Using Apex For Non Fish Related Things

Anyone using your controller for something other than your tanks? I was thinking about plugging a lamp into an empty outlet so I can turn it on at night if I'm going to be out later then I planned.

I'm always concerned about my garage door being closed. If I'm doing work during the day and then close it, I still check it at night just to be sure I closed it. There is a little receiver that lights up telling you if the door us open or closed but my garage is too far away for it to work. I was thinking about installing one if those door sensors and wire it to a BB. I'm assuming I could even wire the inside push button for the garage door opener to the BB so that I could open the door from my phone.

Anyone else with any outside the box ideas?
 
People are using the Apex to control many things beyond their aquariums. To list a few things I've heard of people doing:

  • kids' TVs & computers
  • household lights
  • Christmas lights
  • motorized window shades/blinds
