The PHC03/SD533 SunDowner controller is that venerable old trooper the MC460 mini-controller, but with one crucial difference - it's had a light dependent resistor grafted on to it. Like the mini-controller, the SunDowner has the irritating characteristic of only being able to control 8 of the available 16 unit codes on a given house code, without modification... |

The MT7222/MT10 (why is it that every X10 module has about a million different model numbers?) is the bastard offspring off a mini-controller and a clock radio, but without the radio. It's somewhat stocky, and has a bewildering array of buttons on the top... |

Ah ha, spent all that time on Napster and Gnutella, downloaded all those songs and now realised that you can only listen to them on your PC, via those little speakers Dell bundle in. Got that lovely stereo you picked up at Richer sounds, matt black components, great looking Mission speakers with those white cones, but now you don't use it as all your music is on your PC. The Turtle Beach Audiotron, combined with the Intel HPNA (Home Phone network) manages to link your PC in one room to your stereo in another, via your existing telephone extensions, and look good at the same time... |

What the Heck? Yesterday a package arrived containing a prototype of a new X10 device, the IR543AH. So what the heck is that, I hear you ask. Well, read on and salivate... |

My good mate Darren has the "Daddy" of all Cable Testers. It's a Fluke something-or-other and it's amazing! It can ping IPs, generate network traffic, test bandwidth , tell how long your CAT5 cable is, how many metres down the cable the break is (if there is one) and even the date and time the cable was manufactured (ok...I made that last one up). The only problem with this hand held wonder is that it's the same price as a small farm in Donegal!... |

The Marmitek AWM2 micro-module is the first to market of the new breed of modules supporting ACT's A10 (Advanced X10) protocol. The AWM2 is simply a 16A appliance module, but it has two switch inputs: the first controls the built-in appliance module, and the second is transmitted as X10 on the mains wiring. A10 adds an advanced addressing mode, but otherwise is identical to X10... |
