Title: Overcoming surge protectors?
Post by: tenaja on December 19, 2010, 02:46:05 PM

My laptop power supply and a couple little surge protector power strips are absorbing my x10 signals. Which products fix this? Anybody got a link and/or part number?

I'm sure this has been answered...sorry...but I've search the x10.com site and didn't find the filter--just one for filtering noisy appliances.


Thanks!

The X10Pro XPPF is a five amp one but it should not be pushed to maybe over three amps.
The Smarthome 1626-10 FilterLinc is a ten amp one. I have used that one myself.
The ACT AF120 is a fifteen amp one.
