This Accessory Turns Any Air Conditioning Unit Into A Smartphone Controlled Smart Appliance
In a few years time we would no longer find it surprising to have almost everything around us connected to our smartphones. The world of technology has already evolved much and we have the convenience of managing our thermostats, kettles and lights from our cell phones and the possibilities keep growing on us. And then we were able to control even our air conditioners from our smartphones with the launch of the Quirky+GE Aros a few months back. But it is obviously too expensive for anyone to rip out the older A/C and start again so this problem is solved by the ThinkEco SmartAC Wi-Fi kit.
The kit is basically going to come in quite handy for all those who want to keep their existing A/C setups. It will bring all the features of the Quirky+GE Aros to the current air conditioner installations. This is somewhat similar to the Nest thermostat by Google. In that similar fashion, SmartEco acts as an intermediary module that sits in-between the air conditioning unit itself and the wall outlet. The system will then simply connect through a Wi-Fi system and control the cooling through the smartphone equipped with iOS or Android. This provides a perfect solution for all those who are concerned about their air conditioning timings and want to have a control over it even when they are not at home.
