My son has a shed for his dogs along with a fenced in area outside
it. He'd like to install a floodlight on the shed so he can check on
the dogs at night. Is there a remote control system that he can use
inside his house to turn on the lights when needed? The shed is about
150 feet from his house.
Any suggestions?


Assuming the shed is on the same wiring system as his home, X-10 has

Kinda loud, ain't they?
Have you bought from them? Good experience?

Seems like a nice price on a 4 camera tiltable surveillance system --
$269 -- Costco has non-tiltable 4 camera, about $1 K, but has the recording
pyooter, iirc.
