Halogen worktop lighting in the kitchen since it does not work
correctly with LM10. Same with some cabinet lighting. Flourescent fly
killer device. Fans. Flourescent lighting in the attic (athough this
is in the process of being wired into the lighting circuit and an
AD10 for control) But the best one is a power off button for the Sky
Digibox to do reboots when it crashes and locks up.

Yeah that is a pain. My latest VCR is quite odd. It comes on when
power is applied then goes to standby. I tend to leave AV quipment in
standby when not in use anyway and intend eventually to link it into
the HA PC with IR control.
