....................I have been investigating couplers and or amplifiers to connect my 2 phase service. I was wondering if anyone has any personal experience with using these. If they work, or is it another way .................
Every system/home setup is different.
If you have a three pin 220v dryer outlet and need a Smarthome Plug-in Coupler Repeater (http://smarthome.com/4826b.html) just PM me. I have one that just went on the market.
Let us know how things work out.
Cheers ::)
Thanks again for the link to Jeff.
IF....you have an electric stove with a 220 line, try turning on the oven and the top burners at the same time then test your modules while the oven and burners are glowing. If the modules work, then you have a phase coupling issue that the coupler will solve.
You can also do this if you have an electric dryer (which you don't) or any other 220v appliance.
This will not resolve whether or not you have signal suckers.
dahur,
Have you received the XTB yet? If so, how is the XTB working for you?
The only glitch I have is, in my bathroom I have a light bar over the mirror, and have 6 CFL's there. I found that if I have the bathroom lights switched on, I go back to only being able to use 2 devices. Off, and I get all 7. ................. so I'm wondering if I get a CFL light switch, if that will fix it.

Modules that do not incorporate AGC can see that noise as a continuous series of "1" bits.
Great suggestion. I removed two of the global style ones I've had for years, and left the remaining coil types in, and my devices all function with the lights on.
That's because those two CFLs likely radiated noise in the X10 frequency band, and X10 saw that noise as a continuous series of "1" bits. (Thanks JeffVolp)
