Honestly Frank I don't know what all the fuss is about over X10
reliability I find it works 99.99% of the time no problem, bar the odd
cock up which is usually my programming that sucked and not X10! ;)

Well that's the experience with HV anyway, the CM12 experiment went a
tad south. :(

The LD11's are superb a huge improvement over the old LD10, still lacks
status response but that's about all it does lack really (note to self:
DO THE REVIEW!!)

Likewise I would use the hard wired solution too but X10, to me, offers
more flexibility at a lower cost so I went with that and, using HV, I'm
glad I did. I wouldn't anticipate any problems other than the usual X10
interference nonsense and the getting it wired stuff.
