There is a PAC going on ebay at the moment, =A3148 / 330AUS +
shipping, may=
be =A320, the guy is willing to ship to the UK.

Looks like a good buy at the moment to anyone in the UK not thinking of
goi=
ng down the Home Vision route.

Hi Andrew

I thought the special was on the Homevision Pro only ????

>I think the HomeVision and Kevins C-Bus Interface can be bought for=20

How much does the cbus pac sell for in the UK....????

>Is there any reason why I would still want a PAC?

Not if you have Homevision and Kevins Interface....Currently i havent set
u=
p Kevins interface but i can still control the CBUS Matrix switcher using

I think the HomeVision and Kevins C-Bus Interface can be bought for less=20
than the C-Bus PAC.

With the recent speical offer I imported the Home Vision and telephone=20
interface for =A3229, the Home Vision by itself would have been =A3173.

Would this be a better option for automation and logic compared to the PAC?
Which is the more versatile/easier of the two to program?

Also, is a Home Vision required for Cbus to Sonos inter-working?  I'm yet
t=
o=20
commission my Home vision but looking forward to it.

Is there any reason why I would still want a PAC?

Just want to mention that you should also take a look at Idratek products
-=
=20
you should be able to so this for well about a third the price of C-Bus
-=20
although you wont have the sexy Saturn switches.  There are switchplates=20
with inbuilt PIR's and also switchplates with relays or
dimmer channels inbuilt.     These latter switches would have to be
outisde of the bathroom however , and they can replace existing
switchplate=
