Re: X10 AD10 Din Rail issue - spare parts needed



Hi Rob,

Same thing happened to me, no warning one day when the part broke.

I looked into repairing of having a replacement manufactured, it just
wasn't worth it unless you had access to the right kit already.  A metal
part would be stronger but is also conductive, so not a good idea.

When 3D printers become more widely available, it will be easy to make a
replacement...
