37. Smart Home Technology, DIY Smart Homes, and The Internet Of Things - An Interview With Adam Justice of Grid Connect and Connect Sense

In this episode of The Real Build, I sat down with smart home technology guru Adam Justice.  Adam is CEO of Grid Connect, a manufacturer and distributor of networking products and wireless sensors. He is responsible for developing the vision for the ConnectSense consumer product line, a group of wireless products steeped in the technology of the Internet of Things.  Adam is an expert on the Internet of Things and has also spoken on the topic at many conferences across the nation.

Adam and I discussed everything to do with smart homes and whole-home automation.  We talked about expensive options such as Control 4, and also discussed DIY options to save customers money.  We explained everything a customer needs to know, including the install process and making the system stay connected.  Smart home technology is becoming a go-to in every new home I build.  Homes are being prewired to support this technology.  People are now able to control every aspect of their home from their cell phone anywhere in the world.

This episode is excellent for anyone that wants to learn about home automation products and which products to buy.
