Thanks for the encouragement Justintime and others, its great to see a heathly, helpful forum. By the way, just bought a DOT from John Lewis for £49, less than a week ago with a view it might someday control the heating Just seen this if anyone was after one. http://www.johnlewis.com/amazon-echo-dot- ...

I really would appreciate if you could expand on this when you have time theolson because I'm sure there will be more then sach and myself waiting to see how you did it, thats really cool. What i did'nt say was I installed the nest smoke alarm last weekend (as it works as a stand alone) and I looked ...

Great stuff sach,
Sure whatever happens I'll post here, and I really really would appreciate if you would too, you can't beat experiance !!
Good luck with your new install !

Thanks Sach thats really decent of you I tried LWRF back in April 2013, when B&Q were selling them and they were then supposed to be intruducing a Rad thermostat and I waited about a year before I gave up on them. But I'm up for the challange again, so as I have a spare Pi, I thought I would at ...

And it was not going to connected to the system if I ever get it working, but I have just bought a DOT !!

Hi Sach If its not a too bigger ask I'd really would like to know what set up you have please Was it just a matter of flashing Domoticz image on to a micro sd, stick that in the Pi with the Aeon stick, I guess not (but I'm hoping) And I do know of the rad vales you mention, I think they are made by ...

I just have this ...

Hi PVM Thanks for the reply It's great you replied Could you please post the link to the wiki page for the Raspberry Pi info, just so that I know I am in the right location Also you said you used the Aeon stick Is this the one? https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00YETCNOE/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl ...
