Is this to avoid having to make 2 trips to the kitchen?<br>
<br>
My solution was an on-demand hot water dispenser!<br>

Subject: [dundee] Network controlled kettle?<br>
<br>
<br>
</div><div>Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
This will perhaps seem like a strange request but that may just be a result of it being 20 past 4 in the morning. Anyway, does anyone have any ideas of how I could get my hands on some hardware to create an ethernet controlled kettle?<br>
<br>
I'm ideally looking for some sort of embedded I/O device that I can plug with ethernet into a router and then fire requests at over the network to turn the kettle on and off. Can anyone suggest anything which would have these capabilities? Embedded Linux would be cool but I was also looking at picaxe micro controllers but they don't seem to have an ethernet connectable board (although if I bought all the bits, I could make my own damn intelligent kettle, they have all the sensors and stuff like that :P).<br>
<br>
It would be a bonus if the components are quite cheap also because that may make the difference between this being a possible dream and an "is it technically feasible" kind of dream :P<br>
<br>
Anyways, thanks and salutations,<br>
Chris<br>
