Why use ELK when you have Insteon/ISY?

The ISY/Elk integration is great, it's like they were made for each other. Also, the Elk serves as a great input/output extender for the ISY. You can activate Elk relays from the ISY (for example, for a GDO, motorized water valve, etc).

 

You can do some cool tricks with the ISY using your Elk security inputs as well. For example, if anyone rings my doorbell (and it's after dark), I turn on my porch light. If I unlock my door, the front hall light turns on as well.

 

Anything security or life-safety related I put through my Elk as the ISY is not intended (or certified) for those applications.

Do you have ELK?

 

Would you recommend it?

 

If I have 2 doors, 7 windows would you be so kind to let me know what I need to buy?

 

And if you can please, help me calculate how much it will cost?

 

I know it's expensive, but I do see this as a great investment for my house.

I own a professional AV security company and am an authorized reseller. PM me if you want a system.
