RE: If building a house would you use X-10?

[Paul Gale <groups2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I certainly wouldn't use X10 again for the whole house - did that for
several years but ended up replacing it with CBus which is far more
reliable and flexible. IME, I had a fair few issues with un-commanded
lights coming on around the house when using X10 - very ghostly! Of course,
it all depends on how much you want to spend though - X10 is certainly a
lot cheaper.
