Home Automation Ideas
Thomas asks…
Experience with X10 home automation/cameras?
we bought a whole lot of X10 sensors, cameras, switches etc and can’t get it to work. In ONE room all together it works, the moment you are further aprt nothings works anymore, any ideas?
Matt Matty answers:
Unfortunately, wireless cameras and a good share of wireless home automation devices are still too crude to be of any significant good. I’ve been testing all sorts of wireless security devices for quite a while and they still have a long ways to go. If you want wireless security, your best bet at this time is to go with a known security company like ADT. The DIY approach is still too immature. I have no doubt though that that will change – but not today.

You need a Smart RF Repeater Part # PSXO1 also from X-10. Doubles the range of your wireless devices.
