The BGR Show - Automating a $55M Mansion

The first ever episode of The BGR Show takes an in-depth look at the cutting-edge technology used to automate a $55 million estate in New Jersey. Over 2,000 lights, 48 TVs, 50 miles of wiring, 35 security cameras and hundreds of speakers combine to create a complex network that would be unmanageable if not for an incredible system that lets the owner control it all from a single touchscreen, computer, tablet or smartphone. Nearly every electrical component in and around the mansion - including a waterfall that runs into an outdoor pool and the lighting surrounding a two-story indoor basketball court - is accessible and controllable from anywhere in the world. Of course not everyone has access to a system this expansive, so we also look at how you can automate and control your own home starting at just a few hundred dollars with the Nest thermostat, a Sonos system and AXIS IP cameras.

Niice - Short, simple, and sweet. Some weekly Video footage is a nice addition to the site! Keep it up and am looking forward.

I quite liked this show! As someone who is probably smack in your target demographic (age, sex, income, interests), I will definitely catch next week's episode. I liked how you showed us some simple home automation gadgets and setups that are totally affordable. You've got a fan!

[zsoard]

First show was awesome!!! Keep it coming!!

[Blakeorman]

great show, the products are very innovative and useful. I have the sonos in my house now, love them

[ShalkaDoctor]

How can you be so calm walking around a house like that? I would be geeking out over the tech. Possibly that would be in the out-takes? Yes?

Hello, I know this video is a little outdated but I wonder what is the brand of the cinema’s controlpad ?

[DreamMcClinton]

I was prepared to be bored. But I'm pleasantly surprised. This was really good.

[kuzi]

I like the show i thought it was good...not too techie and it was short and sweet and to the point...and you had Pharell doing the music so that's a plus. Keep up the good work!!

Lol.."...that's probably why they're being sued by Honeywell."

[JamesAlexanderFoxhal]

Can we clone this guy and put one of him into every audio visual shop worldwide please!?!? I think he must be the first person I've heard talking about AV online without the whole audiophile elitist vibe to them. Great find Other!

[FireEyes]

Geller - you should do a review of hair loss products, you need all the help you can get up top.

[xinchen]

Whoever could live there would not worry about saving money from turning off a few lights, and need to hire at least twenty people for the daily maintenance.
