Sorry I am too lazy to care about browser specific web sites.

Fair enough :) Do you mind sharing what's your browser? Trust me, it's been hard enough to work on Firefox, Chrome, Safari, iOS and Android for a first try!

Works absolutely fine for me in Firefox. Top job.

It shows the banner in IE but then it is actually very slow.

Isn't IE 10/11 still the most popular browser?

In the Arduino source, it seems that each sensor has a token that has been hardcoded into the query to send data to the API.

Wouldn't this make it way too easy for somebody to fudge your data by sending fake API requests?

OK, this is epic. Well done guys! I especially like this: https://undo.meteor.com/

I sometimes worry about the privacy implications of making this data public but aggregating by hour seems to alleviate some of this. How do you get staff buy-in? e.g. the undo is effectively a key logger.

I thought monitoring door locks [0], power usage [1] and temperature [2] was fairly advanced. What are you using for the power monitoring?
