    Yup, been there ... done that, and it still isn't 100% reliable.

    With an aquacontroller, the controller and the X-10 modules would be on the same circuit, so I wouldn't expect you would have problems. But you still have those **** loud relays.

    I'm surprised no one has come up with a solid-state X-10 module that could do the switching without the clicking. But in any case, the whole X-10 standard has way outlived its day.

    I couldn't get them to work on the same circuit due to noise and feed back from lighting in my house, it's all fluorescent.

    Yeah, the electronic ballasts are what screwed up my X10s on my controller.
    They do offer a controlled setup that is almost the same as the link that Alex posted. But that is just MORE $.
