OT X-10
I regularly employ X-10 modules and sensors to control my 120VAC lamps
and such. THier website is a terror for dial-up Internet users (as am I) though great for those who enjoy pics of busty girls selling electronics. At any rate, what I am looking for is a way to switch 12VDC circuits using the existing X10 wireless motion detectors (Like te Eagle Eye MS14A. I tried looking for an on-line interest group similar to this one for Woodworking and could not find one in which to post such a question or request for help in this effort. So, with OT Apologies, I post this here just in case any or many of you also fiddle with X-10 stuff and can offer some direction if not part numbers. Thanks |

Go to
comp.home.automation. The Universal I/F has output contacts for just that. I forget the model number and things are still packed away from the move, somewhat. It's cheap too. I told X10.com I would never buy from them again after all the pop-ups years ago. Worst I have seen. "Hoosierpopi" wrote in message ...

At any rate, what I am looking for is a way to switch 12VDC circuits using the existing X10 wireless motion detectors One of the modules (I think it is intended to power a camera and run a rotate motor) gives +12V power and +12V switched power. Look up XM14A for more information. |
