Hi Jeff,
We put all our exhibits on a timer which needs to be reset according to whether we are on daylight savings or standard time. If we don't manually reset...
As you note, we have varied hours based on private functions/rentals. It plays havoc with the exhibits. I am curious about this raspberry pi thing, can you please fill us in?
Thx,
Beryl

Has anybody else tried this with their exhibits, or currently planning something like this? Any input is appreciated, as always. Thanks.
