Forget about the painstaking chore of twisting on your leaky garden hose or watering tool every time you want to water the lawn or wash the car. The Easy Slide Garden Hose Connector now makes these connections a snap, and also prevents leaks and drips coming from the connection points. There are no rings to buttons or rings to push. Attach the first of the two-piece connectors to your faucet spout and one end of the gardening hose and the second to the other end of your gardening hose and your watering tool…now you can quickly slide and lock the connections together. You can also use the connectors to attach multiple hoses together or even on your RV for easy setup. When you are finished, just disconnect the hose and watering tool and store them out of sight.

Controlling electronic devices throughout your home can now been done through a single piece of equipment, the EyeOn Automation Central Control Server. It was designed to integrate each electronic sub-system in your home with automated features that can have these systems work independently or together, letting you decide the right set of combinations that will benefit your life the most. By itself it doesn’t do much, but as you add electronic subsystems to your home such as lighting control, video, audio, security, surveillance, infrared (IR), access control, climate, shading and intercoms; the server will bring it all together in one manageable system. While we recommend using this product in combination with an EyeOn Automation In-Wall 8.4″ Touch Screen Controller, it does work as a standalone server allowing for a web-based connection from anywhere in the world so you can use your computer, PDA or mobile phone to access and control electronic devices in your home. Additionally, it is capable of receiving IR commands from a universal remote control. Administering custom settings, schedules and programs can be done with the ease of this single control server, and with a single press of a button you can have every system in your home turn on or off, whether you are sitting on the couch or relaxing on vacation.
