Re: Insteon or Zwave?

Thanks for the heads up on that, I think it may be worth a try. I've
been playing with PowerHome but until I get my arms around it, the
tap-tap method is still my SOP.   BTW, re: quality issues.  So far I've
found 2 defects among the 27 Insteon devices I've installed to date. One
is a bad V2 Wall Dimmer that won't remember it's ramp rate or dim
settings and the other is a bad Keypad Linc that won't control anything
other than it's native load.
