Are you talking about a KeypadLinc or a SwitchLinc dimmer? Are these dimmable CFL bulbs?

I can't answer with 100% certainty because I suppose it's technically possible to still have some interference but we have had great success with the dual band dimmers. One of our installers has been using half dual band dimmers in his recent installs and has been really impressed by the...

Simplehomenet has a light sensor with both analog and digital output. You can adjust the trigger level of the digital output. http://www.simplehomenet.com/proddetail.asp?prod=79357342314 http://www.aartech.ca/ezeye-simplehomenet-...ght-sensor.html Cheers
