This project looks great! I don't have much time now to read your specifications etc, sorry. But I have one question: I understand that the Things can send data using low power to the cloud, how did you designed your system for the opposite direction, send data to the Thing like commands, without spending too much energy with the RF receiver? Is the receiver always ON? Is it really low low power?
