RE: X10 in Loo



Hi Tracey,

Nice to be back although trying to clear a backlog of over 500 messages is
a bit of a bugger !!

If some undesirable scroat was eyeing up your house and the light never
ever came on in the loo or bathroom that would seem mighty strange. I
suspect that the loo light will be operated 2 or 3 times per night in most
households.

Hi Keith

Nice to see you back again!

I realise that X10 gives you those facilities but do I really
need them in a downstairs loo?
A simple PIR controlled switch sticks closer to the KISS
principle.
Mind you that's not to say that I won't end up having controlled
lighting, be it X10 or HV in my loo!

Cheers

Tracey
