  1. Exactly. The air gap is there to kill current up to the load / lights. You most likely caused a small short of some sort for a fraction of a second. Just enough for the switch to protect itself and you.
  2. Hello Faught, I am sorry to hear that this is how you feel about your system. PM sent.
  3. CA-10 covers the largest of projects, however, the EA-5 would do nicely for what you have described in your OP.
  4. Simply put, Control4 will do you well. for both homes. remote dealer could help, but an established and reputable dealer is your best bet. Contact Control4 Directly and ask to speak to your area Sales Manager to get a few names of dealers.

SHNITPWR 5V 5A DC Power Supply Adapter 5 Volt 5 Amp 25W AC 100V~240V to DC Converter Transformer LED Driver with 5.5x2.5mm DC Tip for WS2812B WS2813 LED Pixel Strip TV Box USB HUB Raspberry Pi Arduino https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07S7Q9J8G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Li-aFbFK3PSGE I use this all the time - even comes with a nice adapter - so you don’t have to cut the wires
  7. In my experience the HC800 outperforms the EA-3. And I would simply put the project on that. Happy Automating!!
  8. 5. I know music cannot be controlled through this driver currently, but are there any established workarounds that work cleanly? (i.e. creating a dummy light called "Kitchen Music" and then programming music to turn on/off against the state of that light?) Much appreciate any input! I have in the past created (dummy) switches. Name them the name of a device. Create two switches in C4 to get started. A Switch called “Living Mary favourite tunes” and also Then create a switch called “Living Media Off”. I would then create a script or macro that would start at the light. When light on, select Mary’s Spotify in living room. As well as turn on the “Living Media Room Off” switch. and then would say “Hey Siri, turn on Living Mary favourite tunes”. And then a script or macro when “Living Media Room Off” is turn off, turn off living room and turn of any other “media “ virtual switches in the room. Happy Automating!!
  9. This is Vince Yost. using Vince Yost’s account. a strong drink for sure. I am alive. And well. I have been hibernating. Like a bear
  10. Do you need help with this till? Happy Automating!!
  11. The remote that is soldered and connected to a relay is very reliable. Basic wireless communication. Will not give you notification that the gate is open or closed though. Happy Automating!!
  12. Feel like I just visited my own funeral.... Good evening all. And thank you for the love Happy Automating!!
  13. Uh, I am here. Not dead. Consider it a “ I was Hacked “ moment. Sorry for the confusion. This is Vince. Here I am. Happy Automating!!
  14. Alright, I will tackle this. Please see my reply later today as I will have to build it my self. PS. My name is Mike and I have taken over VINCELdUB’s account as he is no longer here. I will strive to continue providing the care and attention to detail as he did. Happy Automating!!
  15. Take a quick peek at the two images you have sent. Which one can be accomplished in the least amount of clicks? For the sake of time and characters onscreen, I feel you have your own answer. PS. This is mike. Vince’s partner. I have taken over VINCELdUB’s postings as he is no longer here.

  19. Yeah, what mr. greenfield solutions said. ^ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. I am glad to help. Amazing what pops up when bumbling around in the forums. And a reminder of how much time has passed. I remember this driver like it was yesterday.
  21. Well done. Scientific. And concise. Don’t think there is much more to add to that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. This also depends on the sources. For example, a cable box is most likely “always on” therefore the audio output is always on. So there is no change for the amp to see. also, the detection is based on output from source. There will be a minimum power output required to “trigger” the sensing on the amp. I have used a preset volume that is higher for a moment to trigger the sensing on other devices in the past. perhaps making sure the device’s audio output actually stops producing power when off or not selected would help.
  23. What is a ”DVD”??? Now, laser disc, that was impressive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. I found a similar power supply with more amperage and replaced it with that. Was 3-4 years ago. But a good old electronics search should yield the required results. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
