Hi everyone
I'm just curios as to what the age span is trying to use home automation and x10.
Thought this would be neat info to know(for really no reason other to make me feel better )
I have 4 kids 3 of which are out of the house (1 to go )no really I love my kids.
Most of them think I am off my rocker trying to automate my commercial shop and our house.
Wondering if it's an age thing for me or are they right.
So chime in and give me and others thinkin like me(I know your out there)
This'll be fun

Better question might be what age did every one start trying to automate with x10.
   Maybe another Poll!
Many of us have been using for over 10 years.

For me it was [also] a middle age thing. I know many are younger.

Bought my first Sears and BSR modules at 30ish. Am now geezer age.

[Knightrider]

got my 1st plug n' power units when I was 12 or 13 (1988).  As of now, I'm half-geezer aged.

[Noam]

I first experimented with X10 in college (everyone experiments in college, right?), so I was probably about 22 or so.
That was around 1998/1999.

.... As of now, I'm half-geezer aged.

True.... but your an overachiever by nature. I'd call you an honorary-geezer..... at least.

I've had X10 since the middle 1980's, started with DOS software and the TM109 serial interface,  graduated to the CM11A  serial interface and Active Home, that worked fine until XP didn't like my motherboard and the serial port started to vanish and reappear at odd intervals, so in 2005 went to the CM15A USB interface and  Active Home Professional software.  I have modules with almost every name on them, both lamp and appliance modules and every one of them is still happily working.
