Title: MS14a or MS16a?
Post by: BoyntonStu on July 29, 2010, 07:09:02 PM

Need 4 motion detectors with 30 minute delay.

Prefer white color.

Any advantage of one model over the other?

Is there any MD in white other than the MS10a?

A search of the X10 site only lists the outdoor dark grey MS16A and MS14A from the above list. The indoor white MS13A and MS15A are not listed and may no longer made.

I believe the X10Pro PMS02 is white and can have its time to off set by button pushes.

You can do a Google search or EBay search as many dealers carry the X10Pro line.

You can find more details on the X10Pro web site.

The Installation section has the PMS02 users guide in it.
The X10Pro Cross reference page indicates the PMS02 equivalent an X10 MS13A

I've settled on the MS16's because I like being able to disable the dawn/dusk sensor.
I covered up the lens with blue tape and then spray painted a few of mine to match the house color.

I'm just a few steps behind you with the MS16's.

They have been shipped.
