List of objects that can interact with wire signals

Hey everyone, so 0.12 introduced not only combinators but also made a number of existing buildings able to interact with logistics signals. I was not able to find a definitive list of all the interactions since 0.12 and it doesn't seem to be documented in the friday-facts.

So far this is all I've found:
  • Smart chest, all logistics chests (purple, blue, red, yellow) and storange tanks provide their contents as a signal into the network.
  • Smart inserters, electric pumps, offshore pumps and lights can run conditionally based on a signal.
  • Combinators do the combinator stuff.
Pretty please let me know if I've missed any.

And just for the sake of completeness, here's some random stuff I tried:
  • Nothing train related connects :( (signals, stations, junctions or trains)
  • No production buildings connect to anything
  • No power or power storage buildings connect
  • No turrets connect
  • Research labs and module broadcasters do not connect
  • Regular chests of any kind do not connect
  • Splitters and belts do not connect
  • Roboports do not connect
  • No vehicles connect
  • Radar does not connect
  • No inserters other than smart inserters connect
  • Wall gates do not connect

Nice list, mind putting it up on the wiki and referencing the wiki article in your original post? (I've seen numerous posts in this forum with outdated information hence I feel it's in place to nudge people to the wiki instead where the information can be kept updated by the "public" so to speak ;) )

Liquid storage tanks can connect, as of version 0.12. There may be other objects that can now connect, that you have missed.
