Re: Time for HA, finally. Thinking Insteon. Mulling this for 20 years. What is best?



The Insteon people say that there will be two networks in the home, one
for automation, one for media, and that they will be non-interfering.
Hmm, maybe that is why the HPCC HA stuff is last in their development.
Perhaps they will merge with Insteon.

Wish they would make an in-socket wall plug, but they are probably
wrestling with the conundrum of dimmer or switch.

The Insteon people have continued to produce new products, and they
offer a 7-year warrantee.
So I just placed an order:

a powerlink usb controller, rf repeaters, dimmers and switches, finally
after 20 years of research, hemming and hawing, and waiting!

Thanks for your info.  It helped finalize my decision,

especially you Dave, since you have a website full of X10 into and
research, and still recommend the Insteon.

Happy new year, all.
