Home automation / Re: Irrigatoin or Sprinkler controller support?

If they can control the valves used by the system, sure. If I remember correctly most are 24v AC valves. So if a relay switch could handle that it could easily set the valve on/off. Or more regular modules could turn the power supply on/off as needed. There are usually workarounds available to most things, especially if you can do some DIY... The problem is that it usually does not look as nice, may not be as robust, etc...

So would a bunch of binary switches work as controller?

Not really. In most cases these are really just acting as MANY on/off switches (I thought I saw one that handles 16) but as far as I know the current Securifi implementations for multi-switches tend to only do 2 switches.

Not sure what the overall demand is to try to get Securifi to add support, but the best you can do is email support and let them know your interest. I have to assume they keep track of such requests when trying to figure out future features.

There's a few old threads for this but seems to go no where. Are there none that work with almond?

You need a ZigBee enabled Almond router to update the firmware unfortunately.

Has been requested before. Work around is:  Turn on Ryobi batteries, then wait 300 seconds, then turn on Ryobi batteries, then wait 300 seconds.... Repeat until you hit the amount of time you want to use.

Almond+ / Re: 5 GHz network not working on iOS device

« Last post by cff on May 18, 2018, 07:54:42 pm »

5 Ghz has been pretty terrible for iOS devices for me through every (release and beta) firmware version since the A+ was released. It still is, unfortunately. At this point, I don't ever expect it to get better.
