    UPB whole house filter

    Martin and Jim suggested that I plugin the filter as close as possible to the breaker box. In my case, nothing is plugged into the filter (no appliance, etc). It's just plugged in naked right under the panel - on the phase where I experience severe noise. Watching the real time stats in...

    Thinking About Purchasing an iRobot SCOOBA

    I've had the 5900 since August of last year. Unlike my fleet of Roombas, I've had lots of problems with the Scooba. 2 main issues. The pump that puts down the solution stops working almost every run. The fix (per iRobot) is to turn the Scooba off and bang the thing on it's side to...

    Flash Hates me, and I hate it.

    I'd recommend trying this uninstaller for Flash. Uninstallers prior to Nov 2006 reportedly don't work anymore. http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase...cfm?id=tn_14157

    UPB Noise problems!!

    Appreciate the post from UPBSeer. Not exactly what I wanted to hear, but I appreciate the candidness of the response. Once the UPB filter/new phase coupler is released, I'll be anxious to test it out in my installation. In the meantime, I've got the 2 PIM (HS and ML) solution in place as of...

    UPB Noise problems!!

    I think we're onto something with this thread gentleman. I hope we can keep it going as we have reason to believe that the UPB guys are tuned in. I'll add my 2 cents. Occasionally, on Friday and Saturday nights between the hours of 8pm-ish and 2am-ish, I hit off the charts noise on one-phase...

    MainLobby Pricing & License Discussion

    Darn. What's going on here? I thought this place was for HA enthusiasts. Feels like we're tearing it all down before we even get started?

    New Touch Screen Paradigm

    Rupp, When you get a chance, could you let me know what setting you're adjusting to get that many connections? I'm only able to get 3 concurrent sessions (console + 2), and I'd love to get a couple more if I could. Thanks!

    The End is Near for HomeSeer 1.7x

    But Skibum has shown remarkable restraint, don't you think? I consider that progress, very substantial progress indeed.

    The End is Near for HomeSeer 1.7x

    Oh dear. I was referring to the phrase "non-biased." Didn't mean to infer your opinion needed any editing. Sorry about that Steve.

    Z-wave scene keypad with local load control?

    I'm quite satisfied with the SA switches. I very much like the flexibility you get with the faceplates themselves, the ability to control the LED color through UpStart, and the label kit. You can color the labels any way you want and the finished look is professional and custom. For example...

    Z-wave scene keypad with local load control?

    You can control a load and have keypad buttons with these Simply Automated UPB switches. Most of my install is of the rocker+4 button variety. http://www.simply-automated.com/products/index.html

    Giving Up On Insteon

    I gave up on Insteon too. After transitioning my entire home to Insteon and running with it for several months, I ripped it all out and put in UPB. The costs weren't that much greater and I've been very satisfied. I don't at all regret that decision. I was tired of fooling with the lights...
