2 Wire micromodules

Post by **hopper** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 3:03 pm

My question is about the X10(2nd) load lamp micromodule (2wire, no need for neutral connection), as sold on automation@home.
I do have a couple of lamps that I want to add to my present X10 system by making use of micromodules. These lamps do not have the neutral wire running at the location of the switch.

The difference has been defined by the supplier as follows;

1)3 Wire 's X10 signal sensitive is 25mV , 2 Wire 's X10 signal
sensitive is 100mV
2)2 Wire during dimming will have "Buzz" sound , but 3 wire didn'thave any sound

Since I can't interpretate the 25 vs 100 mV I would like to know if anybody has experience with these modules ?
I would like to make sure these modules work in a home-environment before I decide to buy a couple of these modules.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Hopper,

I'm using two of those devices (LW12) and they are working fine. The buzzing sound you mention, it is either very low, or i'm (finally becoming) deaf

In case of doubt, start with a single module, and check with the supplier if they accept returns.

Cheers,
Willem.
