A €25,000 Loxone smart home was supposed to bring comfort, but turned into an app construction site.
A hangover, motion detectors, and misclicks resulted in sleepless nights and an alarm meltdown. Even on vacation, the worry remained whether everything was really okay at home because the app reported an “open door.”
The book explains in an easy-to-understand way what a smart home is and what complete systems are available. It then evaluates the most important components, such as heating, shading, water detectors, sockets, and switches, based on real-life experiences. You will learn why app-based operation is often slower than a good button. It shows how much complexity is created by protective functions that are often of little use in everyday life. The author advocates for guest-friendly solutions and a focus on a few useful functions.
An honest cost-benefit analysis reveals how expensive comfort can be if you want everything at once. Key message: Start small, keep it simple, and you can achieve a lot with ~€1,500.
