I installed my first proof of concept Insteon KeypadLinc this week.
IMHO...
1. Not the best looking thing.
2. Backlight bleeds over into other buttons.
3. Backlit buttons are not always in sync with which lights are on. I suspect line noise?
4. The paper inserts are a little less than desireable, however I saw some alternatives in another thread.
I haven't done much with the scenes yet. I'd like to create an all off button and a theater button although I'm not sure how to do this yet.
I don't think it even passes the husband acceptance factor for looks. I just happened to look through a home automation magazine at the bookstore the other day and found a few very nice looking multi-button switches (not insteon). Maybe we'll see something a little more stylish in the future. They are fine for a business or maybe even a laundry room but I think they are a little too industrial looking for a home.
I'll try looking for line noise this weekend on the Keypadlinc's circuit to see if that's cause it to get out of sync with other switches.
