Hello everyone, this is my first post at this amazing BB. I’ve been reading all sort of interesting posts! For the past couple of weeks.
So let’s get back on topic, I have a small one bedroom apartment and I wanna go ahead and automate it…..
In the first place I was thinking of Z-wave but I think it’s too expensive for a small apt….. So I thought X-10 will be perfect for my situation, I also have access to the electric junction box…..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Will the X10 work fine in my situation “small Apt”?
- Is the X10 CM11A a good choice with HomeSeer in my situation?
- I was also interested in switching the TV and Cable On from HomeSeer What module
should I use?
- Thinking of X10 control, I need a universal remote with RF? If so what do
you recommend?
- As for the modules I was looking into the two way, to get a status. What do you
recommend for a reasonable price?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I’ve been into home automation for a while but didn’t follow up for a year or so. With all the new systems that came out I decided to keep up!
It all started when I was researching to find a good lighting control for my family back home. From what I read and understood the X10 has issues sometimes…. Not switching on or not getting the right status….. So I think Z-wave is the perfect solution for my family…… “very reliable”……. The only problem is that there isn’t a lot of modules like X-10 and what makes it worse is that I need the UK sockets, For my family. How Reliable is HomeSeer any crashes? Cause I will setup the thing at December and leave so no one will be taking care of it….. any advice?? I will also add a Caddx fastpack as an alarm system….
So any advice ?
Thank You,
ALi
