[OpenTRV-dev] V0.2-Arduino

[Kevin Wood]

Hi Damon,

Good work.

By the way, I have the capability to measure average current over long 
periods as we have a product which does this for mobile phones. Might be 
especially useful where you have very low idle consumption with 
occasional high peaks.

Occupation detection by sound is an interesting idea. Do you even need 
to go as far as an FFT?

Best Regards

Kevin
