Thanks a lot Mark, Paul and Phil.(sorry haven't
replied earlier)
SWMBO was very surprised when I t ld her I
was
going t send her shopping!!!
She
became suspicious when I t ld her it was t homebase -*grin* - I think
she expected somewhere more exciting.
However she was good, and went and got a couple of
minitimers, PC kits, Timer kits and Remote kits.
She
also got a Response Video sender @ £39.95, which doesn't seem reduced and
which doesnt have remote control( that one is called Videosender+ I think -
they didnt have any stock). Do you think i should take it
back?
Also
there were no response cameras at the reduced prices - maybe all the stores
don't have the reductions?!
Mark
- how do I download the demo from homeseer? - sorry! - I t ld you I was a
newbie!!!

Hi Vijay
The prices are
so exceptional that you can't go wrong with any of the stuff!
The PC kit is
an
interesting and quick way t get into computer controlled HA. The
"ActiveHome" software supplied with the PC Interface is a bit pants and if
you get it download the demo from www.homeseer.com and give it a
try.
M.
I am a complete idiot ( i think
you all kindly call it a newbie!!) at HA and
have been looking at some
of the sites - esp Mark McCalls and Keith Doxey's
( both of Whom and
all the others who have such fantastic HA setups, I take
my hat off to
and who I hope will give some advice when I can ask some
intelligent
questions). I joined ukha_d a few days ag and was following
the
Homebase thread. Please can someone tell me what kit or kits to get
if a
local Homebase has them? Should I get a minitimer, or the PC kit
or the
Remote Control Kit or the Timer Kit, or would you advise t get
all?
Thanks
