How to make your dumb home smarter without spending a fortune

by John_A

If you go all out connecting your house, you can end up spending as much upgrading a smart home as it costs to build a dumb one. But you don’t need a ton of proprietary gear to pimp your crib with 21st-century tech. Your smartphone and tablet already serve to consolidate your digital life, and they can do the same with your lights, power outlets, air conditioning and nanny cam — even your door locks and Crock-Pot can be app-controlled, if you so please. Join us here to explore affordable options for your entire home, all of which can be installed yourself.
