Is X10 still in business?
As the 'innovator' in pop-up ad's, I thought they had pretty much pissed off every consumer on the planet. TL |

5 or 6 years ago, I took advantage of a promotion that they were offering for a free 3-piece kit. I've been using it ever since to turn a light on or off from my bed. It's been very reliable and convenient. It's also saved me a good amount of money and headache because my aging lamp was burning out bulbs every month or two before and now it's only once a year. Something about the X10's power ramping is a lot easier on the bulbs.
Those ads of their's years ago were quite annoying, but I'd consider buying from, especially seeing that their hardware can be controlled through software. The possibilities seem endless. Are there any competitors in wireless home automation also offer software control? |
