Well what happen to x10's new security console seems like they pulled it. Well I personally don't think it should of ever been introduced with all the problems it was plagued with.

The rumor is X10 is in the process of closing their doors. I read on the Homeseer forum that the X10 factory has been shut down and what X10 is now selling is just what is left in the pipeline. Maybe the SC1200 sold out first.

WOW  well I hope that's not the case I always believed they could be a fortune 500 company if they had someone running the company that would address the concerns of their customers like AHP dismal range problem. I will have to stock up if true anyone else hear this.

Hi Brian!! Humm any idea why they are cancelling the affiliate program? X10 is still going to be around aren't they.

Try reading the thread I gave in the previous post.
It also has a link to the Homeseer Posts.

[tom j]

Haven't had time to check out the link but does anyone know if the SC1200 has been in fact discontinued.   Thanks

I don't think anyone knows for sure and those that do are sworn to secrecy.

If the CEPro story and the Homeseer Posts are correct and X10 closed the Chinese Factory.
Not only will the SC1200 be gone. Everything will be gone.

If the story is not correct. Then we wait for the "Big News" post from X10. With the feeling we where duped.

The sales site and newsletter says stay tuned for big news, but no indication on what it is.

Didn't the production facility once exist in Taiwan?  Malaysia?  Mexico?  Maybe just moving the production facility and revamping the line.

I seem to remember the X10 factory was in China.

Yes Tiawan, but X10 moved to mainland China long before it became a business must do. Back in the 1980s I think. X10 "owned" one factory and a factory across the street was "owned" by Tandy/Radio Shark for the "Plug-N-Power" product line.

I am hoping the comment on the Homeseer forum, from someone who claimed to an employee of X10 and said the Shenzhen factory had closed, is just troll gas. However something is going on.

[Brian H]

The fact that X10 Inc. Has made no statement on the Homeseer post of closing the factory being incorrect. Bothers me.
Most would think an incorrect statement would be rebutted fairly quickly.

[dave w]

Yes, I think the same. The "troll gas" comment is simply hopeful thinking.

Hum... Now I'm actually getting worried really would hate it if they went away.

Just make sure you have the widgets you will need for the foreseeable future (including spares).  Since we use mostly Leviton here, and have plenty of spares, it would not effect me directly.
