just curious if anyones using x10 modules for automation around the tank or their home for that matter. seems like a fairly inexpensive way to automate but I'd love to hear any feedback and just wondering how applicable it is in the hobby overall.

I use then with my Neptune Aquacontroller, I find them to be quite finnicky and unreliable. PM me if you have any Q's

Same with me. I haven't been able to trust them for anything and have since stopped using them. They seem to turn on and off whenever they want. They will actually turn on and off when I want them to too but there's no consistancy any other time. I contacted Neptune and they said that it's probably interference from appliances but that's what I would say too in order to pass the buck.
