I’ve been considering this for a while. My plan would be to put a dedicated re-circulating line with a check valve and pump installed on the return line. I’ve been considering the Metlund S-70T. I have an ISY. Can I just get buy a re-circulating pump like the Taco Model 008 and have the...

I just purchased one Philips Marathon dimmable R30 CFL from Home Depot to try it out. I installed it in the Kitchen on an Insteon Dimmer. It takes a few seconds longer to come on than the incandescent bulbs, the light is whiter, and the dim state is not the same, as mentioned above. I...

Can I install a Volume Control / IR Sensor in an electrical box with 110V devices (Insteon Dimmers) if I use a “lowvoltage partition” between the devices? If not, how close can they be?

Thank you - looks just like what I need

All my irrigation control wire terminates in an OnQ Panel mounted in a closet. I have two Rain8Net irrigation controls mounted in this panel. From there, I have ~ 30 feet of CAT5 cable that runs to a serial port on my automation PC. It seems like after every major thunder storm, the serial...

The CQC website has the price listed at $495. How do you get the $315 price before midnight tonight?

Lack of Caddx support for me is why I went with HomeSeer. Looks like I may need to take another look at CQC. Now if it would only support Insteon.

Digger, On your PLC, what is the Firmware version? I think for Power-Home to run, you need 2.12 or higher. Did you install the Power-Home CRITICAL Insteon updates, PowerHome Patch 1.03.4.7-4?

I too was about to give up, but then I tried Power-Home. Order a few more devices today.

I have flickering problem on a KeypadLinc V2 Dimmer. I have it set up for eight buttons with no load connected. I am using it just to control Insteon devices remotely. The keypad will flicker flutter whenever any Insteon device is turned on or off (linked or unlinked).
