Yah but it's a wireless camera. Do they ever have deals with wired cameras?

You can always put a wired cam on it. I did! ;)
Or you could convert it, the instructions I believe are posted on the forum! ;)

I'm afraid I'd end up with the camera lens soldered to my one of my fingernails if I tried that, Tuicemen. rofl :-[

I find the best deals for my liking by going to the main page, Pornless, and in the search area type the model number of the main item I am looking for. Doing this I get all types of deals in relationship to that product, I cant seem to find any of those pages any other way, always a deal hiding somewhere.
Here is one for a wired cam I was looking at before. http://www.x10.com/products/sc23a_sp_2cv_39c144.html
This way I don't have to go through all the porn stuff, of which seems to be slowing down just a bit.

Like I said in another thread. My theory is; the X10 Marketing Director is about 17 and still in high school. IF he is older and has a degree in marketing, then he probably purchased it while trolling for trollups, bobbing for bimbos, and fishing for floozies, in the Bahamas.

Yes, and the "Black Friday" advertising reached a new low for x10. I was embarrassed to access the x10 website from work---it looks like a pornography site.

But back to the topic of deal news and alerts, anybody seen any really good deals lately?

Hmmm pornography site that's kind of harsh! Maybe soft porn.  rofl  Someone at x10 has a sexual obsession, kind of insulting at times, my wife doesn't like it at all.

HEY X10 how about a WIRED camera deal.

I just (yesterday) received my WIRED nightwatch camera, VA12A Video Adapter, and VanGuard Software for $49.99. I haven't been able to get the Video adapter work with my XP [home] Computer... still a very good deal. THANK YOU X10.

Hey Dave:
Please let us know when you have your VA12A up & running, and what have you done to make that happen...
I'm struggling to make my VA12A to work... I'm using Vista... and tried the drivers that are posted at the X10 website and the drivers that Vista downloaded from Windows Update...  No luck either way...
I can watch the video feed using the composite input in my tv tuner card (so I know that the camera & receiver are working)...
But cannot make the VA12A work...

Vista setup was a breeze... I setup my Vista laptop to make sure it worked. However... I am having a bit of a problem with my Home Automation PC... which is an XP [home].

For the Vista I upgraded AHP with (the buggy) 3.236 version. And I also downloaded the VA12A drivers from HERE. I rebooted and all was well.

Thanks Dave !

I did install the drivers from the same location you pointed me to.... but unfortunately, the only thing I get in the AHP camera monitoring screen is noisy lines...

But, as I'm using AHP 3.228, would it be reasonable to say that I cannot get this thing up & running because of 3.228 ?

I never had 3.236 installed in my computer (when I purchased AHP & CD15A, the version was already 3.228, so that's the one I was able to install...)

Would you suggest "downgrading" to 3.236 ?
If the answer is "yes", where can I download this from ? 
Thanks !

Go to http://software.x10.com/pub/applications/activehome/   Everything AHP is there.  Beware, though, 3.236 is considered a buggy version of AHP, too many have it and downgraded to 3.204 because of it, then upgrading to 3.228.

Yes I did.

My old P3 is a bit slow for the VA12A and BVC. So I am using a VA11A... but still getting better results that a VCR.
