X10 module for led lights.
X10 is simple yet robust and the possibilities are endless.
If you figure out what equipment is generating the powerline noise an x10 noise filter can be used to fix the problem.
It looks and operates virtually the same except it has a relay that cuts power on and off.
Dimmable led bulbs should be 60w equivalent or higher.
Set your certain lights on a timer or turn on and off your house lights with a keychain remote before you come home.
X10 remote control switch and module commands travel from x10 transmitters to x10 receivers through standard household wiring.
The beauty of x10 is that it allows you to automate and control your lights and appliances remotely.
Led bulbs dimly illuminate when the x10 appliance module is off and some cfls fool the appliance module s local control circuitry and force the device to stay on.
But if unacceptable hum occurs use the xps3 wall switch module to provide x10 on off control only.
This project kit is a very simple circuit which does not defeat the local control feature of the x10 module.
If you have alternative lighting like led fluorescent halogen etc grab an am466 appliance module instead.
Unfortunately there is no way to determine whether hum will occur without actually trying it.
You can t hear powerline noise but if you have too much of it your modules won t be able to hear the x10 signals.
With both lamp types the local control function does not work.
X10 is the most affordable option for home automation and the ws467 wall switch is a great example of that.
