Lighting system such as GJD that has app notifications

[Lee.121]

Hi All,

I'm looking for a lighting system to connect multiple external pirs in zones to control external floodlights, GJD is an option, however it might be a big ask I was wondering if anyone has come across a system that has an app that notifies when motion is detected..

I know GJD beeps and has a voice notification but no app connectivity. Is it possible or am I just on cloud 9....

Appreciate everyone's time.

Thanks
Lee

You could fit gjd opal elites and use the extra relays to connect to an alarm system to give you app notifications

Whatever you end up with do not, under any circumstances, have anything to do with cloud-based, internet-based, solutions.

Run a mile from anybody who tries to get you to use such a solution.

Here is just one example of why:

Imagine if the last example sometimes happened because of flaky servers or comms? What if it suddenly happened because the manufacturer went bust?

- think of the implications of unplanned and permanent failure of the servers because of business failure. Or as with the Yee lights they just decide to shut down your access.

Or as happened to this guy you're a victim of corporate DGA* incompetence
