RE: Re: Help to 'sell' me CBUS



Hi Ben

Thanks for your email.  I've been meaning to get in touch for a while to
see
what options there might be for you to get involved; either for advice, the
CBUS commissioning or for the whole wiring job.

I had the benefit of a tour around Mr Cook's setup this morning (thanks
again Gareth) and whilst I went there to see CBUS in action, I've come out
wanting (read needing) Comfort and Sonos too :-)

Once I've got my head around it, and found out how much money the builder
is
likely to leave me with, I'll drop you a line if that's ok.

Cheers

Brian

Another recommendation for Ben here, we were very happy with him. There
are a lot of little gotcha's when installing the Wiser etc. that an
installer will know about and save a lot of time and hair-pulling. I know a
little bit about networks but I think some of it is more tricky than it
perhaps needs to be.

you will even need more than 5/6 scenes. For me that may just become
