What he said! :lol:

Great thread; lot's of good information; thanks to all who've posted. For Canadian readers, I believe this is the same timer add-on valve, for CDN$18. Not bad. And here is the timer with manifold and two valves for CDN$75. Not so good. But due to difficulty in getting wires from my [inside]...

That's great news, Guy. Has there been any hint as to what the price may be?

Here's the link. Notice it says "...feel free to send this offer to everyone you know!" For some reason, it doesn't state the actual promotional code itself on that page; the code is EFRIEND8. Just use that code at checkout. Note that, as always, the Smarthome checkout will allow you to...

Yes, until the end of May. Right, you made the better choice. But the 20% is good for large orders!

How about the EFRIEND8 20% off???

Agreed. This is exactly my dilemma, and presumably that of many others besides you and I :) . Again, agreed.

Thanks for clarifying. I hope they will appear, but don't think it will be on account of CFLs. People want to be able to dim lights. The legislative push towards CFLs will, I hope, lead to improvements in incandescent, fluorescent, and LED lighting which will be dimmable, affordable...

Hi Mike, IF Smarthome would say, "The KeypadLinc Relays are in the queue, but will take two years to get here," or "The KeypadLinc Relay idea has been abandoned, so forget about them," then at least we would know one way or the other. As it is, we have no idea whether a KeypadLinc Relay will...

Digger, I do believe you've coined a new word, "falky." Is that a combination of flakey and faulty :P ?

Okay, someone please help me out here. I know that Mike can't make any official comment on this, but it seems that he is trying to let us know something by this statement. Problem is, I can't quite figure out what? Reading it one way, it sounds like he is trying to tell us, "It's in the queue...

Dave, thanks for pointing that out. That's an important distinction which I, and presumably others, were not aware of.

IMNSHO, they WERE that misleading. And I have no interest in the RemoteLinc; weeell... maybe if it's actually, genuinely free, then feel free to send me some :) . And yes, I think they ought to swap them at no cost. But hopefully there will be future RF devices which I am very interested in...

Digger, I hear ya! KeypadLinc Relay is also the item I need most. Several locations I would like a keypad, have heavy loads (ceiling fans, etc.) and require a relay. I have no where to place an InlineLinc, as the fans' hood spaces are already filled with RF remote control units, the J-boxes...

:D :D :P Excellent come-back, BSR. Yes, I was referring to British Sound Reproduction (How many here are old enough to have had a BSR record player? Raise your hands.), rather than CocoonTech's own ;) . And here's an article from Uncle Phil which relates some of that history (scroll down...

The power-line carrier protocol, as originally developed by BSR, is properly referred to as X-10. x10 refers to the company x10.com which, as I understand it, acquired the rights to the protocol many years ago. The RF devices were, I believe, developed by x10.com, but do encapsulate the X-10...

Win XP SP2, Firefox 1.5.latest (haven't yet upgraded to 2). Living Room: Turning on TV, spots fade to off but room lights go instant off; they could also fade off. Turning on TV could also close blinds. No obvious way to control lamps. KeypadLinc Lights On appears to turn on some...

Two CM11A's (with ActiveHome CDs), a CP290, a Radio Shack Plug'n'Power interface for the Coco, and some X-10 timers. All unused, of course, since the Ocelot took over a few years ago.
