    Jasco toggle dimmer and relay switches

    Well I got my first batch in to attempt at replacing my x10 ones.

    Toggle style switches are a requirement due to RiggsFamily Law Order 435544422 under the WAF Requirments section....


    anyway I just wanted to give some thoughts on these for anyone else that is looking into toggle style switches. I know I have seen other threads where they too have the same Law Orders as I have...


    First the OLD
    X10 2 way 23890w ToggleLinc switches

    Pro:
    • 2 way communication
    • Toggle Style
    • LED
    • Looks like standard lights witch (except springs back to middle location)


    Con:
    • Switch is pretty thick and wires require wire nuts thus creating a jammed filled box.
    • After years circuit board can pop out if handled difficultly (children)
    • Programs via Wireless (I use palmpads)
    • Still uses X10 A-P and 1-16



    Now onto the Jasco
    Pro:
    • Zwave
    • 2 way communication
    • Toggle Style
    • Screw terminal style so no wire nuts needed allowing more room in box
    • Looks like standard lights witch (except springs back to middle location)


    Con:
    • LED missing (HS store description says LED ????)
    • Narrow Toggle - looks and feels different. Not bad but just really smaller

    so you can see the Jasco toggle next to a normal house switch (yes some still left in the house!)

    then you can see what 2 - X10 ToggleLinc switches look like...
