Mister Vs. Fogger

froggy... I HATE HOSPITAL FOOD... alot of poeple say it's good, but honestly it tastes like crap... then again in my family... right b4 you die it's customary to sell your favorite recipes and get rich just in time for the kids to fight over the money... it does wonders to break up a dysfunctional family

jpstod... why x10??? is it price, or a particular function... i usually suggest looking up x-10 and then using something else more functional/reliable/programmable... whatever you're looking for... although there are differences in functionality... one guy in the njagc uses it for water changes... now that's a cool feature!

Basically Yes it was for the price. plus I got the Activehome Pro USB 2-Way Home Automation System. Computer controled I am thinking I can get more control than just using a typical timer in 15 minute intervals.

So far I love the items I have..like the motion sensors..I started putting them on the Door Arches..My kitchen is extremely dark and no switch near the door..before you had to go half way into the kitchen before you reached a switch..now I just walk into the kitchen. I will be putting one in the frog room to control a red light...plus it will turn itself off after awhile.

sounds like it really worked out well for you... incorporating it into the house and then (i guess) adding onto it for your viv... really convenient... plus you can add on in the future (or upgrade???)... as long as you can deal with 15 minute intervals than that's GREAT!... plus if you figure out how to automate enough you can extend your vacations enough to actually have fun or relax... enjoy... i wish i could justify the expense... i am getting 2 new longfin bristlenose plecos though... and they were CHEAP! only $5 ea. and $11 shipping... so $21 total!... not too shabby ime... the regulars are selling for $2 ea... ::scratches head pondering another future purchase b4 receiving first shipment::... not good, lol... good thing the next hatch wont be ready for a couple months

With the Automation program I am not limited to 15 minute intervals...I can set any amount of time I want..
I can set them for 1 second to 24 hour operation.
Say the Motion Sensor..I can have it set for a specific time period..9 pm till 7 am. My Plan is to have another one on the Vivarium Room door frame. Set to turn on while the tank lights are off and only when those are off..A Red Bulb of Course.. So when I am not in there the bulb will not be on..and I can have a a 6500K in the ceiling fan so I can have a bright light I can switch on also if need be, otherwise I can watch my tanks in the red light.
