I was thinking of a controller that has alexa interface, but someone just came out with a new alexa skill for apex controller. I think network enabled devices nowadays pretty much use a cloud service. any ideas on how to implement such a setup? using cloud eliminates the need to do port forwarding and other network configuration. The issue with apex cloud service is the lag/latency is too big. I think it is an implementation issue, as I use other devices that I'm sure has way more users than apex and response is fast.
I see smartthings hub now goes for $49. wondering if it is feasible to build a controller running as a smartthings device. outlets can probably use existing/available smart outlets.
