Android/Arduino Controlled Outlets Parts: 315 MHz Outlets (above) Arduino with Ethernet/Wifi Shield 315 MHZ transmitter Code! […]

At $6 per outlet, they are a complete steal. I got lucky and found all 4 channels of these wireless/RF outlets at a local Big […]

I can control an LED from my LAN now. No biggie. Next steps is to use this RF transmitter to send out on/off commands for these $6 Big Lots wireless outlets. And then… THE WORLD. I mean, an Android app. Anyone else have smart house technology?
