I wonder how we'll adapt trying to be sure that the switch is in the correct position when trying to turn lights on from somewhere other than the room. You'll have to flip the switch to the ON position before you leave the room, hoping that it won't turn it on as you leave. I like the idea of...

This seems to still be pricey though. Even a Ra2 setup from a good pricing dealer may be cheaper; 1 LED switch at $120, Main repeater at $350, and bulbs at $10-15 seems that in the long term after buying the bulbs and continuing to add the switches, it can't be a lot more. Maybe not, but $40-60...

Yes, thank you.....I just finished the module that explained that. That's more understandable.

I've been considering Jetstream for light control if it can accommodate LED/CFL light loads. I see somewhere in the Centralite docs that they have some kind of piece that may allow LED/CFL loads, not sure. Does anyone have experience using those bulbs with jetstream? Erik

Hi Dan, thanks for the welcome. First post but have read for awhile. I do have dealer access on the Ra2 stuff. At one point I was considering a small Crestron system and I was going to buy the gear from them. I still might use them for the gear, install it myself and then have them program...

Well I seem to be down to two candidates for retrofit lighting. I want something affordable, scalable, reliable, and attractive. Lutron seems to always get the nod for quality, reliability, and customer service. So I now set them as the standard and go from there. Not interested in...
