Runs wires to blinds, uses wireless leak detectors.
“I like hardwired things and hate batteries for stuff” -proceeds to put multiple battery powered leak detectors in THE CRAWL SPACE!?!?!?!?
One day Alec will notice you Linus... one day....
So wait...yall put coin cell battery devices in the crawl space, AND they drain all their power if the hub ever goes down? That will sure be fun for the owner. For anyone that thought that sounds cool for your house, they make ones that are offline with wired sensors, and since the sensors are just 2 wires and continuity you can run them really far. Sometimes the smartest home you can have is carefully thought out dumb devices.
Linus: "I like to have this stuff hardwired" Also Linus: "Wireless leak detectors!"
All I've learned from the LTT tech house so far is to never try it myself
We all just want to make Alec from TC proud of us.
Those leak detectors need to be as close to the source of the possible leak as possible. If the water has time to get to the crawl space from above a lot of damage has already been done. In the cabinet under the sink, behind the toilet, under the dishwasher, behind the washing machine....
I love how the Technology Connections references just keep getting more obvious and blatant until the real youtube tech king finally notices linus 😭
All the problem they have with this smart home stuff makes me never want to even try it.
15:49 Editor, please isolate Reece's "We did it!" For future use.
Yet another episode of "A smart home is a stupid idea, and here's why"
Imagine reselling this house? Telling the knew owner all the apps and logins they need to run shit haha
The sensors under the kitchen and bathroom sinks should ideally be in the cabinets, not in the crawl space. You want to catch the water leaks as soon as possible, before it has a chance to ruin the millwork, floors, etc.
0:10 I've got my heat pump, solar panels, house battery and EV, so I choose to believe Alec is proud of me.
17:42 The fact that the special admin code is 00000 is like having an admin account with the password "admin". It's so painful but so funny.😂
Watching this video as my appartment lost its water..... timing is hilarous.
I appreciate this series to understand how many issues there are owning a house and the ways to address them.
All this is confirming is Smart Home still isnt at a level id put it in my home...
