Dave,
 
 Since forever and currently I have been using X-10 controllers and devices.  They have served me well and reasonably reliably over 
 the last 40 odd years and still work well today.  Perhaps, sadly, it's time to move on.  I am looking to use newer devices with 
 newer features.  
 
 I am looking, perhaps, to use TP-Link.  They make plug type modules and 'smart' light bulbs; which are the types of devices I would 
 use.  I have tried each of these devices and I can set them up using their app and an internet configuration on a 'guest WiFi 
 network' so the devices don't have access to my intranet and local LAN, but of course, I would want to use them "offline" from the 
 WEB and only through PH.
 
 I read your information in the PH help, but I would like to get more information on how you set up the usage in PH.
 
 Can you please discuss the controller model # that you used, and quirks in the configurations and the devices you tried, and maybe, 
 if necessary, screen shot some simple code use cases.  
 
 Any information would be useful.
 
 Thanks.
