Subject: [TriEmbed] Hacking home appliances

 

Hey all,

 

I'm itching to try hacking some home appliances (e.g., coffee maker or lamps) using some relays.

 

Assuming you use a relay with the proper ratings, how risky is this?  I'm concerned about starting a fire or something.  Also, would this violate some building code?

 

Best,

Nick
