This is a home automation project that I was very excited to start, it can switch on and off some lights with help of a IR remote control, it turns on a ligth when you turn off the main ligth in order to give you 2 extra minutes of ligth, then it will be off. It also controls the warmer of my room, it can be automatic or not, as you set it. You can introduce the range of temperatures that you want your room to be in. As the fan uses a lot of power (2000W in high mode and 1000W in low mode) I automated the high mode to be on just for five minutes and then rest for five minutes to work again, in the low mode it can be on for 30 minutes and then off 5 minutes. At night the ligth of the lcd will be off (blue ligth is not good to sleep at night). For time settings I used a tiny RTC I2C clock. There are some more cool features you can change and improve :)
