RE: x10 lights turning themselves on - help please!



We had an X10 ghost before we converted to CBus. Had a mains filter
fitted but occasionally, lights would turn on. Very spooky! Changing the
X10 address might help if there's some device somewhere putting out
interference that the units are mistaking for a proper X10 signal.
