Couldn#t have put it better myself. If we could have some of the Leviton
switches in UK format, I'd gladly cut of my right arm :) It really does
seem
that the only way t  get half decent X10 in this country is t  fit the DIN
rail modules as part of a new build, which sort of defeats the point of X10
really.
