I know on Oahu, certain parts of the island are very dry while others are extremely wet. I haven't seen evaporative coolers on this island. They might be here, I just haven't heard of anyone using or talking about them. Many peopl

I believe they went with bluetooth because all smartphones have it, it doesn't require a special base station and can send simple serial commands fairly easily from an iOS app. Honestly though, I prefer wi-fi over bluetooth because I c
