agree, not 100% reliable, but if you spend a little extra money phase coupler/repeater) and program for problems (all lights off in the morning for missed transmissions etc), then it's really pretty damn good for the price. if you live in an electrical area with extreme electrical noise, I can see how it would be a nightmare, radio shack or the high priced stuff. I've heard there's a newer x-10 power line carrier system that solves a lot of the transmission problems. anybody know anything about it? is the lightolier compose' system x10 or a newer protocol. thx
