeSeer. (Svp advies)

Gebruik zelf geen homeseer en heb mijn eigen programma geschreven. Voordeel is dat je het helemaal kan aanpassen aan je eigen wensen. Het vraagt natuurlijk wel om enig programeer kennis en is meer iets voor de meer ervaren HA freak. De reden dat ik HomeSeer niet gebruik is dat mijn systeem totaal ze...

Plugwise gets NO PERSONAL DATA!! it is safe to use

I do totally agree with Unit106 and many users on this forum that data collecting without knowing the location is totally useless. A fridge in Siberia gets quicker colder with less power usage then a fridge in Brasil. I do live in the tropics and with a average temperature of 32 degrees celsius year...

Slimme energiemeters schenden privacy

Oh 3 simpele redenen... <b>1. Openheid vs Sneeky</b> Het grote verschil voor mij is dat <u>de energie netbeheerders het eerlijk spelen</u> en niet eens uit de data kunnen achterhalen of ik een laptop bezit, een Philips LCD of een oude Sony TV bak. Plugwise doet dat dus wel en ook nog eens buiten onz...
