DIY Smart Home Guy Featured Products : https://tbiu.io/j0srj4um Facebook : https://tbiu.io/Kj3kMyqD Twitter : https://tbiu.io/VeMwOGI3 DIY Smart Home Guy creates how-to videos for smart home automation centered around Z-Wave and Zigbee devices. Review videos are generally centered around Hubitat Elevation, SmartThings and Vera. I personally run Hubitat as my primary smart hub, however I do test products on the hubs mentioned. I understand that a home automation hub is not a path for everyone. I chose this path because I am a firm believer is advanced automation and local control. #DIYSmartHomeGuy #SmartHome #HomeAutomation
