[Hai-users] A More "Open" Security/Automation Platform

[Wijoyo Utomo]

Brett, I guess what Byron meant by embedded would be hard disk less
system. Or maybe I am wrong Byron?

Regarding the wall wart, I think HAI system with battery backup would be
more or less the same with your resolution Byron.

Best Regards,
W. Utomo
