I am almost done building my home and would love to buy 10-30 wall light switches, and dimmers that would control my whole house fans.
Wheres the supply?

I'm interested to gauge the interest in Z-Wave.
I'm convinced that people are not buying Z-Wave, not because they don't like it, but because the future stocking and supply is so, well, limp.

The best supplier I've found so far is http://www.automatedoutlet.com out in Dallas, USA.
Fire off an e-mail to them to check stock availability. Whereas most suppliers I've spoken to give uncertain delivery dates, these chaps at least seem to have a steady flow of UK modules.
I'd be interested to know how you get on with sourcing the light switches as I believe they are rarer than the modules!
You may want to wait until Q4/04 and look out for the http://www.icom-technology.com stuff looks very nice.
We're restocked again. I hope the supply gets better in the future.

Thanks!
I've been dabbling with a few X10 modules for the last 6 months or so and have been very disappointed by it's "clunky" nature and idiosyncratic operation. Fine 10 years ago, but really do deserve better now.
The Z-Wave stuff sounds interesting and I look forward to greater availability of modules, particularly the Icom Technologies stuff.
I feel an order for a controller a couple of plug modules is called for, to have a play!

I have been using the Zwave stuff with Homeseer for about 2-3 months now and I like it a lot.
The only downside for me is not being able to use the remote control with Homeseer, but I believe this is being looked at for the future.
I will certainly be replacing all my X10 modules with Zwave devices.

Anyway, are these units CE approved? Are they "legal" in Europe?
