This is exactly what I have been looking for! I have a damper on my air ducts in my house, and often I want to change the air flow based on the temps. This would allow me to adjust the flow automatically!!!!
@andrewjb44 It's so nice to know that our Switch Bot can solve your problem. Yes, the initial idea why we create Switch Bot is for this kind convenience.
@yourconnery The real issue might be connecting it to something like this . I'm assuming through IFTTT I will be able to create a rule that when my ecobee3 reacthes a certain the switch would open the damper.
@yourconnery depends on what you call long. The distance between winter and summer is short, but it does look like the handle calls for a large distance to travel. I would be happy to beta test a unit, and film it for you if you are interested.
@andrewjb44 Great thanks for your exploring for Switch Bot! Yes, the handle distance is large as I see. Could you measure the actual distance needed to push then we can figure out the switch possibility theoretically.
Just because everything around us is getting smarter, it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re becoming simpler, too. With this in mind, the Wonder Tech Lab team created Switch Bot — a small, app-controlled device that mechanically turns all your switches and buttons on/off from anywhere. - hackster.io
