its a myth that insteon and x10 play nicely together - sorry you fell for it

does anyone else make x10 receptacles?

they might replace them - they know their products are crap and are pretty good at swapping crap for crap the isy will be a big help when replacing them - if you need help with the isy, they have a forum - you will need a pc to access the isy http://www.universal-devices.com/ if the owner...

omg never, NEVER give sloop an opening like this snicker

i second the automatedoutlet recommendation - great service and tons of advice - in fact, i'd call them now and ask your questions - they sell all kinds of lines of products

anything but insteon - return to candles and oil lamps before insteon - get nekkid with janet reno before insteon search any forum and read about insteon and the company that makes it

i need some estrogen in da haouzie for motivation - no wife life was simpler when women would swill booze more

let me see if i understand the problem we bought behind loads of craplincs - about $4,000.00 for me (and another $6,000.00 of their x10 crap that can't be used) - these devices did not support the entire insteon protocol, and its 'our bad' that we made that assumption we battled through all...

i should swap them all out for a product that actually does what it promises - i am having a rough time motivating myself to get back into messing with light switches - i did not want it to become a hobby, though i did have to devote a couple of years of my life screwing with craplincs and their...

oh damn he's back - the craplinc malcontent funny that people still defend smarthome - it is a lie that smarthome 'did the right thing' on the paddle problem - they denied it for years and accused everyone of all kindsa stuff so did we decide if 'i2' is real? i know the moderator denied it...

lol - sloop's a trip like that i never agreed to any contract concerning e/mail - not sure if one party can set terms of a contract and force another party to agree just by declaring it valid – but if they want me to delete the post, i will – all they have to do is ask i was a fanboi at...

they don't care - none of this is new - its just another brush fire for them to put out and keep on with their same way of doing business as far as their forum is concerned, i suspect i (and a couple of other craplinc malcontents) am a source of amusement for some of their employees - pressure...

the fix would have to start at the top - which probably won't happen - it would require a complete change in the culture of the business micromanaging the details from the top while ignoring internal communications - an employee (yes, sloop has fans that work there) sent me that info - its...

surprising to see so many surprised by this - this behaviour is the norm for them 'there is nothing wrong with our plms' 'there is no paddle problem' 'socketlincs are super duper' 'that fire was not caused by our appliancelincs' 'the update for houselinc will be out next week' 'the problem is...

QUOTE (Dan (electron) @ Jan 22 2009, 07:18 PM) If those kind of posts are being deleted before SmartHome actually sees them, then the moderator should be fired ASAP. he fought awfully hard to get that esteemed position - of course - he deleted his posts where he flamed any other contenders or...

QUOTE (jlehnert @ Jan 19 2009, 01:54 PM) Smarthome has had QC problems for ages, starting at least as far back with the X10 version of the SwitchLincs. At one point they had some flunkies flaming people on various boards for spreading "false rumors" about QC problems. I guess at the time it...

not a problem here - i still have mine and will repost my pearls of wisdom

i'd recommend posting on the web sites of the retailers that sell their products too - home depot will not post a bad review unless you force them to - after many hours on the phone for several days, they posted mine - they offered me a $75 home depot card if i would withdraw the posts - i told...

the first devices i bought were the x10 switchlinc plus - mike at smarthome (long gone) recommended them to me over the 2-way switchlincs because the 2-way eats the signal strength - the cost (as best i recall was 80 or 90 each) they had the 'paddle problem' too - i never returned them but...

the reason I responded was to point out that the ‘too revolutionary to work’ idea was not presented to me by the manufacturer when I paid them for their product - what I tried to say was that excuse is outright bogus – just tried to phrase it with some diplomacy my second paragraph was...
