I have been using Ariston water storage heaters since I was young. After having my own house, I continued using Ariston as I was familiar with the brand.

For my first house, I bought the Ariston Andris Lux. It was a “dumb” water storage heater, so I have to wire up the switch to be smart, so I can control it remotely.

Thanks to Souky, I managed to be one of the first customers in Singapore to install the Aqara D200i Smart Door Lock. Not to be confused with the D200, which is sold only in China, the D200i is the global/international version of the D200.

Besides being able to add to the Southeast Asia region in the Aqara app, The other significant difference is that the D200i supports remote unlocking.
