How bout MyBookSpaceFace?
We'll see if a Regional category could be made. Could make a wiki post to collate some Aus info.
best to keep all info on the forums so its searchable for google.
The more attention the better / easier to help.
Chatted with Bobby and he think it's worth considering to have region categories, but he's concerned for places being left out. I suggested to just keep the sub-categories broad like have an Oceania sub category for AUS/NZ, as well as ones for Europe, North America, Asia etc. We could then use a wiki post in the Oceania category to update information around retailers, and product availability in our region etc. Sound reasonable?

I like the idea of specific category for products at least, always a pain to see a post on something new and cool and we can't have it and then to search around for the equivalent

FYI:
It's Aldi's "Smart Home" Wednesday today
WiFi controllable, 3 port power boards and power plugs, with USB
Apparently they should be flashable
If you have an rpi already there is a new OTA method that doesn't require soldering and pulling apart. I think i'll grab the new tp-link one, even though it's pricey, but I don't have an rpi yet.
Ok, so Aldi is only 500m from my office so I popped in and grabbed a Power+USB Plug for $20.
Inside shots of it.....
Seems well built and they're switching both Active and Neutral
Found this, when I googled - TYWE2S
: CE Smart Home LA WF3 Wifi Plug (TYWE2S) · arendst/Tasmota Wiki · GitHub
@gbrown what's an RPI ? is that the thing for flashing like this ?
Amazon flashing thing
Raspberry Pi 3 / 4. Those little mini computers.
stupid me, had one here somewhere got put it in a box when we moved house and now I can't find it, might have to acquire another one...…...
Yes, I now have a smart home box. Makes life much easier. Soon it will be a cupboard.

Maybe we could get a Category (or a sub-category in the Lounge) so we can stop using a single thread for everything. How about it @bravenel?
Does anyone have the Swann One Door/Window sensors hooked up to HE? It apparently has a temp sensor built in as well. Curious to know if anyone has figured out a way to have the contact and the temp working from these things.
I think it's @bobby who deals with forum shenigans. How about it Bobby?
Yes, Bobby has said he'll chat with the others about it.
I'm afraid I would rather gnaw my own arm off than use Facebook. Perhaps something on Reddit? FastLED is on there.
Lol. Yes that's been the general consensus. 
For those of us on the west coast, Ikea Perth has added zigbee tradfri repeaters to their stock. They're each $19,99, There's plenty of stock lying around!
Was looking at an echo show 5 and bunnings has them for $109.
Or better, officeworks will price match and beat by 5%
Been considering one for ages, and this is best price ive seen - time to go shopping on the weekend!
