Remote light switch has arrived

Sep242010

So attempting to wire that up tonight...

If you never hear from me again it is because I've tried to do some mains electrics by myself and it's gone horribly wrong. Dad helped replace the dry liner that I broke on the bathroom light switch, it seemed to go smoothly, we can isolate the power to one floor quite easily in this house without having to turn off the power downstairs.

This bonus of having several separate ring mains does make me wonder if X10 home automation type stuff is going to work, @hpoom tells me it does not jump reliably across mains like it should. I will try my existing powerline mains ethernet thing later (need it for the XBox anyway) and see...

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
