Re: remote light control



Simon,

(I presume you will have power in the garage, just can't connect it to
the existing switch)

You could wire your spare switch into an X10 powerflash module and
wire the garage lights to an X10 appliance module. Switch pressed in
the house triggers the X10 module in the garage. If you go for a
momentary switch in the house you could have another momentary switch
in the garage directly wired-in to the momentary contacts on the DIN
rail module.

HTH,

Tim.
